I have a down to earth approach with my clients which I pride myself on, getting to know you and what YOUR needs are and how to fit design practically into your family. Apart from my main day to day work of designing rooms and colour consulting I do things to help out people that are time poor, like hanging pictures, sourcing items, ordering furniture, getting trades, and having things custom made just to name a few. No job is too small, so give me a call if you are after something specific or to find out about my pricing, every job is different and individual, a simple 3 colour paint scheme for $50 or an hourly rate for larger jobs. Moodboards start at $250 and include all info of where to buy. I can also pass on fantastic discounts at furniture retailers, recouping your spend with me most of the time.<br />

<u>PERSONAL INTERIORS SHOPPING</u><br />
Take advantage of my extensive experience in the furniture industry. Buying furniture is a huge investment and sometimes it can be overwhelming when trying to choose the right piece. I know furniture inside out and can help you make the right decisions when buying furniture such as size, colour, feel and fit. I can do measure ups and furniture layout.<br />

What sparked my motivation (not that I need much when it comes to decorating) was that I had my beautiful new curtains installed a few weeks ago! They are stunning, just what I wanted. I'd been waiting a while to be able to afford to have the style I'd dreamt of! They are an S fold style on a double track with sheers overlaying a full block-out curtain at the back. The room feels so luxurious now.<br />
<br />
A big thanks to Sarah and Michelle at Bendigo Curtains for making these beauties @ <a href="http://www.bendigocurtains.com.au/">www.bendigocurtains.com.au</a>.<br />
If your needing curtains or blinds or help designing the right window furnishings for your home go and see Sarah and the crew. They have moved into their brand new showroom on High Street in Bendigo, next door to where I work actually. It has been fun helping them design and furnish the fit out the Hi-Light Blinds/Bendigo Curtains new showroom with gorgeous things from my work @ <a href="http://www.makeyourhouseahome.com.au/">www.makeyourhouseahome.com.au</a>.<br />
<br />
Other things that are new to the room are the bedsides, they were once dowdy old brown ones I picked up second hand that I have brought to life with some paint and handles. I also had this beautiful green leaf fabric that I made a cushion cover out of. Now I am on the look out for two new reading lamps that fit in with my style to finish off the look!<br />

It is quite a hard room to photograph as it's small and all that light flooding through, well just makes it difficult so i have done my best with the photos!<br />
Hope you like it!<br />

I know, I know, very early but I was inspired after reading a Chrissy magazine and knowing all the weekends leading up to the big day were fully booked out for us that it may be the last lazy Sunday I had to do it! I didn't put much out this year as you will see, it only took me the afternoon and I must say I felt so organised after it was all complete knowing I had many weeks to enjoy it and there wasn't going to be a rush to put the tree up!<br />
<br />
I decided that I was going to go with a theme of copper and white. I wasn't prepared to do-away with all the decorations I already had and buy new, I think that's a little extravagant as I would be likely to change the theme again another year. Instead I spray painted some of my old non-sentimental ones copper keeping aside all my white ones I already had and then I bought a few new ones as well.<br />
<br />
It was a little windy outside so I set up to spray inside, not a great idea… it was getting a little foggy and the copper overspray would quickly ruin my kitchen! So I made a booth, just one of those plastic storage containers on its side, popped a box inside that that had been poked with toothpicks to rest some decorations on and got spraying outside this time! HaHa<br />
<br />
I was really pleased with the result and no one knows they weren't bought that way!<br />

I'd been on the look out for some type of tallboy or dresser for my bedroom and thought this one had nice clean lines with a straight bevelled edge on the drawer (not rolled) so it was a little more modern straight away. With a few coats of white paint and some new knobs I thought it had heaps of potential so I bought it!<br />
It was fairly easy to paint, I did three coats of white satin after a light sand and undercoat. It only took a few hours of work in total but in-between coats and our busy schedule it was a few weekends to finally get it in my room and filled. I'm really happy with the end result and it fits in our room nicely.<br />
Enjoy the before and afters below!<br />

So while he was away for a few days these holidays I made-over his bedroom as a surprise on his return and because the house has been so quiet with them away I didn't know what to do with myself! The starting point for his room was the black and white crosses…. I was originally imagining a charcoal crosses quilt cover set but it seemed that it was quite popular and out of stock at the time I wanted one, then silly me didn't order it. When I decided to decorate I saw the black and white crosses throw rug glaring at me on sale in a shop window and I thought right I'm doing Flynn's room this week! I had already purchased the photographic canvas and the metal arrow shelf and I had scored the transformer posters free from a shop window display. The big pieces of furniture I've had for a long time and the lamp and bedside a from good 'ol Ikea. I found a fairly simple white doona cover with tiny little arrow detail on it which is also reversible to charcoal which will be handy for a change up. The fake white lambswool will be moving to my room I have decided, as it got dirt on it the first moment he walked into his room!<br />

