Electric Firefly Design

Creating impact with light fixtures doesn't have to be expensive or difficult. These lamp covers by Firefly are fabulous if you have the urge to transform a room without spending big or having to wait for an electrician. I bought one at the Handmade Market in Canberra last year and within an hour had it up and working in our lounge room (see pic above). They look brilliant outside as well. 

The lamps are made from a durable polymer sheet that is 30-50% recycled and they are even developed and made in Australia. Ticking many boxes on my list! Take a look at their other styles here.

A bath with a view - a whole new level of 'aahhh'. Many a creative idea was born in the bath above. It is difficult not to be inspired by the setting sun, emerging stars and glimpses of the odd satellite; not to mention a rising moon. I would encourage anyone to think seriously about designing a view into a bathroom renovation. Absolutely priceless.

I often bemoan the lack of choice in Canberra when it comes to home wears so I was delighted when Fenton & Fenton opened an online store. Bright with a tribal edge and revamped bits to boot. My favourite things in a nutshell. It is probably good for my wallet they aren't around the corner!
