Jacinta Preston

These are real homes for real people. Stylish and so practical. The kids run through, the dog jumps on the couch, your friends feel so at home they sometimes stay for lunch and dinner. Jacinta Preston takes the great Aussie dream of a home of your own and adds in the lifestyle. It's fun and easy maintenance, inside and out, vintage and new, off to the beach and curled up watching TV. Real. And really lovely! If you have the latest Real Living magazine (a must have every month) you'll see Jacinta's bedroom on the cover. Butterfly love!

wow - love the mix of old and new, particularly the old chest of drawers as a sideboard, the old clocks collection and the blue chinoisserie wardrobe!

Love when you post things from Australia! Being an Australian living in the Middle East, it's nice to get a touch of home!

@ Lisa - The Empire State print was a blown up copy of the ticket you receive when you go up to the viewin platform.

Love this post! Anyone know where to find those black boards listing sydney suburbs? I've seen them around and LOVE them but no idea where to get one! Would really appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction - thanks! helgz @ hotmail . com

Helen - google "destination roll" or "bus roll". You can often find some on eBay or replicas on Etsy.
