  • Breezeway vignette || there’s no rhyme or reason when it comes to choosing art. I also don’t think about it. It speaks to me or it doesn’t and that’s all. @michaelandcarlene @carleneduffy
  • We spent the last few days making improvements to our house for a video series deadline. It nearly killed us but it feels good to make changes that have been nagging at us for months and years. Too knackered to photograph them but we’ll get there || @michaelandcarlene @carleneduffy 📷 @mindicooke for @pghbricks
  • Throwing it back to our main bathroom. I wanted bathrooms that were timeless but loaded with warmth and interest. I think we did it @michaelandcarlene @carleneduffy . . . #cedarandsuede #cedarandsuedehome #cedarandsuedestyling #cedarandsuededesign #michaelandcarlene #homedesign #bathroomdesign #homeinspo
  • This is how you do pattern clashing ❤️ Big pattern (rug), small pattern (wallpaper) and as for stripes (armchair), they’ll will work in with any ole pattern 📷 @trevortondro | Styled by @amykchin via @archdigest #nurseryinspo
  • On the blog..... I’m in the giving spirit so ask me your bathroom and kitchen renovation questions in the BLOG comments section and I’ll share the love.

  • Paddy’s bedroom. This pic was taken about 18 months ago and his desk still looks exactly the same. Michael is trying to convince him to clear it all away but it’s futile. Paddy has his ways. This is the kid who won’t pull apart his LEGO once it’s built. It will be a big day when he one day has to clear his desk to actually study on @michaelandcarlene @carleneduffy || Wall colour: @resene Madison. . #cedarandsuede #cedarandsuedehome #cedarandsuededesign #cedarandsuedestyling #boysbedroom #bedroomdesign #bluewalls #vjwalls #homedesign #homesting #wallcolour #boysroom
  • I love a fluid living room with multiple sitting zones ❤️ The opportunities here feel endless 📷 @francoishalard via @archdigest
  • How energising are the unlikely colour combinations happening here in the @larlatan hotel?! ❤️ The icey blue walls paired with the red velvet chairs and the plum, green and pink in the patterned floor just makes me happy 🌈 Via @archdigest
  • We’re excited to say that we have SOLD our lil ray of Sunshine 🐝 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Bumblebee officially has new owners so will NOT be up for auction on Tuesday. Sorry for those who missed out. On the upside, there will be more vans. They are very labour intensive so the next one is at least 6 months away but it will be worth waiting for 💫 @michaelandcarlene @thisoldvan @carleneduffy #SOLD
