Beautiful collections

I could stare at these images all day of India Hick's home in the Bahamas and still not grow tired. Her ability to arrange objects around her home in beautiful displays is no doubt a consequence of having David Hicks (one of my favourite designers) for a Father.

Rearrange and transform

A lovely summer palette of inspiration. Try grouping objects together in new ways to see how they look first before placing them around your room as suggested by Lynda.

Object placement can completely transform. Try something new.

I have been following Lynda Quintero-David's blog for a little while now and particularly love her recent post on her home and thought I would share it with you. She is a fashion and home stylist and merchandising expert. She has such an eye for placements of objects and you can see her merchandising background coming out. Simple things can transform a room like cushion selection and placement and the display of artwork. See her blog today focal point and be inspired. Enjoy your Tuesday, it's wet and bleak here, a good day for rearranging your rooms. Enjoy!

Contemporize with Geometrics

I find it so interesting that a simple geometric cushion or rug, can change a room from traditional classic to contemporary. Or from bland to cleverly designed. With so many new geometric patterns around at the moment why not play with some pattern? Start with some cushions and as you become more adventurous add larger areas in rugs or wallpaper.
