Good morning friends! It is a glorious morning in Cape Town and we firmly have our sights on spring! Although, I guess there will be a number of icy detours to contend with before we abandon our winter woollies.
I would like to welcome you all back here to my little dot in the universe and especially my new followers and those of you who have joined the face book page!
Secondly, I want to thank you all for the wonderful comments on my recent posts. and if I have not gotten back to visit you in return, please forgive me, but it was a tumultuous week of hospital visits and not much blogging going on. However, today I have the wonderful prospect of visiting you all and catching up on all the news. There are loads of you to visit though so bare with me I will roll around to you sooner or later.
I have so many things on my mind to blog about and one of those have been sitting on my mood boards for a while now. Whilst lounging around the hospital waiting room and paging through old magazines Johan Jacob Zwiegelaar provided me , yet again with the most wonderful distraction imaginable! And so, for today, I would like to share some of his genius spaces with you. Some of you might be familiar with him and his layered understated elegant rooms! In any event , do enjoy and try to pick a favourite.
After that kitchen, I am determined to get rid of the "built in cupboard" look once and for all. Mr Zwiegelaar's entire portfolio can be viewed HERE. Do enjoy it. So lets recap...
I will be joining Mosaic Monday at Dear Little Red House with Mary who graciously hosts us every Monday. please follow the link and enjoy the gardens that Mary posts.
as well as

Hope you all have a great week!

I just love the colours and freshness of this little nook full of interest and eye candy. I just want to flop down with a sigh of pleasure....By the way, I am not much of a stripe lover (although things are evolving...) but I love these.
Now, how in the world do you leave a bathroom like this one? Take a good look at the Nguni on the side.
A room with many layers but still fresh and elegant and comfortable! Oh, and loads of lamp love going on here.
I am really enjoying all the potted cacti in the above rooms, often over sized but such a wonderful accent to use. And of course, I am loving the textures and shape it adds to the rooms. Look below at the focal point and how gorgeous it looks on that wired table!
This dining room is just one of those rooms that you can't get enough of. And every time I take a new look at it I see some new element that I enjoy!
Note the lamp.
This room is probably my favourite one by him. It has all the elements that I love. The colours, busts, glass and of course I have similar painting in my living room. It is cosy and warm but elegant and filled with interest to give maximum pleasure. Okay, I will stop now, so you can enjoy the room!!
Black and white does not really feature in my home's colour palette, although I love wearing black and white together, quite a lot actually, come to think about it. It can often be overdone and too much but take a look at perfection in black and white.....
I just adore the pillows, well that is apart from all the rest of course which is just stunning!
Jars to die for!! Yes please I will stay the day and might even take a bath....
Really enjoying the touch of living green in here....
Love the tree fern...will feel like a Forest nymph....
I have left the best for last!! To my mind this is art. The whole thing!! It is gorgeous and has a rooster keeping court as well. So sorry, but I am not cooking anything for you I am just going to drool and we can phone for pizza and bubbly...
