BONEHEADS, ANTIQUE SILVER & a SPLASH of COLOUR

WHO SAYS, "PINK STINKS!"
Can you resist a splash of pink?
 I know I can't!
 Today I thought I'd merchandise our black throws and ruffled black cushions together to sit perfectly alongside a palette of fluoro and hot pink!
With left over fluoro rope from my windows,silver antique vases,tea glasses in pink and silver and a clashing bonehead vase....it worked.
Enjoy!   


This opulent silver plated mirror from India is one of my favourite pieces at Moss Grotto.I never purchase much at trade shows for myself(apart from handbags - my biggest obsession)but I've promised myself to order one of these for our new home the minute our building is complete - I can already see it above the vanity in our bathroom.

THE VERDICT IS IN: EXTRA LONG PONCHOS coming to Moss Grotto!

Think "Clint", "Spaghetti Western Cowboy", "Fistful of dollars", "The good,the bad & the ugly"..............think pure "STYLE"

Although not exactly the same as what Clint wore,these original South American ponchos will provide an element of fun for those cooler days.
Belt it in, wear it loose!
 A poncho provides warmth while remaining breathable,comfortable and most importantly - they look COOL!
Also keep an eye out for our kids poncho's made in bright multi coloured crochet knits.


Available soon at Moss Grotto.In natural brown tones and blues.

   The verdict is in: EXTRA LONG PONCHOS!

A WEAKNESS for WHITE!!

A talented friend of mine, CATHY PENTON from
 Cathy Penton Atelier posted a few wonderful interior shots of white images on her business facebook page today.
Interior shots I wanted to share.
I have to agree, there's something about having a "weakness for white!"
When I met my husband John, my close female cousins all asked if I picked the house before the man. Our home is "ALL WHITE".
 "Of course not" I said.
There's something completely calming about the palette WHITE - Easy to add colour to or simply white on white.
White doesn't limit you. It leaves you with a blank canvas.
A canvas that has no limits.A canvas to really PLAY with!
I hope you enjoy the following images as much as I did.
