cHALK tALK - Letterboxes

over sized letterbox available at Lump  - right here in Melbourne

With all the houses I am lucky enough to work on, it does amaze me that the humble letterbox/entry often gets forgotten in the mix.  First impressions really do count and as for so many of our homes our letterbox is often the first introduction to our house!   Neglected letter boxes are a big no no and no letterbox at all is even worse!  Your street number should be clearly visible and offer a hint of what is to come. Don't forget about the detail - A beautiful home deserves a well thought of letter box. 

Here are some of my favorites 

shop these boxes from here, here and here

Right Now - tear sheets

excuse the dodgy iphone photos

tear sheets are one of my favorite things to do - they inspire me to try and do new things - I love using them to for  new colour combinations, they help me think outside the box - ooh, one thing I rarely cut - mostly always torn sheets from the magazines I love.  Peep closely at the geometric cupboard covered with wall paper - Zuster have used this same wallpaper in the front window of their showroom - very bold, but nice, saw it today.

look who's got a new dog!

certainly not every bodies cup of tea, but definitely mine. I bought this little cutie at the Zuster Sale, what do you think? I plan to use it to pep up a tired old spot at home.

look who's moved into Interior design

have a look here, they have just developed an interior design arm to their business - wouldn't it be wonderful to work with these very talented sisters??????
