New bedding by The Jersey Company with 20% off for readers

May 13, 2016 2 Comments

FacebookPinEmailTweet

A newcomer to the Australian bedding scene, The Jersey Company was started by graphic designer Eve Quigley โ€“ a self-confessed bedding fanatic. โ€œIโ€™ve always been passionate about bedding. I remember dumping a cool $500ย on a whole new set while at uni and it being one of the best days of my life. I thought I had made it that day!โ€ After discovering a gap in the market, she launched her first range of 100 per cent cotton jersey bed sheets thisย month.

โ€œAbout 10 years ago I bought my first jersey doona cover and pillowcase set and thought it was the coolest thing ever. I’ve been looking to replace this same set for the last four years and I’ve searched high and low, and been disappointed with what was available. In that time, Iโ€™ve tried 1000 thread count, bamboo and of course linen sheets, but the reality always fell short of my expectations,โ€ says Eve.

With a background in photography, interior design publishing (Eve worked at both InDesign & Habitus magazines), fine art and graphic design, it was only when she wasย on maternity leave that her lightbulb moment struck.

โ€œLast year, strolling back from the coffee shop on my morning dash between feeding my daughter and putting her down for her morning nap, I thought โ€˜why canโ€™t I create the range I have been looking for?โ€™ I know everyone I spoke to about my hunt for a stylish soft bedding range agreed with me wholeheartedly so I practically ran home, jumped onto the computer to begin my research and havenโ€™t stopped for a day since,โ€ says Eve.

Made from soft and stretchy t-shirt material, the brand refers to its range as the T-SHEETโ„ข. โ€œWhen people ask me what the sheets are like, I tell them to picture their favourite oversized tee they reach for after a long day. Thatโ€™s what our jersey sheets are like. They feel like home!โ€ Eve has created a mix and match offering too – a great point of difference. โ€œEveryone likes their bed a certain way, which is why we donโ€™t do strict sheet sets. If you donโ€™t like a flat sheet, who says you have to have one? Every item can be purchased individually,โ€ says Eve who also sells bedding bundles also. โ€œWe’ve had so much amazing feedback from our photography that we have created shop-the-look bundles, so our hit looks can be created at home.โ€

The debut range features a neutral colour palette and classic styling that is designed to appeal to a wide audience — Eve isn’t interested in pushing the design boundaries just yet.ย ย โ€œWhile I feel responsible for spreading the word on the emotional and mental benefits of jersey, I want the range to win new fans rather than make any dramatic style statements!โ€ย she says.

Is there a more decadent and delicious soup than F Is there a more decadent and delicious soup than French onion?

I think not!

Grab the recipe on the blog this morning via link in bio.
Get to know me! I haven't done one of these in YE Get to know me!

I haven't done one of these in YEARS so there's possibly thousands of you who don't know my back story. Here's a few things you may not know about me!

โœ”๏ธ I'm English ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ and I moved here (just for one year) back in 2008๐Ÿ˜† 

โœ”๏ธ I can't end the day without a bath, even if I get home really late or on a really hot day. It's a mental health thing and my happy place. ๐Ÿ› 

โœ”๏ธ Before becoming a blogger and running my own small business, I was a journalist from the age of 18. My favourite news gathering times were as a newspaper crime reporter (bit different to interiors!) ๐Ÿ““ 

โœ”๏ธ I once worked at New Scotland Yard in London ๐Ÿš” 

โœ”๏ธI had an interview at Oxford (didn't get in!) but chose not to go to uni at all after being offered a job on the local paper #universityoflife ๐Ÿ˜

โœ”๏ธ My mum died when I was 3, I have an excellent dad and one sister (younger) in the UK โค๏ธ ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง 

โœ”๏ธ At school, my favourite subject was French ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท and I was head girl ๐Ÿค“๐Ÿค“

โœ”๏ธ I'm addicted to โ˜•๏ธ , long hot baths and๐Ÿ’„ (been wearing it since I was about 14!)

