    From 70s Brick Box to Timeless Beach House

    March 31, 2018April 1, 2018

    I love Perth. But in my humble opinion, the rugged NSW coast has to be one of the most beautiful and special parts of Australia. A few years ago my sister-in-law relocated from Sydney to live in a beach house in a small town a couple of hours south of the city (just near Berry,

January 15th finally came round – the date the guys from TJP Carpentry were scheduled to start on our Scyon Walls mixed material makeover, and they’ve almost finished!

    A Tiny Bedroom Reveal: Little Nerd’s Nursery

    January 28, 2018January 31, 2018

    So, most bloggers probably share their baby’s nursery when they’re still pregnant, or maybe in the months after the newborn has arrived. Most probably don’t share it when their little person is two and a half years old… and they’re uh, pregnant again. Clearly I am not most bloggers! But better late than never, right?

    New style of home (a professional will help)

    December 29, 2017December 31, 2017

    Today I’m finally sharing our laundry renovation on here! I absolutely love our laundry makeover. If you were to ask me which renovation project in our house has given me the most satisfaction, I have to say I think it would be this room. And I don’t even LIKE doing laundry. This is my favourite

    A Blissful Pool Retreat for a 100-Year-Old Rural Farmhouse

    December 10, 2017December 10, 2017

    Imagine having acres and acres of land around you, no other houses as far as the eye can see. Sounds like heaven – right? But what if it’s so many endless acres of space that every so often you actually end up craving a little more intimacy, a bit more privacy and enclosed space? That’s

    Renovating our House: What I’ve Learned and My Advice for Renovators

    November 20, 2017January 28, 2018

    “If we ever renovate again, I would…” “Our next house, we should do this…” These are words Mr Nerd and I have uttered to each other many a time as we’ve been ankle-deep in renovation rubble here. I am still FAR from a renovating pro, but we’ve learned a lot of things through trial and

    How to Choose the Right White Paint for Your Home

    November 3, 2017November 3, 2017

    One of the most common problems I think people have when renovating and decorating their homes is choosing the right white paint. We love our white walls in Australia, and for good reason – white walls are versatile, they feel fresh, light and airy, they work with all kinds of décor and they can make

    How to Choose Great Lighting for Your Home: Tips to Give You Confidence

    November 2, 2017November 10, 2017

    Choosing lighting for our home is one thing I used to put in the ‘too hard so I don’t want to think about’ basket. It meant I would walk into a lighting store, become completely overwhelmed, argue with my husband, and then we’d just be so overwhelmed and undecided we’d walk right out again without

    How to Clad Over a Double Brick House

    October 21, 2017October 21, 2017

    Since we have started our project to rejuvenate the exterior of our house using Scyon Walls™cladding, I have been blown away by the number of people interested in these products and asking me questions about it. I’m not blown away because I’m surprised – I think the products are fantastic – but blown away by

    A Light and Bright Home Renovation in North Fremantle

    October 13, 2017October 15, 2017

    When I am scrolling through Instagram, the photos always guaranteed to stop me in my tracks are ones of renovating. Maybe it’s because I have always been obsessed with a good before and after story – all the bits, from the demo to the drywall to the decking being laid out – but there is

    Before and After: A Beautiful Traditional Kitchen Renovation

    September 23, 2017September 25, 2017

    Aside from our own renovations, I haven’t often featured room makeovers on Modaokon – I’ve always gone the whole hog and done a whole house. Even though putting together full home tours – like this one – take me ages, I haven’t often done ‘room renovations’, such as a kitchen or bathroom only, because

I am disturbingly absent-minded. I don’t know how I retain stupid information, like that there are four to

    A DIY Makeover for a Daggy 70s Willetton Home

    Would you buy a house you hated? Could you make an offer on a home with an interior you didn’t like at all – a home that was actually a particularly ugly example of the era it was built? Home owners Craig and Emma Croxford did – buying a 1970s Willetton house that was so
