Wanted to share some gorgeous bits around Diann's home in Auckland. She has purchased a 1960's renovated apartment. The only thing she had to do was to paint it all white!!
This is her wall art at the front entry.
(hard to take a decent photo)
I love these florals!
The original sailing ship glass windows have been retained in the bathroom and are a stunning feature.
Displaying a collection of Paua Shells.
Setting up for a casual brunch on her thrifty outdoor dining table re-purposed from an old door, complete with door mechanism still attached.
Time for a piece of the yummiest French Plum tart from the French markets. Mmmm.
Then take a wander out in the European inspired courtyard paved with vintage bricks.
Part of the dividing fence was falling apart so Diann bought a pair of old Kauri doors for a couple of dollars and organised a builder to attach them to the frame of the original fence.
Voila!
A gorgeous garden feature in her compact garden..
Hope you enjoyed a small tour of Diann's thrifty special bits and pieces as she continues to feather her new little nest.

Hi Pam, I adore everything I see here. What a beautiful apartment. I cannot get over that sailing boat glass window. One of the most amazing things I've seen. Such attention to detail. I wonder if anyone still makes these? You had a lovely stay. Pruxxx
