So sorry i have been slack with my postings......after a wonderful holiday i have had lots of time to think of ideas for my store , and we have decided on going for a slightly new look...we are excited soon to be soon showing you. It wont be too drastic just a few tweaks here and there.....but all still in the making. I can reveal we are making a lot of the stock ourselves which is making our job a lot harder, but will give the store a unique and individual look. So we are very excited and cant wait for the big launch...... The store will be closed for a few days so i will be informing you of the dates; the shop will be repainted with new colours and signage to go with our new look; Don't worry it is still Vintage through and through......more so than ever. Enjoy your Valentines Day. I hope everyone comes home to some sort of surprise, even if its just a rose from the garden.xxxxx

Part 2........
Here are some more photos of part 2 of the reveal of our home renovation......
The gorgeous Killekrankie Farm Christmas tree ......
From our upstairs landing looking into the hall....
A corner in our bedroom....
One of my favourite rooms and the bath is one of my favourite spots with a glass of bubbles in hand.
The garden is growing so quickly; this has all been re-landscaped and completely changed to accommodate for the newly installed bi-fold doors opening onto our paved patio.
The front garden is coming along. We still have to mirror the sandstone steps on the other side of the porch......always something to do. I hope to have enjoyed the second part of the reveal; a very busy year with this restoration .....but we are very happy in our new home.

Finally............
As i have been promising for a very long time.......a reveal of our home renovation. I finally feel like i can show some sneak photos of the internal of our newly renovated Georgian home.
The entrance hall with sisal carpet and french wall paper......the light fitting was existing; we had it sandblasted from brass to matt and then painted them with matt black paint.
A view looking from the top of the stairs to the front door.
From the hall looking into the library.
Somewhere to just get away and read. Here you can see the original floor boards which we managed to save.....we think they may be iron bark. So no sanding with an industrial sander but a gentle hand sand and then finished off with a few coats of wax. The wall colour was mixed by myself to match the linen roman blinds.
The lounge has a cedar miners couch; these walls were also mixed to match our slip cover couches;
A colonial portrait
Beautiful cedar mantles,,,,all original to the house.
Well i hope you have enjoyed part 1 to the reveal. I will be showing more over the next couple of days, so stay tuned.....take care everyone.xxx
