cast iron fretwork for funky interior shelving

there is a new store on james st new farm called st barts. ridiculously expensive items (for my budget!), however lovely they are. 

i really like the old cast iron fretwork being used as shelves. really good idea. i just happen to have a heap of fretwork stashed under my house which would be perfect. hmmmm. i feel a weekend project coming on.

guest blogger: design shuffle

hello, i’m joanna, a guest blogger for design shuffle, a great place to find interior designer’s portfolios and room after room of gorgeous designs. i write daily on interior design topics, for instance this post about whitewashed floors. we can’t let the scandinavians have all of the fun! there is something romantic about whitewashed floors. they look as lovely with rustic style as they do in a formal space. below we collected some the most beautiful whitewashed rooms from around the web. hope you enjoy the post. do any of these images evoke visions of white floors and cool decorating ideas for you? which is your favorite?

Whitewashed Floors
a transitional space, with modern and traditional elements, looks cheery with its white walls and white floors. the unevenness of the floor boards adds character to the room.
Whitewashed Floors
an elegant and refined library sparkles with a smooth whitewashed wood floor and bright white walls.
Whitewashed Floors
the ornate and glamorous furnishings play nicely with the weathered white flooring in this luxurious bathroom.
Whitewashed Floors
white walls, white floors what a lovely setting for a tufted velvet chair and white furnishings. the natural light from the window gives the room a special sparkle. wouldn’t you love to see the whimsical chandelier light up this bedroom design?
Whitewashed Floors
smooth whitewashed floors provide the perfect canvas for a seating arrangement of greige furnishings. the resulting look is very calm and relaxing.
Whitewashed Floors
from living room to bedroom, this whitewashed room provides a bit of nostalgia which is nicely paired with the uneven, rustic floorboards.
Whitewashed Floors
wide plank flooring in a wash of white gives a rustic feel to a formal dining room. this is full of dining room design ideas. could this be great design for a country estate perhaps?
Whitewashed Floors
this foyer is a nice example of the beauty of whitewashed wood flooring and Scandinavian style in the foyer. the wood flooring comes around from the main floor and up the stairs.

douglas friedman photographer and some great interiors


i love nothing better than a charming white house. the mixture of roof lines and composition of pavilions works really well with this house. 






i'm pretty sure this picture is on the front of one of my belle magazines. love love love this concrete house. perhaps a bit cold underfoot for me. 










i really like the mirrored wall with the white walls. 


massive fan of the above bench rack. shouldn't be too expensive to get my local metal & steel company to knock this up (ajc metal products @ northgate - brisbane based stainless steel experts)

repost from peacock feathers

i saw this image on the peacock feathers blog and absolutely love it so i had to repost it. it is originally from canadian house & home.

if only my living room was big enough to do something similar. my all my rooms are too small for a low shelf. i'd have no where for couches.
