Come along this Saturday to the Powerhouse Market and check out our new wares; I hope it doesn’t rain… it feel as though we haven’t been at the market for ages…. mainly due to the rain. Lots of wonderful new bits and pieces; I’ll preview them on Friday. Plus for added excitement  I’m planing a […]

We had a great time celebrating my Mum’s 60th Birthday on Friday night; we had beautiful flowers from my favourite florist Hacienda on Racecourse Road, a beautiful rich and airy chocolate cake from Chocolate and Flour at Morningside and I thought it only fitting to debut the beautiful beeswax birthday candles from Herriott Grace that I had […]

My Mum is turning 60 today. Happy Birthday Mum! It’s funny to think of yourself as your actual age… I’m sure Mum doesn’t feel anywhere near 60, probably still in her 20’s, sun baking on her front steps in bikini’s listening to Elvis on the wireless, with the fragrance of coconut tanning lotion in the […]

The carcass of the banquette seating, soon to be clad in tiles. Looking through into the kitchen. Upholstery palette decisions. A few progress shots; that is my wonderful Father! This is Trevor our super carpenter! This room makes me so happy, a kind of happiness that only calm and peace can bring. I don’t even […]

Lately, in the sheer pursuit to get into ‘top wedding shape’ (I’m saying this with sarcasism mind you)  I have found myself hitting the pavement with the running shoes and cooking a lot of Dr Alejandro Junger’s recipes, thanks Gwyneth. What my favourite part of all this is though (yes, there actually is a favourite part!) […]

Tomorrow regrettably looks like it will be a wash out for us at the market – no market for Travelling Wares tomorrow. I know there are people who were looking forward to picking some pieces tomorrow, please feel free to email me and we can arrange a drop off or a pick up. Enjoy the weekend! […]

 Thought we may need a little colour lift this morning here on the blog; what gloomy mornings we have been having in Brisbane this week; though honestly there is never an excuse needed to share gorgeous interiors. The above images are from Schuyler Samperton; a very talented woman indeed. I am in love with the […]

      Here is a dose of ‘Tuesday Go Get ‘Em’, otherwise known as inspiration. The talented Lucy of The Design Files has shared a short film called The Design Files Open House; where a residential space was converted into a weekend pop up shop, incorporating 72 local artists to fit the entire house out with everything […]

Happy Monday! It’s market week, so I’ll be busy getting things ready for Saturday. Lots of new things to share with you! Talk soon! K x

Just before Christmas I had the absolute privilege of working with Vogue Living (which happens to also be my favourite magazine in the whole world) on some stunning kitchens and bathrooms for this months current edition. Go treat yourself and pick up a copy, my quick snaps of the pages above don’t do the interiors or photographer […]

©Kara Rosenlund I know, a bit random no? As you all know I am shooting the online shop and props hire this week; I asked my girlfriend Sally O (yes, if you want to hang with me your last name has to be O) to pop by and give me a hand building the champagne […]

I recently had the pleasure hiring some pretty vintage wares to a Travelling Wares customer of mine who was celebrating her baby shower. It is such a privilege being asked to contribute to these memory making moments. The gorgeous garden party was held a couple of Saturdays ago and as you can see Miss C […]