We did the Easter egg hunt and festivities at at our local town park for a few hours, we went to Mass and caught up with some of our wonderful friends. The main excitement for us was the new Chimenea I bought... I saw that one of my fellow bloggers had found an old Chimenea and did it up, that enthused me to look for one, when I didn't have any luck finding anything second hand I got impatient and went and bought one! </span></span><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue Light, HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">We had been meaning to get a fire pit last year but winter came and went and we didn't get around to it. I</span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"> ended up with a Chimenea rather than a fire pit. I figured it would be less messy and well I just liked it, it comes with a handy cover and you can cook on it, we grilled a banana haha! which was lovely with ice-cream, otherwise Flynn burnt some sticks on it. Next time we're going to do roast potatoes in foil.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">I absolutely love it, sitting by the fire on my new couch (details on that later) toasting marshmallows, poking the fire, and getting warm in this chillier weather. It was so lovely all of us sat around together for hours, the girls still had their electronics but it was so nice to be together laughing, chatting and listening to music with my Mum and Dad there also.</span><br />

About the couch... on Saturday I snapped up an old cane lounge.... about 5 doors down the neighbours had an old red cane setting out on the nature strip for council pick up. I made Mark stop so I could check it out, mmmmm I thought a bit of a cleanup and spray paint it would come up well. I was surprised that my 2 gorgeous girls carried it all the way home for me while I loaded the chairs into the car! 4 cans of spray paint later and the couch piece is done finally in white! It is very comfy and we will get heaps of use out of it. Here are some snaps from our weekend!</div>

Over Easter we will have a lot of family time and celebrate with friends, go to Mass and celebrate the true meaning of Easter then I'm sure the Easter Bunny will deliver lots of Easter eggs!<br />
<br />
I had been fiddling over the weekend with some bunnies and fake eggs and today decided to decorate our dining table (we eat round every night) and enjoy it for the week leading up to Easter.<br />
<br />
I just did it on a whim and made it up as I went along… its my modern/vintage mixed-up style tablescape. It's just stuff I had in the house to decorate it really, the only thing I bought were the easter eggs! Actually Hubby was out at the shops so I called him to say grab me some Easter eggs please, I gave him a brief.. "small eggs in pastel colours, you know pastels right? and some cute small bunnies or something plain, you know my style? babe just do your best" he went to 3 shops and it totally stressed him out, he had a lot of trouble finding what he knows I like and came home with a bag full of stuff which I picked out just enough small eggs that were OK! (you can picture the rest… Easter bunnies with faces and big eggs with lovely pictures on them LOL!) love him though! The rest will come in handy for Sunday.<br />

It would be nice if Sundays were actually a day off for me but not quite… nearly every Sunday I tidy over the house (I don't have a set routine for house cleaning so just do it as I see it), do all the clothes washing and the food shopping oh and a bit of cooking ready for the working week ahead. Hubby helps out too, so I'm a lucky gal!<br />
<br />
I'm not that good really at running a tight ship or anything, but find myself so much happier when organised… funny that! Im sure you feel the same way.<br />
<br />
Today I am feeling super organised after inspiring myself when I decided to move my glass notice board into the kitchen thoroughfare. I originally made this for my girls to keep track of their homework <a href="http://www.insidehomeliving.blogspot.com.au/2013/06/diy-glass-notice-board.html" target="_blank">(see the post here)</a> but seems that didn't last long and now they have laptops I can only hope they have everything under control... I doubt it! <br />
Now that all the kids' sports have resumed for the year I will be busier than ever driving around for training and with our appointments, parties, meetings and dinners we can all see what's going on!<br />

<br />
I don't pride myself highly on being organised at home. I'm no super working mum and don't want to be either, I never want to set myself up to fail 'that' standard so I keep it real! I can get myself into a messy situation just like anyone else by ignoring the house for days and send lunch boxes full of crap to school when I have no food in the house, but mostly I am on top of it because I get a little crazy and nasty when I'm not in control and that's no good for anyone living here! I'm not perfect and I'd prefer to be happy and have happy household and to do the things we like and take time for myself (often) than be mental about my house and stuff, that's why I pour a lot into Sundays so I can enjoy my week, I don't feel so guilty watching TV shows at night and playing on Instagram or Facebook and blogging, they are a way for me to be creative… I'd go mad without it I reckon.<br />
<br />
Even if its just one thing to make you feel more organised its a good start… Today I came home from the supermarket and had this urge to make chicken soup as I was going through the vegetable crisper cleaning it out. So that's my work lunch for the week sorted! It was so easy I thought I'd share, here's the recipe…<br />

