Beach side dream

I can almost hear the waves lapping at the shore, almost feel the breeze pushing through the screened porch. It's as if the late afternoon sun warms me as I snuggle into the sofa and I know that I could not pass that console table without flipping through the old photos. This beautiful home is almost the perfect beach side dream. The only thing that could make it better is if I was actually there. By Birmingham, Alabama based interior designer Tammy Connor.

Castle and Cubby

We call it a cubby in Australia. A children's playhouse usually knocked together by your dad in the backyard, cobbled together with whatever is to hand or, if your lucky in kit form from a hardware store. But my cubbies were never as much fun as these beauties from Melbourne- based Castle and Cubby. How cute! A farmer's market stall or a beach hut. Made from recycled materials no two are ever the same. For sale in all sorts of configurations or you can rent them for a party. OK , OK I promise I'll go back to grown-up spaces in my next post. I just couldn't resist all the cuteness.

Super cute

How cute is this little girl's bedroom by Sydney-based Lily Rose Interiors? Simple, stylish and fun with only a smidgen of pink.
