The garden chronicles continue. At this point, I'm beginning to think I should just post my garden all day everyday 😅 🙃 you all seem to like it a lot.... 

The evolution of our troppo garden corner! The stones are a cost-effective way to create an impact and a safe zone for the fire pit. However, after 4 years, the stones needed to be refreshed, and we wanted to add a bit more warmth to the backyard! 🌴

Now, with Finn on the move and putting EVERYTHING in his mouth, we wanted to create a space where we could all sit and relax Summer or Winter. We just need to find a fire pit solution for the deck... Maybe it's a tile, or a put with legs, we will suss it out!

• Decking; Stringybark Hardwood (DIY)
• Plants; Golden Cane Palm, Ginger Lily, Xanadu, (Neighbours Palms - Alexandria Palms, we think 🤔)
• Lawn; Sir Walter Buffalo
• Garden Bed Dimensions; 800mm wide
• Fire Pit Dimensions; 3200x3200
• Deck Dimensions; 3600x3600

This is your sign to plan your landscaping from start to finish... Scroll across to see where we started.

I initially went to a nursery with 3 plants in mind; Blue Chalksticks, Dichondra Silver Falls & Cousin It.... The sales rep at this particular garden centre scolded us for even suggesting plants that weren't native to WA. As a result, I walked away with 101 RANDOM native plants and no idea how to care for them.

(Photo 9 being the s**t show of a result)

So stick to your plan!

Back to the drawing board... We sourced the plants we wanted from amazing nurseries and put the right planning into soil and retic, and now, as a result, we have the greenest of gardens in the whole street!

It's an investment, but having a bore system has paid for itself many times over! We are lucky to live in a suburb where the water is clear so there is no iron residue staining!

Still absolutely obsessing over all the pieces currently in our bedroom. The perfect oasis with all the right texture. All the boys in the house are currently having a nap (yes, including the old husband). It's a perfect excuse for a cocktail, no?

How was your weekend? What did you get up to?

There is nothing like a few days away to get you thinking about more projects... We said we were done out here, but we've decided we want to make some changes to our pit! 🔥

We are thinking of a deck!! Maybe a gorgeous spotted gum like our pool shed and outdoor kitchen or a dark Eko Deck to contrast against all the white? What would you do?

I'm also thinking about a star Jasmine wall against the pool for more greenery! 🍃

We love the stones, and they have served us well, however we spend so much time out here and Oliver loves to play Bob the builder with them and as time goes on they aren't as white as they used to be!!

Dreaming of the magical moments to come with toys in Finn's nursery! While he's still small, we're excited to have these beautiful and practical treasures ready to spark his imagination as he grows! 🧸✨

However the Circus Fabric Book is becoming a fast fave for tummy time!!

Tomorrow my little milky mate is 5 months old. They aren't joking when they say blink and you'll miss it!

Finally a bit of sunlight after a week of dull weather the sun comes out just in time for me to knock back a few cocktails with a couple of girlfriends tonight. Wishing our living room looked like this but there is literally 101 monster trucks on the floor. What are your plans for the weekend?

A month before Finn arrived, we set up this built-in Zurich Parcel Box from and planted the tropical garden bed of my dreams.

We picked a very simple facade design when building as we built in an established suburb, and this was our first build! Our home is nestled between homes built in the 70s so the red brick fits right in.

We never had a vision for the front yard, so we haphazardly planted a number of natives and it always looked so average.

Now we have an easy to maintain garden with a point of interest besides to 200sqm of lawn 😂

The office is collecting a little bit of dust at the moment and I tell you what I am not even mad about it.

The days are morphing into each other at the moment but gosh we have had a busy weekend sorting the house and garden... 3 more sleeps before Oma and Opa arrive from NZ! So another day of sorting the house and baby snugs.

On the second day of Autumn 🍂 our little man Finn joined the world... He arrived safely just after 9am on the 2/3/23 a sweet 3.35kg.

Oliver's new bestie and it's official I am outnumbered at Vande.Home... it's a boys club.

We've been in the newborn bubble and have been loving all the snuggles and time as a family of four. 🤎

For all the brands that I have ongoing projects with thankyou for being so understanding and supportive during this time. 🤍

By switching to a light coloured modular the space feels bigger, brighter and more welcoming as the natural light in this space isn't always this magic ✨️

My husband and I flew to this mountain peak on our wedding day, so the artwork has a huge amount of significance to both of us and naturally it features all my favourite tones too!

Catching up with family today, still working on our projects too with less than 2 weeks before baby is here.... I love living on the edge.
