My Work in Home Beautiful {May 2014}

I am so excited to see the gorgeous cottage i worked on last year in this months Home Beautiful!

A whole ten pages - and its come out looking divine!

The house had amazing feel to it & both the client & i were so excited to bring it to life.  

My client had some lovely things to say about working together which was so nice to read too :)

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.

Oceans Ode {The Lane}

I just love everything about this shoot by The Lane with Samara Weaving 

{wearing Pablo Sebastian & Jane Hill}

B + W

I am having a little love affair with black & white at the moment.

A complete change from the usual colourful me!

Perhaps im 'growing up'? I also see it reflected in the decor im attracted to these days. 

Will be interesting to see how our new place starts to come together this week.

(Yes! Get the keys on Thursday!!!!) 

We sold a lot of our stuff from our old place (lounge, dining table etc) so starting with a fairly blank slate.

.......i have been hoarding accordingly!

Cocorrina

Thanks to the latest Adore Magazine i discovered the blog of graphic designer Corina, Cocorrina. 

My favourite thing? These amazing free downloadable wallpapers!

Im currently rocking the first one as my desktop & it looks awesome :)

Get on over & check out her work.
