23.01.2022 A bed needs a bedhead, like bread needs butter and a cake needs icing. You get the drift. . Checkout my blog on Why a bedhead is like icing on a cake by linking in bio or going to www.katieriddell.com.au. . This lovely bedroom didnt have a bedhead. The bed just floated in the room. While my client didnt want anything too loud, we went for a neutral so she could change the look with different linen and cushions.... . Looking forward to getting professional photos done when lockdown relaxes. . . . #decor #Interiordecorating #bed #bedhead #inspo #melbourneinteriordecorator #interiordecoratormelbourne #interiors #interiordecor #decorate #design #homestyle #home #interiordecorator #homestory #interiorinspo #decorating #styling #creative #creativelawyer #interiordesign #covid #stayhome #staysafe #homedecor #interiorinspo See more

20.01.2022 Throwback to times when we could travel. The Scottish designer Macintosh was commissioned to design a tea room in Glascow early lat century. Flash forward decades later and the interior and furniture he designed in the arts and crafts style has been lovingly restored. And the afternoon tea isnt bad either! . . . #scottish #macintosh #artsandcraft #interior #interiordesign #travel #scotland #glascow #stayhome #precovid #hightea #interiorinspo #arthistory #interiordecorator #throwback #precorona
19.01.2022 Ive been doing a lot of baking at home during iso. My cousin dropped off a whole lots of bananas and so I tried out different banana cake recipes. And a few times I ate the cake before I iced it. But it just wasnt right. So what does this have to do with interior design?

02.01.2022 THROWBACK// Colour inspiration from the small isle of Iona, Scotland. Home to the birth of Christianity in Scotland. The island has such a calm spiritual feel to it, being isolated from the mainland. . The day I was there was overcast. Fortunately the lovely owner of the B&B we stayed at lent me her waterproof pants to put over my jeans. The wind and rain didnt stop us from enjoying such a unique place! . . . #Iona #scotland #colour #colourinspo #interiors #boat #design #throwback #whenwecouldttravel #travel #notravel #stayhome #interiorsinspo #island #imisstravel #wishiwasthere
