Baskets, Baskets and More Baskets!

As you can see from these photos of our kitchen and laundry I love old baskets, especially picnic and fishing baskets. Just when I think I have enough, something too lovely to resist appears and I have to rearrange!

It's the Weekend!

Have a lovely weekend!

White on White

If you love white like I do then you should like these rooms. Love the picture frames, the retro cane chairs and so love the polished concrete floor. How good are the outdoor benches painted white - so simple and effective.

Caribbean Living

There's something truly magical about the Caribbean - from the original plantation houses to today's island living. The verandahs, overhanging roofs and shutters that keep the houses cool in this tropical climate, add so much charm to this small piece of paradise. It must be the most beautiful place to live!

White Bathing Beauties

No wonder white is such a popular colour for bathrooms. I love the black cabinets used to store towels and the dark floor boards. Bathroom "must haves" - lots of fluffy white towels, a deep bathtub with an endless supply of hot water, candles, vanilla bubble bath, music, a good book and a glass of champagne - what more could you wish for!