<br /></div>
I had a very eventful weekend around the house doing lots of jobs. I got the re-decorating bug which isn't hard for me, it's been a few weeks since I last re-arranged something haha.... And a while since a DIY project. In one of my previous posts I said I was going to recover my ottoman in the family room, so one of my jobs this past weekend was to do this. I decided to go with a plain fabric, I just didn't find a pattern to work, there are other patterned furniture in the room on the other side so it would probably have clashed and this way I can do patterned cushions and switch them out when I feel like it with others! I have ordered some new cushions I'll show you as well.<br />
<div>
I should say that whilst my house has a traditional feel to it and I love the modern country/french style, I also love contemporary, modern classic and mid-century as well. When we renovated I chose colours, fixtures and fittings that would tie in with almost anything so that I could change my decorating style down the track. I am slowly going to change things over to a more modern look but still eclectic, I can't get rid of special things just to stay on trend and I think it makes a house a home having the things you love! We have been thinking about another house so this will tie my creative bones over until the next big thing is able to happen!</div>
<div>
<br />
<div>
So here's the old ottoman... From an old modular, the colour just didn't go with my inherited mustard sofa...</div>

I thought it needed something extra and found these upholstery studs I've had in my craft box for years and years, I had enough for 7 down each side, so took the punt and nailed them in! I'm happy I did, it just adds a nice finishing touch I think.</div>

It looks a little purple in the photos... I can assure you it's not, I'm not going crazy!!! It's in the same tone as the grey/brown back cushions as the sofa. (Being closer to the camera is playing tricks and I can't fix it)</div>

