✨ Adding Colour With Confidence

When I first moved out of home and started buying my own furniture, I played it very safe. Everything had to match — the cushions, the throws, the furniture — because I wasn’t quite sure what my style was yet. As I got older (and much more confident), I slowly moved away from the matchy‑matchy look. I still have my favourite colours — green and lavender forever — but I’ve learned that a room feels more alive when you let yourself experiment a little.

That’s why this quote hit me. It reminded me that the details *do* make the design, and sometimes those details need to be bold.

The first time I really tried it was with a bright orange vase in my living room. I placed it against green fabrics and warm timber, thinking it might look completely wrong… but it didn’t. It worked. That tiny pop of colour pulled the whole room together and made everything else feel more intentional.

It taught me that sometimes one brave little detail is all a space needs.

✔️ **Checklist: Adding Colour With Confidence**
- Start small — one vase, one cushion, one artwork
- Pick a colour that contrasts your main palette
- Keep the rest of the room calm so the pop can shine
- Repeat the colour subtly (a book spine, a candle, a flower)
- Trust your eye — if it lifts the room, it’s right

What’s the first “brave” detail you ever added to your home?

A little taste of how I live in my own home. Can you tell my favourite colour??? 😅

Growing up, I was all about pink 🩷 with a little ♥️ 🍒 thrown in for good measure.

Then 20 or so years ago, I was flicking tv channels and came across a reality show. I can't for the life of me remember what the name was, but I recall the wife was showing her house and it was swimming in 'tiffany blue'. I just remember thinking 'I LOVE IT!".

What's your favourite colour to decorate with?

Expectation: Calm, measured, professional DIY home improvement. 🛠️

Reality: Pure confusion, a lot of unnecessary noise, and a solid 20 minutes of "aggressively practicing the unboxing phase" because I couldn’t get the settings right. 🫠

Unboxed my new power drill and impactor today! Step one towarda being a true handywoman... I now officially feel like I can fix anything... as long as my neighbour is around to stage a tactical intervention and actually get the tool running. Shoutout to my next door neighbour Steve for saving my sanity!

Which tool are you reaching for first? (And does it come with a neighbour who knows how to use it?) 👇

Why I chose Snowy Mountains (Full strength) for my interiors

As I posted recently on my blog (see Bio for the link), when we return from living overseas last year, one of the very first things I decided to do was to repaint the interior of our home.

For most people, this would mean perhaps a quick trip to Bunnings for a brochure and one or two sample pots... If only it were that simple for me!

Something like a dozen pots later, and I had finally made my decision (while driving everyone else in the house mad). The final choice? Snowy Mountains full.

An old favourite, I have used this paint in many houses and seem to always find my way back to it.

Some of its best features include:
✅ Not too dark, too pink, too sandy or too cold.
✅ Creamy, light and with a subtle green undertone.
✅ Provides a gentle contrast against ceiling white and pairs well with Quarter or Half on doorframes.

Is this a colour you have used? What is your favourite white for the interior of your home?
