My new home in Adore Magazine

Oh dear….has it really been almost 3 months since i last posted?!?!
How did that happen?…..
Well, my business is super busy with lots of great projects & I've had to focus on that for the time being. 
But i haven't forgotten about the blog or you my bloggy friends!
What better way to come back to the blog than to share the story Adore Magazine has done on my new place!
And don't you love that my dog Violet managed to score a double page spread in her favourite spot (yes…on the couch!)

Balcony Inspo.

Ive decided to leave doing anything with our new balcony till we get back from our trip. 
Im sure the plants wouldn't appreciate being abandoned for 3 months!
I love the look of simple big (white?) planters with sculptural looking plants 
(frangipanis, palms, fiddle leaf figs etc)
And also want to do some big pots of herbs.

Guest Room

At the moment our spare room consists of the following;
Art that hadn't been hung yet
A bed with no bedhead
All our bits & pieces we have been getting out to pack for our trip.
In short it looks like a dump!

When we return I'm going to get to work making it a great guest room!

ADORE {The Book!}

There are so many exciting things happening at the moment!
One of which is the long anticipated launch of the ADORE book.
I am so thrilled for Loni who hosted a pozzible campaign to get the book funded.
My copy arrives yesterday & its full of amazing homes, spaces & general gorgeousness….
AND my old apartment {and ME!} feature in the book!
My house….and me…in a BOOK! Crazy.
{my nanna is going to order about 50 copies! Which you too can do here from the Adore Shop}

Heres a little taste!

Im Alive!

Apologies for my absence over the past few weeks. Moving house is exhausting!!! 
Add to that running a business & planning for a 10 week European trip that starts in less than 4 weeks & wellll…..
it doesn't leave much inspiration or time for blogging!

If you follow me on instagram (sally_rhys_jones) you will have seen some snaps of our new place.
The water is still incredibly warm (around 22 degrees!) so I've been getting down for a swim most days.
If not here are a few snaps of our last two weeks.

Getting the keys made more exciting with them attached to french bubbly!

The day before the removalists came….the essentials...

The 'i don't know where to put this yet' room.
Mind you, i still cant get my head around actually having more than one room!

After a marathon 14hr moving day the living room taking shape!

Have started to hang a few things up.

The corner of the living room…
Later that night the dimmer switch on the Kartell lamp melted & almost caught fire. Fail!

Dopeed into my 'Hydrangea lady' on the way back from Ikea!

Had a custom made mirrored cabinet installed on our bathroom wall.
Was exciting to finally design something for myself!

And most importantly have been getting to the beach every day!
I timed the ride on our wedding bike - 6 minutes front door to beach :)


But for now the apartment decorating has been largely abandoned to plan our trip!
This time in 4 weeks we will be in Italy…OMG.

Bedside Lamps...

Yet another decision to make for our new home.....bedside lamps!
Its an important one for me - im a bit of a lamp lover!
You might remember this is our old bedroom {from the adore shoot}. 
We had a pair of big white lamps with gold lined shades either side of the bed.  
I love using larger scale lamps next to a bed as i feel small lamps just look...piddly! 
Unfortunately one of these lamps got broken when we were moving, so we need a new 'pair'...


My decision is, do i use a similar kind of thing - large with nice fabric shades....
Or to change it up with something more minimal & industrial like these......









Your thoughts?