Hope you like it? </div><div><br></div><div>OK...</div><div><br></div>I have been so inspired lately working with these beautiful linens. I would love to to put them in all our bedrooms at home but that would be bit extravagant right? I might start with the little fellas room first and absolutely love the crosses for him (pictured in green) but in charcoal I think.<div>Is linen your thing? How often do you splurge on a new Doona cover? I'm pretty good and stick with white for myself now days and change the cushions instead, it's cheaper and helps control my addiction to changing covers haha. White suits my traditional style room at the moment but as soon as I ever go modern again I'll be getting one of these for sure! For the kids I can be a bit more adventurous and maybe do a new one each year. Maybe it's time?? I feel a trip to the shops coming on... If your after a change up for Autumn these gorgeous ones are available from www.makeyourhouseahome.com.au<div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF3r9cal-Wb-rF-dQfa_WG93Yqn1L66tl0UeJ5cxap4Aj4ooqJJhM9Xd-HrlpOLhyphenhyphenuGlFFYU_L5qK4s_Z7RFL1-FoQRqRqTIUFEirOhWVI2ACeQ6TRFeySygQH0AuHys9menqxErikBHo/s640/blogger-image--375480608.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF3r9cal-Wb-rF-dQfa_WG93Yqn1L66tl0UeJ5cxap4Aj4ooqJJhM9Xd-HrlpOLhyphenhyphenuGlFFYU_L5qK4s_Z7RFL1-FoQRqRqTIUFEirOhWVI2ACeQ6TRFeySygQH0AuHys9menqxErikBHo/s640/blogger-image--375480608.jpg"></a></div><br><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOmyfrQa3Rl39RBeQN8B1b2xbN0j4TPUko8C1tWGS3kOUVdCLrr53V7wBTviQ589BAr5JRhXj2u4-Cd60Cjvg8UX0Yr-0-xlIspMwT0BXM1QEvY7w3t3iwBFwTuyXTeHxZLIUkyF3oqYo/s640/blogger-image-717902120.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOmyfrQa3Rl39RBeQN8B1b2xbN0j4TPUko8C1tWGS3kOUVdCLrr53V7wBTviQ589BAr5JRhXj2u4-Cd60Cjvg8UX0Yr-0-xlIspMwT0BXM1QEvY7w3t3iwBFwTuyXTeHxZLIUkyF3oqYo/s640/blogger-image-717902120.jpg"></a></div><br><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2VYqWlvcpejv2EtjI-C-H9-GW021jtwD0vx6vRb3G0WKKOWjr-G51V1FRhXfGJ4Q1KSFWO2TGi1g79-ZCb-wrf-L0Sw7lBHVAMBnVyy5EPET4hs8VYKbP1NPa49N3mL9fWKJqeZxNJ0Y/s640/blogger-image--581364290.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2VYqWlvcpejv2EtjI-C-H9-GW021jtwD0vx6vRb3G0WKKOWjr-G51V1FRhXfGJ4Q1KSFWO2TGi1g79-ZCb-wrf-L0Sw7lBHVAMBnVyy5EPET4hs8VYKbP1NPa49N3mL9fWKJqeZxNJ0Y/s640/blogger-image--581364290.jpg"></a></div><br><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2xCqVAhvi0WMzFVv5Ym0KxrLwAAKPCRHjY_dnKzli395ip-Tba7_XExQrR2bw7fw1zCMMuKaDCNypUHmyeF6SklygKzP9VlQgwiwMgi1SuQstIPuAMdQdD2pZCLeDRqkDX-fWujSXBwY/s640/blogger-image--899217895.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2xCqVAhvi0WMzFVv5Ym0KxrLwAAKPCRHjY_dnKzli395ip-Tba7_XExQrR2bw7fw1zCMMuKaDCNypUHmyeF6SklygKzP9VlQgwiwMgi1SuQstIPuAMdQdD2pZCLeDRqkDX-fWujSXBwY/s640/blogger-image--899217895.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Have a great weekend guys</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Carla x</div><br></div></div></div></div></div>Carla @ Inside Home Livinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10509976744126426128noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-487664813866134751.post-45492658395024371612014-01-19T16:20:00.001+11:002014-03-01T06:41:53.685+11:00NEW LOOK LIVING ROOMWe were recently given these beautiful big sofas from my Mum and Dad. My first thoughts were 'they aren't my style' and I ummed and ahhed about whether I'd take them, I just wasn't sure how I was going to make them work in our house! They are such good quality and soooo comfy I would have been mad to say no to them, so I welcomed the comfort with an open mind. As a result I have had to go quite traditional with my styling which is not really the way I was heading (I was trying to pair back a bit and go a little more funky and colourful but not to be). My styling is eclectic luckily and they are a natural fit in this old house, the room seems to blend in well with the rest of the house so I am happy with the overall look. We had new carpet laid in here not so long ago and the room is sunken so it is a very inviting and comfy area for the whole family (including my little photo bomber our dog 'Franklin'). I do need to recover the ottoman, I realise the colour is not working so I am on the look out for some fabric, I have a few favourites below but not really sure yet. You might like to help be by telling me which one you like from the fabric swatches below from left to right 1-4?<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicSGKAASxfC6XfQdAsCpsB3YtA9nl6t9Us9_7KUQY4nGYYx2q5Jg16rzXi_OG1J9qZEeXE9Wtz-wDyJNHptw2G_1X6CYgF63FEx2ZtQpsS86wio7ankyY0hM9WTOmyqUEdOmYt6HpGvaw/s640/blogger-image--555560831.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicSGKAASxfC6XfQdAsCpsB3YtA9nl6t9Us9_7KUQY4nGYYx2q5Jg16rzXi_OG1J9qZEeXE9Wtz-wDyJNHptw2G_1X6CYgF63FEx2ZtQpsS86wio7ankyY0hM9WTOmyqUEdOmYt6HpGvaw/s640/blogger-image--555560831.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgGA6nuAJ7pfrmj_gDfd6KuaiYcCFp9o5l53XlfFDiOB4c15dqmhN9kxk0ZlkzEToDrxTXwNUwNPzRxNjD3h8zRNQxRtT-8cpToncxv4uC15iwhqdtsMsisgzVGGEj41STi7246jR5sls/s640/blogger-image-1787908232.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgGA6nuAJ7pfrmj_gDfd6KuaiYcCFp9o5l53XlfFDiOB4c15dqmhN9kxk0ZlkzEToDrxTXwNUwNPzRxNjD3h8zRNQxRtT-8cpToncxv4uC15iwhqdtsMsisgzVGGEj41STi7246jR5sls/s640/blogger-image-1787908232.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcqcwCrrRW2_jFPC1TnZnoUiOrJSxd4Ai9_0JAidIBH6nMCecOiPZ6rIk41_TKpTjuBHTczeUzrTkfTKiSGbNTZs-iEQiM3xRosLythy__buPigvu_SIclkC9FVRRRdwNCfaRuXSe1DH4/s640/blogger-image-1743011673.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcqcwCrrRW2_jFPC1TnZnoUiOrJSxd4Ai9_0JAidIBH6nMCecOiPZ6rIk41_TKpTjuBHTczeUzrTkfTKiSGbNTZs-iEQiM3xRosLythy__buPigvu_SIclkC9FVRRRdwNCfaRuXSe1DH4/s640/blogger-image-1743011673.jpg" /></a><br /><br />Fabrics 1. 2. 3. 4.<br /><div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
on 2013....We spent many weekends renovating, demolishing, gardening, building, making, sanding and I did a lot of painting, and more painting, and I'm still not finished outside. Meanwhile we both work all week in our day jobs and have 3 very busy kids but I never sit still for too long, there's always something to do.</div>