โœ”๏ธ I'm not a phonecall person and will never ever pick up an unknown number. Ever. They can leave a message ๐Ÿ˜

โœ”๏ธ My favourite cuisine is Japanese ๐Ÿฃ ๐Ÿœ and Damian and I honeymooned in Tokyo and Venice 

โœ”๏ธ I have zero design qualifications. I just started blogging about my passion, which is trying to persuade everyone to #heartyourhome That was 11 years ago...

โœ”๏ธ My favourite tipple is a good GnT or๐Ÿท 

โœ”๏ธ Cheesy as it sounds, ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™€๏ธbeing a mum is my absolute biggest joy in life ๐Ÿง’๐Ÿ‘ฆ

โœ”๏ธ I will never give up my old school paper diary! Has to be A5 and week to view ๐Ÿ“– 

โœ”๏ธ My official surname isn't Bishop. I kept my maiden name for work after I got married but changed it for everything else. Often confuse myself!

โœ”๏ธ I didn't get my Ps until I was 37 and I'm still a terrible parker ๐Ÿ˜ฏ ๐Ÿ…ฟ๏ธ

Hope you feel like you know me a bit better ๐Ÿ˜˜

Blue, green or lilac? ๐ŸŽจ @nood_co coloured con Blue, green or lilac? ๐ŸŽจ 

@nood_co coloured concrete basins is a great Aussie business success story. Although co founder Matt Di Costa first found fame as one half of Matt and Kim on The Block, he hasn't relied on this to build his brand.

โ€œWe are very honoured to have been a part ofย The Block, and all they have done for us. I am, however, a believer in letting the product take centre stage,โ€ he says.

Read our interview with Matt via link in bio now.

At the end of the day though, it's a matter of personal taste. I love pops of colour but it's not for everyone. 

We couldn't resist featuring this Canadian house tour today. The amazing Kelly Green  hutch (swipe) was an upcycled $200 find ๐Ÿค—

The things that excite me as a 40 year old ๐Ÿคญ N The things that excite me as a 40 year old ๐Ÿคญ

None of us enjoy laundry (OK, there are a few of you out there who do. Weird!) but we have to do it. And often. So if your laundry bin can be as good looking, functional and space saving as this, then why wouldn't you?!

I've lost track of how many baskets I've thrown out because they've gone soggy or mouldy. They look pretty, sure, but they're not fit for purpose and they're often messy and overflowing.

Here's what I love about his @brabantia_australia one:

โœ”๏ธ ventilation holes
โœ”๏ธ no need to remove the lid for small items plus it hides your dirty laundry from view
โœ”๏ธ easily removable and washable inner laundry bag that velcros back on 
โœ”๏ธ corrosion resistant so fine in bathroom or laundry 
โœ”๏ธ Brabantia make things as sustainably as possible
โœ”๏ธ compact, sleek, European design
โœ”๏ธ 10 year warranty
โœ”๏ธ tall and skinny so takes up less floor in my tiny laundry

The Rolls Royce of laundry bins? I think so ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป

TOLD you this was going to be exciting!

Now I need to know, do you have your laundry basket in the bathroom, the laundry, every bedroom? We used to have one in each bedroom but moved to the laundry-only situation which I much prefer (one for colours and one for whites). My boys know to put their used clothes in the bin in the laundry each night and they're 7 and 3!  #raisingfuturehusbands

"Living rooms are important spaces where our publi "Living rooms are important spaces where our public and private lives intersect."

So says stylist @nataliewalton in her gorgeous new book Style, the Art of Creating a Beautiful Home.

"They are where we gather to welcome guests and entertain. But they are also where we decompress and relax at the end of the day. Increasingly, they are open-plan spaces and need to work within a greater scheme. Bringing all the elements together cohesively requires care and consideration. And, if you want a space that lives up to its true potential, make it personal and create with conviction."

Read an extract, the chapter on elevating your living room, on the blog today via link in bio.
