The great outdoors

When the temperatures start to rise, it’s that time of year when we all want to spruce up our outdoor spaces. With summer kicking in, nature’s beauty is right at our fingertips, and it feels like the world is our playground. But where do you even start? Let’s chat about turning your outdoor area into the ultimate summer hangout!

There’s something magical about enjoying those sunny days with friends and family, whether it’s lounging by the pool, firing up the barbecue, or simply soaking in the fresh air. But to really elevate your alfresco experience, the right furniture makes all the difference! From cosy coastal vibes to vibrant bohemian flair or sleek modern minimalism, there’s a style out there to match your vibe. So, let’s dive into a few fun trends that will turn your backyard, balcony, or patio into the go-to spot for summer gatherings!

 

Slim Aarons-inspired décor

Bed Bath N’ Table Lumiere Candle $39.95, Eureka Furniture Beachmere Timber Sun Lounge $1,999, Freedom Alcoa Outdoor Rug from $1,199, Freedom Davenport Planer from $119, Freedom Fitzroy Outdoor Cushion $39.95, Outdoor Living Large Throw Cushion $79, Pillow Talk Sundays by Pillow Talk Capri Stripe Scalloped Fringed Beach Umbrella $149, Provincial Home Living Soho Director’s Chair $229.95.

First up is Slim Aarons-inspired décor. Known for his iconic work as a photographer, Aarons had a unique talent for capturing the glitz, glamour, and leisurely lifestyles of the elite. Just one glance at his stunning images transports you to sun-drenched days in the south of France or lounging in Palm Springs with an icy martini in hand. This décor style embraces natural light and vibrant colours, evoking a carefree, aspirational vibe.

To achieve this look, focus on incorporating oversized, comfortable seating – think plush lounges and sun-soaked chaise lounges that invite relaxation. Use vibrant cushions in rich hues or bold patterns to add pops of colour, and don’t shy away from mixing textures like rattan, linen, and cotton. Add in natural elements, like lush greenery and potted plants, to create a sense of organic beauty.

Lighting is also key; opt for string lights or lanterns that cast a warm, inviting glow as the sun sets. And, of course, set the scene with elegant tableware for alfresco dining – think chic glassware and vibrant table linens that echo those dreamy summer days. With these elements, you’ll be able to channel that Slim Aarons style, turning your outdoor space into a glamorous retreat.

 

Tuscan terrace style

Bed Bath N’ Table Morgan & Finch St Tropex Thin Stripe Chair Pad $24.95, DecoRug Tall Abstract Ceramic Vase $19.96, Freedom Growing Herbs Book By Beaglier Books $29.95, House Porto Brittany Set of 4 Goblets $49.99, Pillow Talk Sundays by Pillow Talk Finley Insulated Picnic Basket Set $119.95, Provincial Home Living Kylix Urn $139.95, Provincial Home Living Olive Tree $79.95, Provincial Home Living Paradiso Umbrella $1,299.

The Tuscan terrace trend is one that blends terracotta hues with vibrant whites and fresh greenery, creating a dreamy space that transports you straight to Italy. It’s all about creating the feeling of sipping a glass of refreshing wine under the warm Tuscan sun, surrounded by décor that radiates rustic elegance. This style is perfect for summer gatherings, injecting every outdoor event with that unmistakable Italian flair that makes hosting feel special. After all, when it comes to entertaining, the Italians truly know how to set the scene!

To bring this look to life, start with warm terracotta pots filled with lush plants and herbs like basil and rosemary. Opt for a dining table made of weathered wood paired with comfortable, cushioned chairs in crisp white or soft neutrals. Layer in vibrant table linens and colourful ceramics to create a stunning tablescape.

 

Indoor-outdoor design

Bed Bath N’ Table Morgan & Finch Serena Vase $34.95, Eureka Furniture Antoine Oak Dining Chair $449, Freedom Miro Dining Table $2,199, Freedom Sonata Outdoor Modular Sofa $3,499, Pillow Talk Habitat Piscina Check Fringed Floor Rug $299.95, Pillow Talk Muse Remmy Candle Holder from $14.95, The Furniture Shack Tequila Sunrise Outdoor UV Wall Art $249.

No need to adjust your glasses; the line between indoor and outdoor living is delightfully blurred – and for good reason! This trend is all about creating a harmonious environment that elevates your lifestyle and makes your home feel more expansive. You can easily achieve this look by incorporating earthy materials like stone and wood, which bring a natural touch to both spaces. Layered lighting is key; think strategically placed fixtures that set the mood and extend the usability of your areas into the evening hours.

