Something Different....

These framed wood carvings are backed in linen with limewashed white frames I recently used them in a holiday home for a client and I have had lots of enquiry for them, so this post is to all my wonderful lily-g customers x


A personnal Touch

We have spent days unpacking lots of new stock at lily-g, I seem to get more obsessed with the French/coastal look and never seem to want to waver from the look that is so distinctly Lily-g. Our new monogrammed pillowcases are gorgeous and I love buying them for gifts too.

I just couldn't help posting this picture from all things Blue, I'm always drawn to beautiful classic interiors, loving the exposed beams and typical of me the all white colour scheme!

Simple but nice...

A simple room, lots of white always my favourite and I just love the wire candelabra, the loose covers and the mirror leaning against the wall!

Country style

I eagerly await every month my copy of "Country Style" I loved reading the article on Michelle Fallon and Jason Gibaud's home in Mullumbimby (near Byron Bay) I especially love there verandah with the old claw foot bath, the candelarbra and the ornate mirror and a touch of greenery for privacy, this clever duo are designers of a gorgeous childrens label called (Paper Wings) giving up there careers in Film to raise their daughters in the country, Julie quotes, "Home is where the heart is. That's daggy sounding, but...all the money in the world wouldn't change my philosophy." I kind of like that saying too!

Home Sweet Home




We are back home from our holidays refreshed and still very much in love with Byron Bay especially the hinterland. Staying at Byron Bay gave us the perfect chance to spend time exploring the region .The photo's I have posted were the short drive from Byron to Bangalow a trip we did often to escape the kids and to have a leisure coffee soaking up the atmosphere. I can't tell you how beautiful the region is, it's no wonder many famous Australians live here. we spotted this gorgeous house on top of the hill, painted in White this beauty stood out, that was it the moment of truth as Sarah Jessica from SATC said "I think I have died and gone to Real Estate Heaven" just to add to the ideal the swing (tyre on the rope type of swing) next to the tree house in the most amazing tree over looking the valley we just sat on the side of the road and took one look at each other, they were living our dream!!


Bangalow

My favourite country town is Bangalow the atmosphere is pure heaven and I just love spending time there, of course we especially love looking at the real estate windows (keeping the dream alive!!)
