MY FAVOURITE THINGS

Hat Bought at the Glastonbury Festival in the UK. I love hats! Vase By glass artist Emma Varga. Photo A picture of my mum and dad’s wedding. Glass ball Found in a thrift shop in Brighton, England. Dish Dinosaur Designs. Bell jar This is a vintage piece that now protects my great-grandfather’s camera. Bowl with shells The bowl was a gift from a friend and the shells in it were collected on my travels. Monkey lamp A Seletti piece. It’s from my shop, as are all the plants and pots here. Faux fur Kmart. Armchair One of my local vintage finds. Rug From West Elm.

MY FAVOURITE HAUNTS

Favourite local restaurants I like Italian Bar in Paddington and Plane Tree Cafe in Woollahra.

Go-to shopping spots I like to support local business, so I shop in Woollahra, Paddington and Surry Hills. There’s an amazing vintage shop across the street from me.

Places you find inspiration Art galleries and botanical gardens. Glasshouses are my favourite.
