Chistmas In Teal

Loving this Christmas inspiration in teal.

This relaxed but stylish coastal theme is right up my alley!

Everything about this setting is just perfect.
from the chic teal, silver and white decorations to the beautiful table setting.
Every detail has been perfectly considered and not a thing is out of place. 
Nothing beats a real tree in my opinion.
I love the smell and the ritual of heading off to the Christmas tree farm to select the perfect tree.
They are always a bit of a hassle,
getting them straight, keeping the water up to them and getting rid of them after Christmas,
but it's all well worth the effort!
 Even if mine did fall over twice while trying to decorate it!!!
I also love all the natural elements in this scene, the wreaths over the fireplace,
the fresh floral mantel decorations,
even the pendant hanging over the dining table is adorned.
Ten out of ten for this first class setting from Monika Hibbs.

Ocean Blue + Turquoise

Summer is without a doubt my favourite season.

I love the casual ‘kick your shoes off’ attitude of this season.  Long hours spent at the beach, by the pool or simply watching the kids hop through a sprinkler.  Late night lingering over BBQ's under starry skies, laughter ringing long into the night. The welcome evening breezes that arrive just in time to blow away the heat of the day.  Toes in the sand and sunsets over the ocean, that is quintessential summer to me.

Shades of Turquoise & Aqua

Shades of Summer .....

Turquoise, aqua and sea green are in my opinion the ultimate summer colors. What can be more beautiful than the shades of the ocean, tropical lagoons and Mediterranean seas? These images are a collection of the things I love about summer ~ they reflect a happy summer vibe and exotic travel destinations.

Surfside Colour Palette

Keep things relaxed and carefree with organic textures and beachy colours.

Looking for a chilled beach house vibe then
create an eclectic coastal feel in your beach house by
mixing and matching different styles of furniture.
Think boho beach house meets vintage chic.
Mix in earthy textures, rustic elements and organic fibres
to create a lived in, nostalgic mood
designed for kicking back and relaxing!