No! I will never tire of it. I love it at work and at home. <div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Today I changed over my quilt cover and while I was at it I did a quick 10 minute makeover. I bought these floral Sheridan Euro covers years ago and had never used them because they never really matched the decor in my room. So I just changed over to the frames on the wall for a while and pulled out a few cushions from storage to make them work. Bingo! a new look in 10 minutes! A change is as good as a holiday, so why don't you change up a room before the new year and give yourself a fresh start!</span><div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Everything continues to evole at my place, nothing ever stays the same for too long but I go back and forth so it's not costly.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><div>This is how it was.... http://www.insidehomeliving.blogspot.com.au/2012/11/pop-of-colour_6.html</div><div><br></div><div>And now.....</div></div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggDSEuKesEzZlyxDIrbifvrJqdEO3OOtGla7krNgsvb8M1JL0BXhVRv4MreY-wCdw07TOMcS5eJ_gWN5vBf2wwBpSNJQJQLRAil8HyDle9Ll2sG3_S4jg1Vu8mtKVWLlkBqzgpxU39Nm0/s640/blogger-image-845794210.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">It has been nearly 2 years since we moved in to our home, in that time we have completely renovated the inside of the house. Most of it was done very soon after we moved in and the rest, well there has been a list of things to finish off! I have been successful in getting those done since Dad moved here, I'm so lucky to have a builder for a Dad. Now that inside is all done we recently got back to the outside to do a few projects for summer entertaining. </span><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">We had initially tidied up the yard when we moved in, it was a complete mess and had been let go, we ripped everything out to start again. I planted out the garden bed with lavender and some other shrubs and creepers on the fence. The pergola was a light green colour so we painted it charcoal and added a shade sail over the area off that that would become the entertaining area. There was a big dirt patch under that for some time and initially I planted some hedges along the bottom of the deck but I transferred those before we poured a new concrete slab a few weeks ago. We painted the slab with grey concrete paint and some of the old concrete paths as well to make it all the same. We had the exterior of the fence painted last week which looks so much better, like new! The latest addition has been the new bench seat that is built in to the side of the pergola, we now have a beautiful new outdoor area. The </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">plants are getting bigger and should look great in a couple of years, and the creeper is covering the fence quickly. Here are the before and after photos... They are in order of progress, so I won't label them, you'll get the idea! </span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;

Usually I spend a leisurely day putting up all the Chrissy decs but this year I am going very low key. We don't have as much room in the house as we usually do with my parents here, and well we are going away for a fair bit of December so won't be here to enjoy it. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Flynn couldn't bear not putting up the Christmas tree and being only 8 yrs old it wouldn't be Christmas without it, so that was the first thing we did on the weekend and then today I just hung some wreaths and that's it really. Oh and I love fairy lights so did a little strip in the outdoor area. I am in the middle of renovating our outdoor area, we have done a lot outside so that will be the next post. Here are some pics of my quick efforts for a little Christmas cheer this year!</span></div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbjsJBaRiLS-tppEPWGAvHehmRekxJMHNYxuc-taJFRfYtNO_X3KOnWURM8T2GHdvm36JLLqkDY36Si8KBzRl-qJ0JDUG_yXTLRskT6vRstCpKOhle3E6pldOiwO74enqB8QDqwhlMswo/s640/blogger-image--1726652261.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbjsJBaRiLS-tppEPWGAvHehmRekxJMHNYxuc-taJFRfYtNO_X3KOnWURM8T2GHdvm36JLLqkDY36Si8KBzRl-qJ0JDUG_yXTLRskT6vRstCpKOhle3E6pldOiwO74enqB8QDqwhlMswo/s640/blogger-image--1726652261.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Our Chrissy tree!

