whoa, nelly! look what just rode in on a pretty white horse! i love this new collection of cushion covers and wall hangings from white horse home. sydney, australian-based online shop white horse home makes home accessories from 100% linen cotton, and screen printed using non toxic waterbased inks. simply beautiful.

white horse home is made up of a husband and wife duo, Ryan and Ali Shaw, along with their 19 month old daughter, Luxe. Both having a passion for good design and everything ‘home’, they enjoyed all facets of the process, and are looking forward to expanding their range of existing products — A range of candles will be released later in the year. in the meantine, that ‘today is a good day‘ wall hanging is mine!

i am most pleased to introduce one of my new sponsors, south street linen. partners Mary Ruth Hedstrom and Jane Ryan are painters; Lynn Krauss is a painter/printmaker. They have been soul mates for over 10 years and share a love of textiles, especially linen. Mary Ruth is a minimalist, Jane, a lover of things bold and colorful. Lynn feels strongly both ways. together they’ve created a beautiful collection of table linens, aprons and stylish scarves. Their inspiration comes from well-worn ephemera, the geometric patterns of architecture, and things Japanese and Scandinavian. beautiful, right?

I stumbled upon these great looking pillows whilst perusing Etsy today, and yum! I love the really stylish designs, utilizing simple linen and mattress ticking fabrics. Trés chic, no? Karen at White Twig learned her sewing skills by watching her mother sew, as she would patiently explain to her what she was doing and why. Karen started White Twig as a way to express what has always inspired her, despite the trends, always inspired by nature and natural materials, modern and fresh design and simple country living. If you love these lovely pillows as much as I do, you can find more designs at the White Twig Etsy shop.
