They are available in a loose-fit linen version, a leather version and a tight fit cotton version.

There's an Australian company called Comfort Works that does Nikkala slipcovers for only $289 aud. They sometimes have specials and free delivery within Australia. Worth checking out. Peace.

How awesome! This reminds me of the post on beer can butterflies (Wall decor). Visionary!

Just saw this post and how a majority of people loved and recommended the IKEA Kramfors leather. Just found out that it has been discontinued by IKEA. Luckily, there's a company called Comfort Works that does leather reupholstery for Ikea sofas. Found their blog recently http://bit.ly/bmtzZL. Hope this helps =)

I'd stick to the classic exposed brick and white detailing plus a deep red door. If your budget allows for it, think about updating the colour of your roof? It may be the most interesting change of all.

Check out http://www.atomic-ranch.com/ for ideas.

Best of luck!

o' yes, please post pictures once you are done!

My partner and I work from home so the majority of our time is spent in our make-shift office.

We decided to convert the main bedroom into our office while turning the second bedroom into our master bedroom.

This turn out great for numerous reasons:
1) The office (originally the main bedroom) has the best natural light, the most space and the most electricity sockets (important for the multiple computers/printers/scanners etc).

2)We didn't want to compromise on the design of our living room and it got tiring trying to clear up sheets of files and paper when guest pop by.

3) The bedroom was used for the right reason...sleep.

Here's an idea instead of plastic:

I've a friend who uses old baby booties or socks to store all her wires and knick knacks. Its a great idea as babies grow out of their clothing so quickly! And it was really cute to open a drawer full of colourful stuffed baby socks =)

Discovered this company at a gift fair last year. They are called LIT and they sell loose beads of wax which allows you to create your own candle. I loved the idea of it and how these beads were infused with different fragrances and colors. Here's the website: http://www.lit.com.au/