Equally important is choosing chic yet durable furniture for your outdoor areas that mirrors the comfort of your indoor pieces. Look for plush sofas and stylish dining sets that encourage relaxation and foster a laid-back vibe throughout. You can also enhance the connection between spaces by adding large glass doors or expansive windows that invite the outside in. By focusing on these elements, you can easily integrate indoor and outdoor living.

With summer on the horizon, it’s time to roll up your sleeves and turn your outdoor area into the ultimate hangout spot. Whether you’re channelling the effortless elegance of Slim Aarons, embracing the warm charm of Tuscan terraces, or blending indoor comforts with outdoor living, the possibilities are endless. By selecting the right furniture and décor, you’ll create an inviting space that’s perfect for everything from cozy family dinners to lively weekend get-togethers.

colour drenching living room styling

Everything you need to know about colour drenching

Colour drenching, the practice of bathing every surface in a single uniform colour is gaining a whole lot of momentum at the moment. This bold yet surprisingly simple technique has the power to elevate any room, making it feel more spacious, serene, and right on trend. But don’t be fooled, colour drenching is not just about slapping on a coat of paint; it’s an art form that requires careful consideration. By eliminating visual noise and creating a sense of continuity, this technique can make even the smallest spaces feel airy and expansive.

The colour drench design approach has its roots in the Impressionist era when artists like Claude Monet experimented with bold, unifying colours. Fast-forward to today, and it’s experiencing a renaissance of sorts. Designers and homeowners alike are embracing it, and the results are ten out of ten.

So, why should you consider colour drenching for your next design project? For starters, it creates the illusion of space by erasing visual boundaries, colour drenching makes rooms feel larger and more open. It also hides imperfections – that unsightly air conditioning vent or uneven surface? Making them all but disappear.

Ready to give this technique a try? Here’s how to make it work.

colour drenching sage green living room furniture, decor and wall art

Bed Bath N’ Table Morgan & Finch Trailing Eucalyptus $29.95, DecoRug Crescent Framed Canvas Wall Art $84.96, Freedom Cosh Table Lamp $69.95, Freedom Willow Fabric Armchair $1,449, Pillow Talk Muse Frankie Stripe Feather Cushion $69.95, Pillow Talk Muse Soho Capiz Check Tray $59.95, Plush Violet 3 Seat POA, Provincial Home Living Lucerne Compote $169.95, Provincial Home Living Talia Basket $69.95.

Step 1: Choose your canvas

First up, you’ll need to consider where you’d like to apply this trend. Although you can incorporate it in any space, colour drenching works best in bathrooms, hallways, and stairways – anywhere you want to create a sense of flow. You’ll notice that many luxe hotels and hospitality hot spots often opt for a single-hued bathroom featuring monochromatic terracotta colour tiles or sage green.

 

Step 2: Select your shade

Be sure to consider the room’s purpose and the furniture you’ll be using before selecting your colour. Rich, bold colours can add depth and luxury, while softer hues create a sense of calm. If your goal is to make the space appear larger then steer clear from dark hues. It’s wise to think about the furnishing to be used in the room also. If you have a stunning navy armchair this same hue or something a touch darker or lighter would be ideal for the paintable surfaces.

 

Step 3: Paint with purpose

Don’t be shy when it comes to painting – coat every surface, from ceiling to skirting boards. This step is a non-negotiable when it comes to colour drenching every surface must be painted with the same colour to create a seamless look.

 

Step 4: Add subtle pops of personality

When it comes to colour drenching, your décor plays a vital role in enhancing the overall effect. To add depth and visual interest, incorporate smaller pieces that break up the space while complementing the dominant colour. For instance, if you’ve chosen pink as your primary colour, select an artwork that features pink prominently but also includes a splash of orange. You can then subtly introduce more orange through flowers or a vase, creating a cohesive and harmonious look. By thoughtfully incorporating artwork, flowers, or vases, you can add layers of visual interest and break up the space, preventing the colour from feeling overwhelming. Once you’ve finalised your furnishings and décor options, your colour drench space is complete

 

Ready to try colour drenching for yourself?

There you have it, colour drenching is more than just a fleeting design trend – it’s a game-changer that can elevate any space. By embracing a single hue, you can create a harmonious, visually appealing space that leaves a lasting impression on all who enter. So why not try it out for yourself? Introduce this innovative technique to your home and discover chromatic bliss!

baby nursery decor

Little wonders: how to prepare a nursery

Expecting parents have a lot to consider when waiting for a baby to arrive. There are hospital bags to pack, car seats to install, baby showers to plan, and diapers to buy – and that’s all before there’s a tiny human to raise! However, one of the most exciting tasks to ponder before your newborn arrives has got to be the baby nursery decor; the design, theme, and purchasing all the essentials. 

The nursery is about to be a place where you’ll spend many hours of your time for feeding, changing, or putting your little one to sleep (or should we say attempting to). So, you’ll want to invest some much-needed time, effort, and funds into ensuring your nursery is decked out exactly how it should be. 