I have just finished the very last room left in the house to renovate, the laundry! (oh and extra loo). It actually has been my favourite room to do which seems weird because I totally hate washing, unfortunately it hasn't inspired me to do any yet, I have just been looking at my new laundry a lot cause its so pretty now! I love it to bits.<br />
<br />
We had made a snap decision to put a new floor in the family room and kitchen which flows into the laundry so we were pretty much forced to get the laundry done at the same time. I had visions of built in cabinetry and a porcelain sink but with one week to get it all sorted ready for installation that was not going to happen. I ended up buying a new laundry tub almost the same as what was there (I searched high and low for a ready made laundry tub a little different, there was NOTHING!) and did an expensive mixer instead to jazz it up! I made and installed a cupboard at the end of the toilet room which fit like a glove, so lucky! another unit to hold the dirty washing, a drying rack, hooks, a new roman blind and made a cute little curtain to hide some unsightly taps and things! Oh and I painted the toilet with chalkboard paint for a bit of fun!<br />
<br />
Before... terrible<br />

Instead of chucking a hissy fit and quitting blogging as I have been having issues with blogging on my computer, I calmed down and thought to try the blogger app. So I am doing this from the app today to see what happens? Hopefully it will still look the same and perform better for me! And I know a lot of you (my blogging friends) are probably wondering why I'm not already blogging direct from the iPad? Mmmmm me too, why didn't I do this ages ago! This is so easy so far...</div><div><br></div><div>I snapped these pics of our puppy the other day after my mini winter makeover of our family room. He thought he'd get in on the action after I was done, testing the new look out first! They just scrape through my criteria for being relevant to post on my page (has to be design related! Lol). He just fits in so well with my furniture and decor with his lovely grey shiny coat! that's my kind of dog! Haha. Also it's not hard to tell that he loves all the attention and is quite the poser. Maybe he should be a dog model?? </div><div><br></div><div>Have a lovely weekend everyone!</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjN4pdIcUyyoKtmF70EsRZPh54bsruPDEJLXfD4JyiPQVwEqCxeN4eUyhyphenhyphen4-yRHkucTtyYl95Je4B4S_56U-N0wJ6w2DbUjq6hcbcaviX1aA0FipsnLvKnK4YUlnVEy1LhM_1jDh4n8Yno/s640/blogger-image-492127505.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjN4pdIcUyyoKtmF70EsRZPh54bsruPDEJLXfD4JyiPQVwEqCxeN4eUyhyphenhyphen4-yRHkucTtyYl95Je4B4S_56U-N0wJ6w2DbUjq6hcbcaviX1aA0FipsnLvKnK4YUlnVEy1LhM_1jDh4n8Yno/s640/blogger-image-492127505.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtKKASUko-wVqvgz352RXg1Vpm5Nr46G8EdbcXDCEVMymw6Vu_xQCU-FUDc-y_CfmMFkgXDqGp5SdnnoLBM5kcrr88eUuIiCmStKvstYWPky_FIv1f-U0LJertwfesPUZsJSthh-Umq7A/s640/blogger-image--1570245240.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtKKASUko-wVqvgz352RXg1Vpm5Nr46G8EdbcXDCEVMymw6Vu_xQCU-FUDc-y_CfmMFkgXDqGp5SdnnoLBM5kcrr88eUuIiCmStKvstYWPky_FIv1f-U0LJertwfesPUZsJSthh-Umq7A/s640/blogger-image--1570245240.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><br></div></div></div></div></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZYVmizc2baZr2pp5dWZQyVNrkoUNl5XMPwCZP7rdgtnZdjjiHaR_SyAkE1uI2M0BKWs8ERC9OowXp4uU08rqULcmN6HeB7q2cS5dKzO8R-9MGQJrkhcWL6O4c29XDao6IiokjOnanZDw/s640/blogger-image--1768776793.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZYVmizc2baZr2pp5dWZQyVNrkoUNl5XMPwCZP7rdgtnZdjjiHaR_SyAkE1uI2M0BKWs8ERC9OowXp4uU08rqULcmN6HeB7q2cS5dKzO8R-9MGQJrkhcWL6O4c29XDao6IiokjOnanZDw/s640/blogger-image--1768776793.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><br></div>Carla @ Inside Home Livinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10509976744126426128noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-487664813866134751.post-75395898089179695492013-06-07T12:41:00.000+10:002013-06-07T12:41:33.147+10:00DIY: GLASS NOTICE BOARD<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After two incidents where my girls were up doing homework at midnight, (because they left it until the last minute) I then copped the bad attitude and crying from tiredness. NO more! I decided something had to be done in the form of a calendar for us all to see when homework was due so I could remind them to start ahead of time.</div>
<br />
It had to be on view and somewhere where we walk past everyday, no point hiding it in a cupboard or in a corner. This meant it had to be something a little stylish and funky that I could bear looking at everyday. I decided on a glass board. And the girls' thought that was cool because they'd get to write on it with the glass markers!<br />
<br />
I bought a big framed print from the Variety Store, I took out the picture and painted the thin mdf backing board with the same colour paint as my walls - Dulux 'grey pebble', however because the glass had a green tinge to it it looks ever so slightly different to the actual wall. You could do a 'colour' if you like but I didn't want it to be a feature.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
I drew up the lines for the days with a white glass marker onto the glass but put it back in the frame with it facing in so that when you write up your notes and change your dates over you can wipe away and the lines don't scrub off! I like to keep the calendar up to date so I just keep adding a new month at the top while the end of the other is still in use towards the bottom if you know what I mean??<br />
All in all its working well, but I don't think anything will ever stop my two girls from cutting it fine, and maybe I'm just not tough enough!! They'll learn one day...<br />

