My Great.ly Store Update

I wanted to tell you about a few fabulous new additions to my Great.ly store. If you don't know about Great.ly you can read this blog post which explains it all. Just quickly... I have an online Great.ly store which is filled with products that I love from throughout the Great.ly website. By visiting my blog I'm hoping that means you have a similar style or design aesthetic to me, so you will love my choices, and all items can be shipped internationally - yay!

I have added some gorgeous artwork - beautiful photography, paintings, and abstracts...

There are some fun new items for your home. I can just see my bottle of bubbles in that pink champagne bucket this summer...

Some of my products can be found in more than one category. I love these bright, graphic cushions which are in my home and kids section...

And these cute canvas bags would be great for the kids' lunch, or yours for that matter, or for storage. They can be found in my kids and my accessorise section...

Pop over and check out the whole store, where you can also find a section for your office, for stationery, and books. I've also added the Great.ly logo on my right hand panel, click on it and link straight to the store anytime you feel like some retail therapy. I will continue to update it, so check in regularly for new additions.

Navy & White

Navy blue and white is such a classic and beautiful colour combination. It's so crisp and fresh - I love to balance it with warm tones of pink, coral, wood or brass.

I love a deep blue painted wall, but if you'd rather introduce it into your home in smaller doses, here are some fantastic ways to do that...

rocking chair | wall tiles | key tassel | papier mache bowl | watercolour painting
shibori baskets | y side table | zebra fouta towel

Favourite Finds

I think you're going to love my most recent "favourite finds"... These Thomo & Coach Timber Boxes are super cool. The boxes are hand crafted and designed by Melbourne based company, Thomo & Coach - Anoushka Thompson and Steve Gourlay - and custom painted by Sydney graffiti artist, Roach.

Lea Korzeczek and Matthias Hiller are the founders and creative directors of Danish company STUDIO OINK. One of their specialities is creating customised interior design concepts, and their 'marvelous all-in-one bunk bed' is pretty spectacular. A bunk bed, playground, dressing room and storage space, it features two secret staircases and a lockable trapdoor. The built-in wardrobe is accessible both ways and there is even a pull-out guest bed for sleepovers. Wouldn't this be every kids' dream?! Not to mention an excellent use of space.

Last but not least, have you been to visit my GREAT.LY boutique yet? It's filled with products that I've hand picked from the amazing GREAT.LY makers. I will be regularly adding new pieces, so make sure you keep stopping by. Some of my latest additions...

My GREAT.LY Boutique

Have you heard about GREAT.LY yet? It's such a brilliant concept and website, and I'm really excited to now be a part of it. There are three important players... the makers (all those clever people that create amazing products), the tastemakers (those who spend their days searching and writing about beautiful things, and who have built up an online presence - that's me!), and the shoppers (who want to buy all the awesome products - that's you!).

I am a tastemaker, which means that I have created a GREAT.LY boutique and filled it with my favourite products from the GREAT.LY makers. It's a win-win situation... the tastemakers promote and market their boutique, leaving the makers free to do what they do best - create. The tastemakers take a small cut on any products sold through their boutique. And the shoppers get one clean, non-cluttered market place with amazing products from around the world curated by the tastemakers who they already know and follow.

I have created seven different categories in my shop. For the Little Ones...

For your Home...

Stationery...

Beautiful Art...

Also, Great Reading, For your Office, and Accessorise. Pop over to check out all of my GREAT.LY boutique, and make sure you bookmark it as I will be adding and updating it all the time. Go on, become part of the GREAT.LY family.
