Wishing you all a Blessed Christmas! These lyrics Wishing you all a Blessed Christmas! These lyrics are from one of my favourite Afrikaans Christmas songs called Somerkersfees. It talks about God's love in sending His Son as the best gift we will ever receive. And it prays for a bright Summer Christmas in South Africa!

I love this side table that I've painted in the colour 'Monsoon Lagoon' by @plasconsa.

I also did a faux bone-inlay stencil on another side table, and it turned out beautifully! @elanie.eckard, thanks again for the stencils.

We updated our lighting! We installed some much-needed downlighters, got a new gorgeous industrial style desk lamp from @lightingwarehouse (called the Percy Desk Lamp) and updated our old wall sconce to be used on the built-in-shelving. 

Baby steps, but we are getting there!

What do you do when you spot a cute decor item in What do you do when you spot a cute decor item in your favourite homeware store's budget isle, but the colours don't match your decor? You buy it and paint it, of course.😊

I came across this mini pot plant holder @mrp_home the other day and just loved the texture on it. I took it home and painted it with a coral and cold ombre effect. Head to the blog for all the details! 

The faux string of pearls is also from @mrp_home.

It has been almost three years since we painted our kitchen cabinets and wall tiles, and they are still holding up so well! So hit me with you kitchen cabinet paint questions in the comments below. 👇🏻

We painted the handles with @rustoleumsouthafrica's ever-popular Oil-Rubbed Bronze.

Cabinets were painted with the colours Nomadic Dream and Fynbos Leaf and wall tiles with Frozen Limeade. All from @plasconsa.
