Tutti Frutti

Do you remember when owls were everywhere you turned? And deer are still very popular, thanks to the Scandi look so many love. Recently I've noticed an abundance of watermelon accessories, and I must say, they are super cute.

My Contact Voyaging Co. Paddle

You may remember a post I did earlier this year on the amazingly cool painted paddles from Contact Voyaging Co. Canadian artist, Alex Jowett, paints a range of simple but stunning patterns onto the paddles, which can be used in the traditional 'paddle' sense, or as a piece of art.

I couldn't be more excited to now have my very own Contact Voyaging Co. paddle hanging on our living room wall. It'll come as no surprise to most of you that I chose the Pink Cross, which I think looks pretty darn good with my Armadillo&Co Caravan rug.

You can buy your own paddle on Alex's Etsy site, as well as his awesome lights, cushions, and artwork.

Etsy Love

You all know by now how much I love homes that are filled with personality. I like to see unique pieces, quirky knick knacks, vintage and upcycled treasures. That's why I'm a massive Etsy fan. If you're prepared to invest a little time to explore you can find all of these things. 'Favourite' those shops that really excite you, and check back to see all their new products. 

You can buy a vintage rug from Turkey, an antique ornament from England, a crocheted ottoman from Spain, a beautiful set of handmade feathered arrows from America... the choices are endless. Here are a few of my current 'favourites...
