Lovely link up

I like nothing better than a peek around other people's homes to see how they have decorated them. The perfect opportunity has come my way!

Kylie and Donna are doing a 'Show us a retro/vintage corner of your home' link up.

I'm in! Are you?

Go on, you know you want to...

Oh heavens I can't bear it!!!! What a glorious home you have my lovely and such incredible splashes of colour, beautiful touches. I haven't seen a cuckoo clock since I was a child in New Zealand, I adore the pink mirror and glorious Sophia!! xoxoxo

Curtise said...

All the pretty things!
Tania, your home clearly reflects your taste and your creative design talents perfectly. Love those little shelf units displaying all your gorgeous quirky and cute finds. And I spy a children's book (the name of the illustrator escapes me), the one with the yellow cover with the link jug sitting on it - I have a couple in the same series, the pictures are very sweet. And is that a loo roll I see at the back there? Now I do have a collection of those too...!
Happy to see a bit of Freckleface magic in the mix.
Oh and can't go wrong with big jugs, love!
Just saying... xxxxx

Kylie said...

Hi sweet Tania, I have had a smile on my face from start to finish while looking at your gorgeous, GORGEOUS home! Thanks for taking the plunge and joining in. I'm so glad you did. Your place is full of the best kind of vintage eye candy. Kitschy Heidi, I'm calling it. Sweet and lovely, just like you. I love your grey floorboards, little poodle flower filled vases, that gorgeous tapestry of the fairy tale Prince and Princess in the third pic, green cupboard, blue dresser, yellow stool, hot pink mirror, etc ETC!!!

You even have vintage in the bathroom....! I love your colourful home, especially the Scandi/Swiss ? folk art tapestry picture and all the knick knacks on the wooden shelf shelf.

Donna said...

Oh my goodness - another beautiful home! I am gaining so much design inspiration from taking a peek into others homes. Cuckoo clocks!! - Love. Such a clever shot taken in the reflection in the mirror! Also love the little aqua shelf with the jugs on it - so lovely. Thank you for sharing corners of your beautiful home in the link in. Happy to have found your blog. : )

Sophia Loren! Fresh from a bath of mint. I love your place, it's so cute without being twee and uncluttered without being minimalist (spits on floor) and very much you. So many fabulous little things! The blue chest of drawers is wonderful, love the matching shelves. The pink chair is fabulous too! xxx
