Decor Monday – Desktop Details
One of the things I’ve been putting off, but really feel I need to focus on again, is sorting out my desk. It’s still filled with beauty products from last years’ features and old press releases. I love this desk by blogger Peep My Style… Here are some items I have my eye on… I friggin love this print by Don Oehl via 20×200. I think it would make an absolutely great feature on my wall! This little bunny from Loads of Living is super cute! I love the colour. I actually popped in to see if they had it…
View PostDecor Monday – Vintage Hat Boxes
I’m obsessed with vintage hat boxes. They are so girly so very cute, why don’t women use these anymore? They make great decor pieces for closets, bedrooms, bathrooms and even living spaces.

They also give the room great ambiance and texture. After looking for them online, I discovered that these gorgeous lamps came from Haldane Martin in Cape Town. The Fiela Feather Arc Light was inspired by the lightness of dandelions and finished with soft white ostrich feathers from Oudshoorn. How beautiful! The price of the arc lamp was a little scary! R14 473! Eeek! But if you’ve got the money to spend…
