The other day, my dear friend Kylie (a.k.a paperboat press) sent me a photo of the above page spread taken from the june/july issue of  elle interiør norway which she’d just received a copy of in the mail. To her surprise, there on the page was not only a pic of one of her gorgeous ceramic tags (which I have dotted around my little boat) but also my book, right next to her work. How fabulous is that! Two Australians, two dear friends, side by side amongst the pages of a beautiful norwegian interior magazine. Thank you, elle interiør norway.

This week I’m going to further explore quiet spaces. Are you up for that?  Each day I will post something quiet -be it a space, a place, a moment, whatever: just things that inspire reflection and tranquility. There will be minimal words, no ramblings – just visuals. Enjoy. x
