A Contrast Garden

When Brett and I were at Bunnings recently, I saw a sign that read “add these plants to your garden for contrast”.

Funny things is – all the plants that were contrast plants are what makes up the our whole garden LOL

We don’t really have a lot of green we have a lot of pinks & purples.

Oh well there is nothing normal about our house so I guess the garden shouldn’t be any different.

Now these are totally vintage lol they from Rock Eisteddfod's I danced in back in the day. They are designed by Reg Mombassa aka Mambo!

I love the craziness of them!

Lazy Susan Re-vamp

We purchased our square 8 seater table about 7 years ago.

Don't you love the pink chairs!

When you have short arms you really need a lazy susan to reach the middle of the table!

We quickly found out big lazy susans were expensive. So we made this one & painted it eggplant to match our old dining room feature wall.




Just made out of a pre-fab table top & a plastic tv rotating thingy (see below) - shes a bloody beauty!




This time I wanted to paint it black to match the new dining room theme - black, white, pink & New York glam!

During the spray paint session...




And done.... This room isn't 100% finished yet.

Love the Empire State Building centre piece.

1920s Dutchess Re-vamp

Ok the big Dutchess Reveal!

Well here is how she turned out!

This is the Dining Room (black, white, pink, New York Glam).








Love the legs!




Replaced the knobs!








Added black felt to the draw!







These cute little black stem glasses are my Nan's!




The silver tray & decanter with glasses are my Mums.










This Decanter is from my Nan & the silver us from my Mums tea set!




Brett made the shelves & painted them black!
