ROOM WITH A VIEW – KITCHEN WINDOW

Posted on by shaynna

Today’s room with a room comes via my kitchen window!  Two weeks till winter and Autumn is doing her final coat of colours dance like a very proud peacock.  Last week it snowed only 30kms from my house but this morning the air has a warm tinge like an early breath of Spring.  Mother Nature confused? Well is was meant to be ‘Rapture’ yesterday, so a little weather hangover is understandable.  If this is Mother Nature’s hangover I don’t even need to take an asprin with this to cope with something so beautiful.
What is your favourite view from your home?  I would love to hear about yours.

PS The colours were not enhanced for this photo – it really is that stunning!

DOES YOUR HOME HAVE A VIEW?

Posted on by shaynna

A home with a view ‘to die for’ is not only the ultimate home but the ultimate lifestyle.  Your quality of life definitely goes up a few notches with view like this.  The outlook of your home has a direct influence on your mood.  Don’t believe me? Imagine a view of a rubbish tip compared to this picture!

Not everyone can afford these million dollar views but think of ways you enhance your view to increase your mood.
You could put a vertical garden on a brick wall or your balcony,

 A full vertical wall from H20 Designs can be a flower, vegetable or herb garden.

Create a window farm…..

 Espalier plants to form a screen…..

or if the view is so bad you could even go down the road of a Le Trompe mural!
