• Circle of Friends Award

  This post is dedicated to my long-time school friend Chris (AKA Twirling Betty www.twirlingbetty.com.au). She has been twirling away on her blog for many more months than I have… and was in fact the reason I started Hey Bernice! five months ago. Over coffee one day (whilst discussing her new blog) she said to me…

• Butterfly Mania

  I have a thing for butterflies at the moment – maybe it has something to do with the current metamorphosis my life is undertaking right now. We have sold our home in the city (Melbourne), and bought a block of land on a golf course, about 800m from the beach in Torquay (all in the…

• A new look for an old lampshade

  I don’t know about you, but it is really hard to find a good lampshade these days. It was time I took things into my own hands and created what I was looking for. I had received a hand-me-down lampshade from my grandmother (via mum). It had a rather grand marble base that could also…

And you are forgiven for harbouring those thoughts as I introduce yet another item I found on the footpath about a month ago…. a gorgeous…

• A first class renovation: Interior design showcase

  house in our street is up for sale by auction next weekend, and as a nosey supportive neighbour I naturally tip-toed next door to have a look inside (twice!). Why twice? Because there was so much to take in – the interior design particulars, and smart renovation techniques needed more than one visit to absorb.…
