Market Day at Island Collections

 Talented local artist Jules joined us and set up her stall on the deck.

We had another successful Island Collections market day at Faith's home on the weekend. And like always we think we have plenty of time to set up but the time went sooo quickly and I only managed a few photos on my iphone while we were setting up, so sorry they are a bit blurry! I had grand visions of taking styled shots of people mingling and browsing at the market but we were tooo  busy. I also wanted to take a photo of the gorgeous drinks station that Faith had set up on the deck. Oh well ...next time!
A big thank you to Jules who joined us on the day and to Sharon who made the gorgeous owls perched on branches. Very popular!
Thank you everyone for joining us and making it such a wonderful day and if you would like to attend our next VIP market just drop us an email.
Hope you had a great weekend and enjoy the week ahead.

The Classic Blue and White Beach House

A great website we love to visit and get inspiration from is Houzz. There are literally hundreds and hundreds on beach house interiors and exteriors to get excited by and you can recreate your own ideasbook. The above photos are an example from their beach house interiors section and is by Marcelo Brito. We love his classic styling of white and blue with a touch of red and burnt orange to create a stunning beach house!
