Around my home...

I just thought I'd show you some colour in my home, there's lots more, trust me, this is just a teaser! The little enamel pots came from Tree of Life - a great ethical homewares shop in Sydney so you know your dollars are going some way to help those in India that made these beautiful things. The cushions, on our bed, are all thrift at $3 a pop, except for the black and white one which I pick up for $6 from a local dollar shop. I have more of them on our sofa! The starfish/flower over our headboard is our ode (amongst others) to beach living, I bought it from a gift shop in Manly more than a year ago. The angle I took this photo it looks miles above the bed but it's not!
Phew I'm beat, this week has been intense, I'm so ready for the weekend!! Hope to catch up with all of you then, thanks so much for stopping by! :-)

    Your cushion display is super - each one individually beautiful, and perfect together.

    Cannot believe you bought most of those cushions from a thrift store. They are gorgeous and I love the pots as well. A bright and happy home.
    Have a fab weekend.

    The pretty floral containers are gorgeous! I think I'm in need of a few new cushions - I am thinking I might get my butt in gear and make some :)
    Have a great weekend!
