Receiving photo updates from clients as their renovations start to take shape, is like Christmas morning 🎄
What were once white walls, are now quickly transforming this Wellington villa into something just a wee bit special ❤️

A wee vignette to wrap up the working week ❤️

“A vignette refers to a small grouping of decorative objects, which can make a beautiful personal statement in a room. The purpose of a vignette is two-fold: to create an eye-catching pop of interest, and to showcase your favourite treasures.

Creating vignettes around the house is such a therapeutic way to spend some spare time. Not only does it keep everyone guessing where you’ve moved their stuff, but inadvertently the space gets cleaned (dusting’s not my favourite thing to do) as well as creating a special moment until it’s time to create a new one. It’s also a great way to test how observant your husband and kids are 👌

Another client ready to embrace colour 🙌
This project, ‘Project Outside In’ is focused on bringing this client’s love of nature and the outdoors into the home, so that the existing beige walls take a backseat in their current scheme 🌲🌈 A transformation is about to take place 👌

and just like that I’m 40❤️ Feeling okay about it too👌

I’ve never been very good at embracing getting older, but as most of us know, time waits for no one!

It’s always important to stop and reflect, and I know I’ve posted about this before, but when I was 35 I couldn’t shake this crazy idea of leaving a career and job I loved to try my luck at becoming an Interior Designer.

I didn’t want to look back at 40 and think “What if?”

As I sit here on a Tuesday afternoon, working away on a variety of client projects, I’m so proud of myself.

There have been so many ups and downs, so many challenges to work through, but equally so many successes.
Even if it hadn’t worked out, yes I would have been disappointed, but I would have known.

Memento mori is something I reflect on each and everyday. It translates to “Remember you must die.”
Morbid - Yes!
Motivating - Hell Yes!
It’s the only thing we are guaranteed in this short life of ours. Get out there and live your best life (whatever that may be) even if it means stepping out of your comfort zone.

I promise you won’t regret it.

Speak your dreams into existence, what’s the worst that could happen.

Whilst working on client projects over the summer, it had become apparent that the Colourbolt working environment needed a rejig.

I love being based from our home in Mapua, just not at our dining room table!) Knowing where you are most productive, and which time of the day you need to be doing your most focused work, is so important to your wellbeing and productivity.

At this stage of our renovation journey, we have a small house (large section with loads of potential, but small living spaces,) so when thinking about a new work space, creativity had to come into play.

Result: A third of our large master bedroom is now an office!
The light is beautiful in the morning, afternoon and evening, which is essential to my mood towards work. New desk, new chair, lighting, plants, candles and storage. Based away from the kids and not within sight of any housework that may need doing 🙌

Be creative. We don’t all have the luxury of a purpose built workspace/office at home or at your place of work.
Create something that works for you and give it depth by drawing on all 5 senses. It’ll make a huge difference to your attitude towards work and your personal wellbeing.

Home is where the heart is ❤️ It’s also where we spend a huge chunk of our lives. Let’s start transforming our homes into spaces that nourish our wellbeing and reflect the people who live in them. Putting the Brakes on Beige room by room 🌈

This week marks the beginning of a new phase in our lives… all three kids are now at school 👌
It’s been a crazy busy summer balancing design work, and the school holidays, but I’m so grateful to be busy doing what I love, as well as making the most of the beautiful weather that we have been blessed with this summer. It’s now time to get stuck into some proper routine. I’m beyond excited to see 7 of my design projects reach the final stages over the next few months. It’s a really rewarding feeling when you get to see how new spaces impact your clients lives so positively 🙌🌈
2024… taking colour or the next level and I can’t wait!