I am now a parent of teenagers! WOW! I remember finding out I was pregnant (with my identical twin girls) just like it was yesterday, time flies! My girls have grown up to be beautiful, kind, smart, mature, trusting and talented girls, getting taller and more beautiful everyday. This year being their 13th, they deserved a pretty good party, they wanted a theme and lots of girlfriends over. We decided on a pyjama party with grey and yellow decorations and thought they could all hang outside and talk and play games etc... but after finishing a whole interior renovation in the first year of us moving in we hadn't really done much outside, it was definitely not worthy to host a party out there, so in the month leading up to the girls' party, hubby and I painted the outside pergola, planted out the garden beds and laid mulch, put up a shade sail, cleaned, dug, mowed, trimmed... we worked ourselves silly. They did get some use out of all our hard work but it was about 38 degrees so ended up inside most of the time - arghhhhh!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The party was last Friday night and on the day luckily I had my Mum and Dad here to help me, I had worked all week and hadn't done a thing yet to set up, BUT I had the vision and knew exactly what I was doing (I had shared with you earlier on FB) so after attending my son's school mass that morning, we rushed to spotlight and to the supermarket to finish off gathering all the supplies. I had 4 hours to make a cake, decorate it and put up all the deco's before all the girl's arrived at 5. Lucky it was pretty simple and easy. It all worked out great, they had a really nice time, and were so happy with the way it looked (which is pretty important for a teenager lol)... I will really savour the moment they came home from school and had grins from ear to ear to see what I had done for them x</div>

I have been wanting to write and post pics of my new kitchen for a while, well since the <a href="http://www.insidehomeliving.blogspot.com.au/2012/11/the-soft-reveal.html" target="_blank">soft reveal</a> and give you a bit more detail on the decisions I made and take some nice shots of my kitchen to show you! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have used Polytec brand product for cupboards and benches. I did the cupboards in a sheen finish which is shiny and with normal abs edging, it is hard to tell they are not vinyl wrap! I used Polytec gloss benchtops too with a square edge. Both products are so superior and advanced in technology now you can't go wrong... I think the vinyl wrap is slightly over-rated actually, same said for stone.... If you design your kitchen well you can achieve the same look. Of course I did the whole design myself and I highly recommend getting a designer to assist you, I have designed quite a few kitchens now and hence have averted a lot of bland, beige ones popping up and made some very happy clients! Unfortunately people try to do it themselves and don't know what is available or just play it too safe and don't get the end result they had dreamed of. It's such a small price to pay for a big expensive project and one where you spend most of your time!</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
I was quite particular on the fixtures like the sink, taps, tiles etc... I spent a bit more on these to really give the kitchen some character and make it look more expensive than it really was. I put a lot of thought into the details of the kitchen to make it look unique and suit any decorating style. One key thing I did was make the edge of the benchtop flush with the front of the drawers to give a more designer look, also there are no handles on the drawers just a recess at the top to pull out all with soft closes. This is quite a modern look that I have teamed up with a more traditional feel in the bevelled tiles and exposed range and eclectic style open shelving. It all works together well though. I deliberately did this so that you could have a modern, retro, industrial or country style kitchen depending on your decorating style and how it may change! I like all styles!</div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
My favourite elements are my stone sink, soft close drawers, tray draw and tiles! It is all white which I love, it's hard to see in the photos but the benchtop has a fine marble effect. I kept it all white because the house is smallish and I wanted it to feel as big as possible. Plus it will go with my ever changing homewares!</div>
</div>

