24.01.2022 You can never go wrong with adding a bit of texture to your interiors. We created our "velvet filler" collection for just this reason. When you need a pop of colour or a bit of texture, then these are the way to go. And they feel amazing - bonus! .... . . . . . . . #liefthelabel #interiordecor #home #decorideas #loveyourhome #decoration #homedesign #interiordesign #roomdecor #interiorstyling #smallbusinessPerth #ethicallymade #handmadecushions #handmadepillows #supportsmallbusinessperth #buywithaclearconscience #cushionsperth #pillowsperth #australianmade See more
21.01.2022 They say a change is as good as a holiday. Since most of us had to cancel our holiday plans, we can make a change then. I'm talking about changing the way we shop. Over the next few days we are going to have a look at how we can make small changes to the way we shop to have a big impact on ourselves, our wallet, the people we buy from and our planet. To get you into the flow of things, I will start off by recommending that we be more mindful when w...e shop. What I mean by mindful shopping is to shop with intent. Being mindful of what we are buying, being aware of the item we are buying - its origin and what we will do with it. It is sort of the opposite of ‘impulse-buying’. On another note, this close-up of one of our hand-embroidered cushions from our Coastal collection is giving me all the holiday feels (maybe because I'm longing to travel and explore more beaches and landscapes). The colours are inspired by the colours of the ocean and the embroidery is inspired by the mountains. I hope you all have a lovely week! . . . #liefthelabel #smallbusinessPerth #ethicallymade #handmadecushions #handmadepillows #supportsmallbusinessperth #buywithaclearconscience #cushionsperth #pillowsperth #australianmade #nature #slowliving #mindfulshopping #shopping #mindfulness #handembroidery See more

19.01.2022 A tip on being more mindful when we shop. Ask yourself: Is it a need or a nice-to-have? Is the item you are contemplating buying something that will fulfil a need or is it just something that caught your eye and would be nice to add to your collection of other ‘useless’ things. ... Choose quality over quantity. . . . #liefthelabel #smallbusinessPerth #ethicallymade #handmadecushions #handmadepillows #supportsmallbusinessperth #buywithaclearconscience #cushionsperth #pillowsperth #australianmade #qualityoverquantity #luxuryhomewares #mindfulshopping See more
19.01.2022 We find ideas and inspiration for our home style from nature, books, magazines, Pinterest, Instagram, shopping or just by visiting someone else's home. Stores and magazines inspire us with what is new for the next season. Occasionally we can splurge a bit and buy a new item, but most of the time we can manage beautiful styling with what we already have. . . .... #slowliving #mindful #newideas #inspiration #homedecor #reuse #handmadecushions See more
18.01.2022 Happy weekend lovelies! When you are out and about on your shopping trip this weekend, think about these words for a few seconds. You deserve the best quality for your buck so be mindful when you purchase. Find out a bit more about the products and items before you buy. Do you know the brand? Do you agree with their values? Do your research before you support a brand. When you buy from a company, you are voting for them with your wallet, ...so make sure their values and your values align. Happy shopping everyone!

17.01.2022 Introducing our linen collection. All the cushions in this collection have hand embroidered details in different colours.
16.01.2022 We need to re-evaluate how we shop. Have you ever bought an item just because it was on sale or really cheap, but then realised fairly quickly you don't like it that much? And just as easily got rid of it again? I have noticed we don't attach as much value to items anymore. It's probably because most of the things we buy are super cheap and cheaply made. Buying a $15 dress for one night out or a $10 dinner set for a themed dinner party is... so common and easy because we can just as easily get rid of it afterwards. But did you ever stop to think where these things go when we get 'rid' of it? There is no 'away' anymore. The #waronwaste is very real and the responsibility to fight it falls on each and every one of us. Don't think because you are donating it to Good Sammies afterwards that you have done your part. Op shops are overflowing with items and clothes people don't want anymore and only a small percentage of it gets sold. The rest goes to charities, other 3rd world countries or landfill. We stopped thinking where items came from, who made it, and where it will go once we are done with it. One easy step toward a more sustainable future is thinking twice before you buy. Buy less, buy better quality to last a long time and buy more thoughtfully. I promise the earth and your wallet will be grateful. . . . #liefthelabel #smallbusinessPerth #ethicallymade #handmadecushions #handmadepillows #supportsmallbusinessperth #buywithaclearconscience #cushionsperth #pillowsperth #australianmade #slowliving #connect #mindful #nature #responsibleconsumerism #mindfulshopping #quality #ethicalhomewares #homewares See more

09.01.2022 Slow down Spend time outside Listen Breathe Reflect... We can get so caught up in our day to day activities and work that we quickly forget what matters most to us. Slowing down helps us figure out what the important things are. Once you’ve figured that out, manage your time in such a way that you spend more time on the people and things that are important to you, and less time on the insignificant drama, tv shows, social media and news. . . . . . #slowlivingaustralia #slowliving #ethicalfashionaustralia #slowdown #spendtimeinnature #mindfulliving #handcraftedclothing #whatmatterstoyou
09.01.2022 "I have a shelf or two in a cupboard with summer and winter props. Things like vases, candleholders, candles, (lots of candles for the cold winter months!) baskets, small accessories, as well as covers for my throw cushions. I like to change up my items for every new season. Cushions in the summer gets a cooler colour sleeve and winter is softer and warmer tones. I prefer to use natural fabrics like linen, cotton or wool. ... In my linen closet, I keep fluffy winter blankets, throws and a few sheepskins to cozy things up for the cold winter months. You could even roll up and store your living room rug during the summer and bring it back for the winter months. I change some of our smaller prints in our home with clean crisp looking prints for summer and wintery theme ones for the colder months."

07.01.2022 Today on the blog We sit down and suss out the true cost of #fashion. I have to be honest, I work with information from the fast fashion world constantly, and have been for a few years now. But when I did a cost breakdown - I show how this works in the blog - even I was surprised at what I found.... We simply cannot continue with this fashion model. It really isn’t sustainable. Not for the Earth and not for humans further down the supply chain. I give a few affordable slow fashion alternatives, so don’t worry, it’s not all doom and gloom This blog post will be the first in a series where we will discuss the true cost of fashion, the outcome of it and some very practical solutions. I would love to hear your thoughts on this . What is the biggest obstacle that prevents you from joining a more #sustainable fashion movement?
07.01.2022 Yes, you can totally have a colourful home without it looking cluttered and messy. This week I will share 3 tips on how to style your home without it looking messy. Tip #1:... Decide on a colour scheme for your home and stick to it. We usually are attracted to one particular colour that appears in every room. Pick a colour that you are naturally attracted to. This doesn't mean if your colour is blue then every single thing in your house needs to be blue. But repeat pops of the colour in different areas. In this picture the blue is repeated in the carpet, cushions and artwork. This helps your area look cohesive. But be careful. Too many colours can very quickly look cluttered. If you have a colourful rug, make sure your walls are painted a neutral colour. or if you have an accent wall, have neutral furniture and rugs and repeat the colour on the wall in cushions, a vase or a pop of colour elsewhere. What colour runs throughout your house? Switch on the post notifications for the rest of this week to make sure you don't miss the other two tips . . . . . . . . #liefthelabel #interiordecor #home #decorideas #loveyourhome #decoration #homedesign #interiordesign #roomdecor #interiorstyling #smallbusinessPerth #ethicallymade #handmadecushions #handmadepillows #supportsmallbusinessperth #buywithaclearconscience #cushionsperth #pillowsperth #australianmade #decortips #homestylingtips See more
