Kitchen Magic


If I ever have a chance to set up a bedsit or B and B, this is exactly how I would do it. Have you ever seen anything so compact yet so beautiful? I love absolutely everything about it.
But for a family kitchen these are my dream pictures!


 Grey and white marble is in every one of them.

 Criss,cross glass doors
 Rich and warm wood floors
 Chandeliers
 White cabinets and detailed ceiling coving
A butlers pantry
 Elegant tapware
That is what my dreams are made of.

J 'Adore Paris


            When you open your heart to Paris 
  many things do occur
 A fascination begins with their unique buildings, streets, rooftops........
 To the magic they create they with flowers. 
 To the comfort and everlasting style of their furniture

                                                       Unmistakable inspiration in fashion
 A world of luxurious hotels


                                                          A city so bright of twinkling lights

To the treasures that lay hidden waiting for you to find
 To the famous delights.
Where would we be without Paris?

French Style Glamour in Claremont and a Hampton's Link.

 My daughter is very ill at the moment so posting is difficult to find time for so when I saw this house in a real estate magazine I thought it was perfect for some French inspiration.
 I would love doors like these especially if the glass could open to allow fresh summer breezes through the house without compromising on safety. I would also really, really like those light fittings!!
 And the coffee table
 Wish my study was this tidy
 Beautiful surfaces in the kitchen
 I really think that choices of light fittings almost stamp the French style into a home
But lets not forget candelabras
 Hows this ensuite. Oh so glamourous!

 No wasted roof space here. Using attic roof space is such a clever way to make an extra bedroom, games area or home office with space to spread out.
 Gorgeous wallpaper
 Some unusual finishes in the bathroom.
 If you want to know more visit Acton Real Estate here.
If you feel like a little fix of Hampton's Style such as this house visit here at Cococozy. Hope you're having a glorious week.

Vanity Style

When styling in the bathroom for the

"Glamourous" look

I love to see elegant perfume bottles displayed beautifully, especially on silver trays.

Perhaps some of us have so many to display that shelves are needed


But for most of us an elegant tray seems to be the order of the day


Sometimes adding quirky ideas keeps the bathroom fun and fresh




Apothacary jars of various heights provide perfect opportunities for all those beautifully packaged soaps or layers of salts

Love the use of the smaller one for a flower largely submerged in water

For a place where we spend time making ourselves "beautiful"

It just makes sense that we start with a glamourous and inviting display in our bathroom

which can turn routine into an enjoyable event!

Milton Park- Fabulous French Style Country House Hotel and Spa

Nestled in the Southern Highlands of NSW, lies a magnificent, french styled Country House Hotel and Spa called "Milton Park".

A beautiful place to get lost in its magic, where you can be forgiven for thinking you are in France with so many delights to enjoy.

Rooms are charmingly styled with French style furniture, wall pictures and lighting to create a romantic and peaceful ambience.




A variety of wood and finishes complement each other creating a sense of depth and intrigue.


Simple yet luxurious linen on the bed creates a calm and tranquil atmosphere



While rustic tiles in the bathroom contrast with the texture of soft, fluffy towels and robes







Flowers artfully decorate the dining room


Original antiques mix with reproduction


To create a wonderful sense of comfort and luxury.


Windows are simply adorned to allow the gardens to speak


Elegant table settings entice






With a menu of french dishes too delicious to resist.

A most beautiful and captivating experience that is so hard to say goodbye when it is time to leave.

(My next post will take us on a journey through the amazing gardens)