We want you to have one less thing to worry about when your newborn arrives, so we’ve compiled everything you need to know into one place. Read on to learn all about navigating your new nursery.

Baby Bunting Boori 3 Tier Changer $269, Baby Bunting Ergopouch Cocoon $49.95, Baby Bunting Living Textiles Cotton Rope Storage Set $39.95, Baby Bunting Owlet Baby Monitor $249.99, Baby Bunting Zazu Nightlight $59.95, Bed Bath N’ Table Morgan & Finch Pete Pretzel $29.95, DecoRug Luka Shaggy Colour Rug from $199, Forty Winks Boori Corindi Cot $649, Freedom Evie Rocking Chair $1,299, Freedom Mornington Dresser $1,699.

 

Designing your baby nursery

There are four main factors to consider when designing your nursery – the placement of the cot, glider, changing table, and storage drawers. 

The cot should be positioned first and should be placed away from any windows or doors to limit temperature changes, air drafts, and light exposure. Next up, place your glider (aka feeding chair) into a corner nook, ensuring it has enough space around it to rock. Once the cot and chair are placed, slot the drawers and changing table in the leftover space. 

Tip: For those who are working with a smaller space, we recommend using your chest of drawers as a changing table as well. 

Now that all the key pieces are appropriately placed, it’s time to sort out the lighting. Having a dark room will promote the release of melatonin (the hormone that helps us to both fall asleep and stay asleep). So, be sure to purchase block-out blinds as these will keep the room dark for both nap time and night time. You’ll also want to limit any artificial light such as baby monitors – place these away from the cot so that the light isn’t in the baby’s line of sight when they’re in the cot. 

Baby nursery décor

Now onto the fun part – the baby nursery décor! Before getting carried away with an elaborate theme, it’s important to keep in mind the top priority of a nursery and that’s for it to be conducive to sleep. You’ll want your newborn to be exposed to as little stimulation as possible, so avoid using too many decorative pieces that can distract them. Refrain from placing toys or hanging mobiles in and above the cot, in fact, we recommend no toys in the cot until four months of age, which also happens to be the optimal time to introduce a comforter. 

This doesn’t mean you can’t have a super stylish baby nursery – you can still stick to a colour palette so the room is cohesive with the rest of your home. Start with a neutral base for the furniture and then add accent lighting, wallpaper, artwork, rugs, and more. Even if tastes change, your accent pieces can easily be swapped out while keeping large investment pieces the same. 

Tip: incorporate thick pile rugs and drapes throughout the room to help absorb outside noise. 

The essentials

Lastly, it’s time to ensure you have all the essentials for a functional nursery. First up, it’s important to baby-proof the room – secure blinds and electrical cords, keep any medicines out of reach, and set up a baby monitor. 

Next, purchase a white noise machine (this will help silence your baby’s built-in alarm clock by drowning out all outside noises during vulnerable phases of light sleep), a swaddle (to make your baby feel safe and comforted), a dim nightlight (to help navigate night time feeding), and of course, nappies, bedding, toys, and clothes. 

There you have it! We hope this helps you prepare accordingly for your newborn with baby nursery decor. Be sure to download our first-time parent nursery checklist here to better prepare you for the arrival of your little one.

4 tips to a well-dressed bed

Looking to the achieve that hotel feel right at home? Get started with these 4 tips:

Vary the sizes, colours and textures of decorative pillows

Different sizes and colours provide interest and variation. To achieve that hotel feel, go all out with layers of European pillows, multiple standard pillows and at least three decorative cushions to finish it off. The result is dramatic, plush and polished.

Play with colour and patterns for a more casual look

Simple, clean white bedding can be offset with a highly patterned coverlet for an artistic feel. Pillow Talk in Aspley has a beautiful new range of quilt cover sets and throws this Autumn to help add colour to the bedroom.

Or, if you want to spend some day in Alexandria Sydney, the Alexandria Home Centre has a lot of stores for you, as Decorug, Brescia Furniture and more.

Invest in good sheets

The easiest way to snazz up your bedroom is to outfit your bed with a gorgeous set of sheets. To keep the hotel room look, go for a crisp, white set of sheets that are at least 1000 thread count.

Hotel rooms tend to use sateen or percale sheets, but you should choose the material that feels most comfortable to you. The experts at Sheridan Factory Outlet will be able to help you put together the perfect set to fit any look.

Consider the lighting

You’ll notice that almost all hotel rooms have lamps or sconces on either side of the bed. This always helps pull the room together visually and also allows you to turn off the overhead light and create a warm and cozy mood in your space. Set the mood with Andrews Light Up to finish off the look.
