Thursday night in Brisbane saw several hundred people join me at the opening of Matt Blatt‘s new store in Doggett St, New Farm. What a great night! I turned up a little early to take some snaps. I knew once the crowds poured in it would be difficult  to do anything except talk furniture and blogs, champagne in hand. I’m really excited about the new pieces that Matt Blatt are introducing to their already extensive range. Lots of ethnic and colour brights, quirky boho and beautiful contemporary timber pieces. Loved the rugs too but that’s no surprise because we all know I have a rug fetish. Thank you to the Matt Blatt crew for inviting me to be part of their special night. If you are in the south east Queensland area you really should drop in to the New Farm store and say hi to Aleks and his team.

P.S. Don’t forget our Matt Blatt giveaway for Australian readers. It is open for another week and I can tell you that having seen the chairs in person they are fab! Talk about a summer tonic. Head over here to enter.

My Freedom insider sent me another peek at Freedom’s new range for Summer. And for Aussie readers a sweet little family and friends offer of 15% off until Sunday. Pop over to my page and you can print off the offer then hop into participating stores and get some extra bang for your buck. Hmmm there is a rug I have my eye on…perfect timing.

From my insider at Freedom a little preview of what’s in store from Tuesday 7th August.  Summer brights, a range with a coastal vibe and the new Woodlands story. Can’t wait to see more.

I showed you the Four Hands showroom earlier, but there were so many other showrooms that caught my eye as well. While partaking in the Traditional Home treasure hunt, I managed to snap some photos of pieces that pretty much distracted me from the tasks at hand.

Another of my favourite showrooms was Lulu & Co. I love French furnishings – the rustic vibe, classic and understated. These guys do it VERY well. 

Palecek was also in my top 3 showrooms. Every single piece was absolutely gorgeous and made of the most incredible materials. Unfortunately I didn’t end up snapping many photos there. 

Loved the pieces by Fred. Wood and steel case goods with a mid-century modern vibe. 

POLaRT – the craziest outdoor furniture I’ve ever seen. Go big or go home with this collection. 

Room Service had such funthrow pillows in bold patterns and colours.

Classic Home had some beautiful light fixtures (not sure if they were part of their collection or not) and bedroom display.

Classy outdoor furniture by Robert Allen.

Now this is my type of outdoor furniture – loungey and casual. The Nest Collection by Seasonal Living.

Lexington had some HOT pieces that were high gloss fabulous like this credenza and ornate Rococo-esque bed. 

Loved this Laura Ashley lamp with a design on the inside of the lampshade. So pretty when turned on with a bright bulb.

The Arteriors showroom was very inspiring but unforuntately I didn’t take many photos. However, this little vignette caught my eye. Such a pretty display of wild flowers.
