The Boathouse Gallery Blog: June 2011

Get organised...

Getting organised is so much nicer when you can have a lovely pencil case or make-up bag to pop those essential bits and bobs in.

Today we're lusting over these bright hand-finished leather pieces just in from Laurige.

Going social...

Retro chic

Today we're loving the idea of createing a retro and vintage feel in our home this summer, by introducing some subtle colour...

Go Glamping

Today we're wishing we could head off on a lovely camping trip in one of these super stylish Air-stream campervans. Just add delicious nibbles, a gripping book and throw in a warm jumper...

Today we're loving the chic, travel inspired bags from Envirosax hopefully heading for our shelves this summer. Take your pick from the Eiffel Tower, Sydney Opera House or the New York skyline....what's not to like.

All things bright and beautiful!

Proving that art and jewellery can mix we've just taken delivery of some fabulous bold and bright colourful jewellery by Michael Peckitt.

Made from treated anodised aluminium, these one off pieces are the perfect way to add a splash of colour to any outfit...or make a great gift. Choose from striking cuffs or bangles and pretty earring, brooches and rings....I'm eyeing up this blue and green cuff as we speak.

Oh I do like to be beside the seaside!

Here comes the summer ...it's time to have a BBQ on the beach, drink Pimms and wait for the sunset.

Eco chic

Who said pro-environmental products had to be dull. We're just looking at the latest cute bags from Envirosax. They're chic, enviro-friendly and won't break the bank...what's not to love?
