Decorating Workshop





In collaboration with Felicity Baj of Linen Press Interiors, The White Shed held it's first decorating workshop a few weeks ago!

The event was held in my home and attended by 14 fabulous girls who had free reign of my house and all of the items in The White Shed to style to there delight.

The day started with a glass of bubbles and morning tea in my dining room.

Each lady bought a picture of their favourite room from a magazine and we discussed an area they were looking for ideas on how to style.

We styled sideboards and ottomans using some basic principles of design.
They also put together colour schemes thinking outside of the square and using improvisation.

Felicity also bought a beautiful range of fabrics with her and gave ideas on how to be inventive and different with upholstery.

A BIG thank you to Felicity for making the trip over from Adelaide and for the huge effort she put in to the day. Also to the always amazing Kelly Dyett for taking these beautiful images.

For those of you who missed out this time, don't worry this was only the first of many so you will have the opportunity to attend our next workshop!

In the Shed Today



Working in 'the shed' today.

Looking forward to meeting a few of my online customers who have made the trek over to the
Yorke Peninsula to see me and my store!

It is a little chilly here but luckily my workman has bought in  the gas heater for me.

Special Time



Just took a few days 'off' to spend with my special little boys during school holidays.
Always hard when you work on your own in your own business but it just has to be done!

Action packed with Cars Movie, Birthday Party & Train Ride, Tram Ride, Visiting Family and Friends and a session of Theatre Bugs!

I did have to do a little work whilst away though. Ordered a huge amount of beautiful new stock and also my Christmas range, yes silver and white.........again!

Hope everybody else is enjoying the school holidays.

A Special Visit








Recently an old friend of mine made the trip from Adelaide with her beautiful mother and daughter to come and visit my shop.

It was so lovely to catch up. We worked out the last time we saw each other was at my baby shower nearly 6 years ago!!!

She is a very talented photographer and took these beautiful photos.

Thanks for visiting Rosie.
