Surf and Turf








Today, I visited my new favourite shop - Surf and Turf in Nowra, near Jervis Bay. Against a blank canvas of a white floor, walls and shelving is a riot of colour in a wide variety of eclectic furnishings. These range from dreamy romantic mosquito nets and patchwork quilts in gelato colours of watermelon and pistachio, to beachy-themed items in red, white and blue, to painted garden furniture in aqua and turquoise, to the clean lines of mid-century modern. Very French, very Bohemian, very beautiful. I don't know how they've achieved the look, but it all looks fantastic together. I'll be going back to have a better look as soon as I can.

the best thing is that it all looks so summery and sunshiney! all i can do is dream!!! sitting on the couch in my flat looking outside at the wind and snow - knowing that i need to go outside (things to do) but the reality is that i'm going to put on another pair of socks and just sit here and read other peoples thoughts!

Hi Beth!

Thanks for the link!

It looks like you figured it out, but if you still need help, please e-mail me. My explanations get a little long-winded for the comments section...

Oh, look at all those treasures. This is my kind of shop.
