Wallpapered Ceilings

While this trend is nothing new, we can’t get enough of this design trick that adds an element of surprise. 

Wallpaper is not just for walls – adding colour and pattern to your ceiling will instantly enliven your space! Wallpapered ceilings draw the eye up and gives the illusion of height - plus they are just down right fun!

6 ways to incorporate mirror into your home

Mirrors are a chic design element and are the perfect addition to just about any space. They can do wonders - from creating the illusion of space, reflecting light and illuminating dark corners to adding elegance and drama to a room. Mirrors come in all shapes and sizes 

Here are 6 ways to decorate with mirrors:

1) A mirror wall creates an illusion of space and can really open up a small space




2) A mirror splashback adds glamour to the kitchen 




3) Create a gallery wall by hanging up a collection of mirrors instead of art. A perfect design solution for an empty wall - particularly in hallways and entrances




4) Mirrored furniture is yet another way you can incorporate mirror into your interiors and is a great option if you are short of wall space 





5) Over-sized or grand scale mirrors add drama to a room. Get the look by leaning the mirror against the wall as opposed to hanging



6) Mirrored tiles act like more of an art piece in this chic bathroom. Not for the faint hearted these lovely mirror tiles are a real show piece

Textile love | Bonnie and Neil

Wink & Co love Bonnie & Neil and their amazing range of creative homewares and furniture. We love the vibrant colours and natural fabrics of their tableware and bed linen range and are currently working some of their pieces into a bedroom revamp we are doing for a client. All of their products are handmade and hand-printed using water-based inks mixed onsite at the studio.  They have also just released an exciting new product range - timber tiles. These stunning tiles are all inspired by hand painted ceramics and are a decorative alternative to wallpaper in areas such as the living room and bedroom.

We also adore their reclaimed shadow boxes which are handmade from Tasmanian oak reclaimed from old houses. The boxes feature botanical and geometric designs, and can be stacked on mantles, used as bedside tables, under patios as shelves, or however you wish -  the list is endless.

Here are a few of our favourite pieces from the current collection.
