Hotel Del Coronado

This could be yours for a mere $400USD per night

As many of you may know, I have just returned from a two and a half week holiday to the West Coast of America with my wonderful family. We began our holiday flying into LA and hired a car to drive to San Diego. We spent three amazing days on the Island of Coronado during the Spring break week. I could stay here for months!!

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like a Kitchen!

After weeks with no kitchen, my new kitchen finally started being installed yesterday! All of the cabinets are in but I'm waiting on the stone benchtop to be installed tomorrow, then handles etc later in the week! As it is not photo worthy yet, I'm posting some of the kitchens that inspired me along the way! Enjoy!

Absolutely love this image from "this photographers life"! I haven't been quite brave enough to paint all of my walls black yet but I love, love, love this!

I found this image on the "kelly green" blog - very inspiring!

A "Domino" magazine classic!

Can't find the source of this one (am happy to be reminded)! Simply gorgous!

From "House Beautiful" magazine! Can't beat simple white dinner set with the black background to set it off! Can't wait to have some pics of my own! Tracey xx

Bathroom Inspiration!

Here are some pics of my absolute favourite bathroom in a very long time! I found them on the ever inspiring...."Desire to Inspire" blog!

The one thing that really stood out to me are the quatrefoil cutouts above the windows after reading an incredibly interesting post about them on the "Limestone & Boxwoods" blog! The tiles are beautiful too!

How stunning is this basin...just look at the detail in the vanity legs!

So simple and so gorgeous! This is a very similar colouring to what I have chosen for my new kitchen which seems to be taking forever to go in. I am in my second week of school holidays with 3 hungry boys and zero kitchen! Our local McDonalds will know us by name soon. Tracey xx

California Dreaming!

While Hayley is off traveling again, all I can do is dream about it! I just love this California beach home by LA designers Hallberg and Wisely!

Such a relaxed, laid back look so suitable for a beach house. I just love the black book shelves!

Not a bad view either! Tracey xx

Simply Put...

I just love the look of adding simple greenery to a room in an unexpected way! These beautiful old jars filled with cut bamboo look so simple but so gorgeous (especially on the yellow and green drawers)! Hope you are all enjoying your Easter break so far! Tracey xx
