Moroccan splendor.

One place I want to visit on my wish is Morocco, the landscape, the delicious food, architecture and of course the beautiful colours and patterns which adorn the wonderful objects which come from this fascinating country.

The luxurious colours that enriched Moroccan interiors are so inspiring and are completely up my street! Even if you take just some simple elements from Morocco it can warm and brighten up any interiors without it looking too 'themed'.

Today I got a fantastic turquoise Moroccan leather pouffe! I have been looking out for one for a long time and having found an absolute bargain I couldn't refuse!
Similar can be found at Graham and Green.

I have now been inspired to do a bit of research and most definitely invest in more colourful accessorizes! Especially, cushions, lamps, tiles! In fact, I think Moroccan style is absolutely stunning, I better start saving for my plane ticket!

Moroccan style doesn't have to be bright fushias, oranges and blues. Then again why would you do it any way?
However, I still think it works using more earthy tones and the traditional perforated screen or lamp using dark wood and metal, though a bit of gold would highlight the glamour of Morocco.

National Baking week..

Seeing as it's national baking week, seems only fitting to provide different ideas for kitchens you would want to bake in!

Firstly examples of using the accessories to brighten up the space rather then soley in the decoration, an easier way to alter throughout seasons.






Nifty ideas for storage. Why not use the wall to hang utensils? By painting behind each utensil with their unique shapes in a darker shade to create a shadow for each one. Creating a fun game teaching the little ones to tidy! Notice the mistake though, could make you go a bit OCD!

Beautiful tall units housing everything, but no one will be looking at the kitchen clutter when it has been cleverly disguised with stunning turquoise glass doors. Not many are brave enough to want to highlight all the kitchen 'stuff' but I like the idea of not hiding all the equipment that we all have!









Hope these are some great ideas of incorporating colour into your kitchen without painting whole walls, unit doors or tiles!

Enjoy your baking! x
