    Touch of Gold

    Cottonwood Style Archive

    I am loving the simple tones and gold touches in this beautifully formal living room. I am starting to think gold is the new black – every room needs a touch of it somewhere. I do love black touches but there is something very formal, elegant and classy about a little bit of gold in a room. It might be something simple like a gold mirror, a delicate gold and glass side table, or gold kitchen knobs, but it really gives a bit of bling.

    What do you think of small gold touches in a home or space? I know silver has always been very popular and almost never (dare I say never!) clashes with anything but I think gold is on the rise and adds a sort of richness and warmth to a space.

    I'm a interior and lifestyle photographer, interior designer, serial renovator, and mum of two, who just wants to live in a Nancy Meyers movie!

    I'm all about beautiful homes and interiors (photographing and designing), as well as everyday country living with style, cooking good food (mostly keto these days), entertaining, and enjoying family life in the beautiful Southern Highlands of NSW.

    💫 Beyond excited to share my latest collaboration... our living room featured on the cover, and inside, the Christmas edition of @potterybarnaus #TheCollectedHome ✨🌲!! Truly, its a huge honour, not just because of the company of so many talented designers and tastemakers who all grace the pages of this beautifully produced publication, but because I have loved everything @potterybarnaus since before they came to Australia. AND I get to work with the most incredibly talented and unbelievably hardworking team of women at PB, who make me feel like family.

I’ll talk more in upcoming posts about this space, as you may notice this was our formal dining room although we didn’t use it very often and we were desperate for a second living space, but it wasn’t an easy space to configure.

However, this room is without question my favourite room I’ve ever decorated and lived in. I feel like I’m in my very own @nmeyers movie when I’m sitting in this room, with it’s cottage charm, twinkling Christmas tree lights and all my favourite books and things around me ☺️✨. I’ve never felt more home, even though we’re in a rental. You can see more inside latest The Collected Home which is available in store @potterybarnaus and online (for my US friends). Xx

    Before it got insanely dry 😕 My shoot for the lovely @maehillfarm with the sweetest, most gentle cows I’ve come across. Hard to not feel deeply affected by this drought. It’s scary and uncertain And I just can’t stop thinking about all our farmers and their communities doing it inexplicably tough right now 💔 #buyfromthebush

    Another busy week that ended with all of us in the family having individual collective meltdowns last night (myself included 🤦🏼‍♀️). If anyone was standing outside our house, the shouting, crying and tantrums must have been appallingly audible 🥴 I don’t know if it’s that time of year or just a random crazy end of week exhaustion, but gee whizz, I’m ready for some down time!

Just going to sit right here ☝🏼and have my coffee in a moment and not rush off anywhere (despite having a million things to do) Hope you all have a lovely wknd with no shouting or crying! 😆 💫 #home

    Not quite like this here in the Highlands today 🙌🏼 Woke up to freezing temps, then an angry storm cell passed over, which gave us a drizzle of rain and strong winds, and now the sun is back out 🧐. Bizarre weather but will happily take more rain. The wind can bugger right off though.

An outtake from my recent @homebeautiful shoot which you can see more of in the current December issue, featuring the home of @louisekeats who’s view this belongs to! 🙌🏼👌🏼 #homebeautiful #homebeautifulmagazine
