Filling up the piggy bank! (and then emptying it)

We got a nice surprise in our bank account last week.


Some company from the USA.. Google or something like that paid us the hefty sum of $1.02 as payment for the advertising and clicks that have taken place on our blog in the past 12 months.


I have spent the whole week wondering where I am going to spend it! 


Freedom's divine new winter range, that where!


Loving these beauties...

I love the natural textures of wool and wood in these. I'd love this sort of thing in our sitting room. Cant you just imagine sitting in front of the Jetmaster on a cold Melbourne day?

Not sure if this fits with our modern look or bamboo floors, but the timber is lovely, has so much character!

I'm especially loving the pendant in the centre! Clean and contemporary  but not too industrial!

This gold side table is DIVINE! and at $129... a steal!

The new cushion range are also pretty special! Soft colours to brighten up winter! $34.95 each...

Finally I've still got my eye on this bad boy... The King Furniture Concerto 20 modular package in beautiful black leather... just waiting for the mid year sales...

Until next time (stay tuned... things are hotting up in the next few weeks... FINALLY!)

These are a few of my favourite things...

We are still making the decisions, apparently when building a new house in the end you make over 50,000 decisions during the whole process. I think we have already surpassed that and we havent even started the build.

I thought I would post some photos of the features we have decided upon...

These will be our basins and taps in the ensuite

 This oven is the one I have selected instead of the stand alone cooker, the reason being I hate the gaps that exist between the oven and benchtop, too hard to stop food from going down the edge. I also love the extra drawer underneath to store baking trays and racks in... genius!

Our ensuite but we arent having the shaving mirror.

The kids bathroom will be similar to this but the mirror wont be as big.

The grand outdoor room, a bit dark but the size is magnificent

Our sitting room will look similar to this with the windows being slightly more narrow. I think we will also put some art or a family photo above the Jetmaster... This will be my sanctuary :)

An idea i have for the lounge/family area

I would like pendants like these over the dining table I think.

Thats all for now...
