Milo & Mitzy Chunky Knit NZ Wool Throws
With winter finally here in the southern hemisphere, there needs to be a few rituals in place that’s good for the soul to help us get through these wet and cold months. For me, other than copious bowls of hot yummy soup and thick bed socks to wear around the home, I always have a throw to snuggle under on the sofa. Even with the luxury of central heating, nothing beats that cosy feeling.
Pick Up Sticks Armchair by Resident
I always love that lone armchair in the home. Quite often it sits in the bedroom, beckoning for an item of clothing to be thrown over at the end of the day or sitting elegantly beside a sideboard in the living room. It’s a statement piece, a chair that doesn’t get that every day use, but is always there as a back up to be pulled out for that extra person.
My Space | Corinne Kowal of Emerald Green Interiors
After a refreshing break from my everyday life and responsibilities, I can truly appreciate today’s My Space feature. Corinne Kowal is a colour consultant and authors the blog, Emerald Green Interiors. She has long tooted the benefit of colour in the home, long before the re-emergence of coloured walls and when it was all about “white”. I first admired her elegant decorating style after seeing a feature on her old apartment in Brussels by Holly Marder for Houzz. When she recently packed up her life and relocated to Madrid, I was so excited to see how she would decorate her new environment so after some months of settling in, I asked her if she would be my guest and share a special place in her new home with us. Well, it seems that she went beyond that actually created the space that she longed for! While I never intend to create too much work for my guests, I actually feel good about this one because everyone needs their own little sanctuary and I don’t know about you, but I’d love to curl up in this one right now.
