Home Decor - Vintage maps

Out to lunch with some friends over the weekend I was seeking some recommendations for places to visit in Europe - a few places were thrown about, France, Italy, Germany..... As most of you correctly guessed I have started an amazing new job so unfortunately travel is on a back burner for a short while.

I Imagine Berlin would be a beautiful -loving this beautiful Berlin Map pillow, the fabric got me thinking (and googling) beautiful old maps from the web...

The stairwell spruce up & Basil the Gazelle finds a home

Over the holidays we completed many projects, one was to give our stairwell a spruce up and find Basil the Gazelle a home......Yes a Gazelle a home - for Christmas my adorable sister gave me this ceramic Gazelle head. We picked him up on a trip to the Sunshine coast & he traveled back to Sydney with us by aeroplane (he is a well traveled Gazelle). 

 So Basil came quite plain and white - I didn't think that it would be fitting for such a beauty to be washed into our bright white walls, so I set about making him a glamorous home.

 Very happy with the stair project & I think Basil likes his new home!
