Room Love: Mint

















Mint green is still trending in a big way in the fashion world, and this fabulous colour is featuring in many a stylish room, as well.

I'm on the hunt for mint home accessories, like a cushion for the sofa, and maybe a thrift store lamp painted mint, to add a splash of colour in my home for spring and summer. I absolutely love the mint pendant lights with gold on the inside, and the mint chair, shown above. It's amazing how a single accent colour can make a huge difference in a room.

Hope you all are having a lovely week. I'm really looking forward to a couple of things going on this weekend. 

First, I'm planning to show Glen and his daughters how to carve a Jack-O-Lantern tomorrow, to prepare for our first Halloween together. That should be interesting (I'm expecting to hear some "ewww"'s from my audience, when I pull out the pumpkin "guts"). Halloween is beginning to catch on here in Australia, which makes me very happy. I hope this will become a favourite family tradition for all of us.

On Sunday, we're going to the Adelaide Home and Gardening Show, which I'm sure I will enjoy. Obviously, I love that kinda thing. I will be like a kid in a candy store there! Maybe I will take some photos to use in a post about the show. (If I'm not too busy daydreaming about my Dream House!)

Have a beautiful weekend, everyone!

Wedding Wednesday: Ivory Elegance





















A wedding featuring a classic ivory colour scheme conveys a timeless beauty and elegance. My favourite details from this wedding are the delicate table runner, beautiful ivory cake with floral topper, mismatched silverware, and lovely ivory and green floral arrangements. This wedding's true show-stopper, though, is the bride's exquisite ivory chiffon gown. The bride is absolutely radiant, isn't she? (Swoon!)