</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
It was a big job, and I'm thrilled with the result, a big thanks to my wonderful Dad (the builder) and Jamie from Instyle Kitchens Bendigo.</div>

All my children go back to school this week after the summer holidays. They did a lot of fun things and overall didn't get too bored! Each had trips to Canberra to see Mema and Papa, did the movies and shopping, play dates, sleepovers, and catch-ups with family and friends. Getting a puppy half way through the holidays also meant there was no time to be bored... it has been a full time job for them looking after him. Over the past week we have been getting ready for school again, the girls have been getting all their books and folders together, and filling new pencil cases is always fun! They are required to have art grade pencils for Visual Communication and Ceramics, you know the ones that come in a long tin. We decided it was going to be too difficult to carry them around school in a tin and I can just imagine them rolling out all over the ground if it got dropped, so I decided I would get a bit creative and make an old fashioned pencil roll each. Took all afternoon and night but that's what Mums do right? Anyway they love them and think they'll get some orders from fellow girlfriends!! (It would cost them way too much! haha)<br />

I hope everyone had a nice holiday over Christmas. We had an enjoyable and very quiet Christmas day with my parents (my family got sick with gastro right on Christmas which was not nice). After a quick recovery we were off to Torquay in Victoria for a short beach holiday, it was so relaxing, the kids just swam and swam and we drank and ate - making up for not being able to eat over Christmas! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
One day home then we were off again to the lovely Kangaroo Lake near Swan Hill for new years camping (it was only one night, but I'm sure I could have managed another night in a tent... lol), we had a wonderful time with great company. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I had plans of cooking and sewing but none of that happened, it has been so hot all you really want to do is lay around which is not hard when you have a new puppy to watch! Yes, to top it all off we got ourselves a new little puppy and it's like having a baby in the house again, we are all taking it in turns to baby sit... he is adorable so it is not hard!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I had a good two weeks off and am back to work tomorrow. That's Ok, because I love my job! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have taken lots of pictures on my i-phone over the holidays and thought I'd share with you where we went and what we got up to!</div>

To you and your family, I hope you have a wonderful day however you may be spending it. We will be in our own home this year with my family around us!<br />
As we are spending the festive season at home I have put out all my decorations this year to enjoy. I have quite a few photos of all that I have been setting up. Things are getting really busy in our house leading up to Christmas as in everyone's home's I would say! This weekend hubby and I are going to finish all the painting in the kitchen... not looking forward to that but it has to be done. Once I get that out of the way I will finish off some Christmas present shopping and then start doing some cooking for Christmas week so I can relax! All while I am still working my real job during the day...arghhhhh! I do have 17 full days off though which I am looking forward to!<br />

These would be only times I use the computer and office, since the the ipad and iphone are attached to me practically 24/7, however I do miss the good old times when you'd sit at the computer to get online! The kids use this space to do their homework more than anything now.<br />
Gee, looking at this photo (I took on an inspection of the house) it was such a long way off to how it is now! We are two weeks off our 1st year anniversary of living in this house, and I am happy with how it looks now. It has come such a long way from the beginning! I saw the potential in this place and it's paid off, I'll forgive you if you wonder how I ever thought I could transform it! haha<br />

I'll sneak in a pic in this post! Anyway as I was saying... while I wait patiently for the last few things to be done in the kitchen I have been doing a lot around the house such as moving furniture and finishing off my study (which you will see in my next post), painting what's left of the stained timber windows to white, framing pictures and hanging them and changing up the linen on my bed for the coming summer! When I saw these pillowcases from <a href="http://www.aurahome.com.au/"><span style="color: #0011ed;">AURA</span></a> I fell in love, I thought they would be the perfect pop of colour to go with my white linen and greys in my bedroom. I was fairly lucky to get them as they have now totally sold out of the whole range. They are reversible too with a nice soft grey on the back.</span><br />

The print above the bed means quite a lot to me and I actually based my colour scheme for the room around this. My Mum had it hanging in her room and so did my grandmother it is at least 30 years old!<br />
It has the most beautiful colours in it - all dusty blues, sage and mauve with the greys and bright white doves.<br />
<br />
I'm on the look out now for a nice throw to match in for the end of the bed, just for when we still have these cool nights like tonight!<br />
<br />
as I promised a quick shot of my tiles....<br />
