The home of... Justina Blakeney

The gloriously bright and bohemian home, also known as the Jungalow of Interior Designer Justina Blakeney


Bright and Eclectic Interior design: Organic cream and neon Orange

Wooden floors, beautiful textiles and houseplants


I love the apple green paint on those kitchen windows

Justinas, beautiful bedroom, complete with Handira and Suzani textiles


I have a thing about turquoise cupboards at he moment- this vintage cupboard has been given a modern twist with a coat of brilliant turquoise paint
IN the bedroom: African masks and that stunning Metal lamp
Justina's bargain find from the Rosebowl
I have been a big fan of Justina Blakeney for some time now. Her beautiful blog is always such a warm place to visit... recipes, fashion and bohemian interior design all in one place, whats not to love?

So I was really pleased when Justina agreed to let me share with you some of the pictures of her beautifully eclectic, bohemian home. Using a mixture of organic, natural colours, international textiles, juxtaposed with bright neon cushions and paint work, this house really is so individual and beautiful. There is even a beautiful Handira hanging above the bed...I am totally inspired for my new home...

So head over to her blog and prepared to get lost

Thank you Justina

Only three more years and good ole Queen Liz has surpassed the longest reigning monarch in British history, Queen Victoria (a personal favourite). Here in the UK, we have had two extra bank holiday days (4 day weekend) with plenty of street parties, bunting, cucumber sandwiches and most importantly, the obligatory British Drinking sessions.....

Calm, relaxing bedrooms....

Relaxed and chilled Bohemian Style bedroom via Pinterest
Bohemian Interior : Pure White
Faiths Magical Tree House bedroom via Apartment Therapy
Bohemian Bedroom :African Inspired fabrics and colours
Vintage Suzani Throw and sheepskin rug : Justina Blakeney
Who ever said buying a house was stressful was sure right. Mortgages, solicitors and Piranha like estate agents,  so tempting to rent for ever, or run away with the deposit to Thailand.... so very tempting!!

However, then I wouldn't have a bedroom of my own to decorate and fill with pretty things. Guess I will just have to plod on and keep calm ...
