Vintage style lockers in fab colours: new brand Mustard

April 16, 2018 6 Comments

FacebookPinEmailTweet

The creation of transcontinental sisters Rebecca and Jessica Stern, Mustard lockers caught our eye recently because not only do they feature clean and simple lines, theyโ€™re uber practical and reasonably priced too. โ€œIโ€™ve always had a thing for lockers! It dawned on me that there was something missing in the market so we set out to create the products we would love for our own homes,โ€ says Rebecca.

Combining their experience in fashion buying and small business, the girls take inspiration from original art deco designs and have captured the elusive trifecta โ€“ the lockers are a perfect balance of form, function and flexibility. Versatile, the lockers can work anywhere in a home though the sisters tend to focus on kidsโ€™ rooms, work spaces and corners of the home that require extra stylish storage.

โ€œWe know that lockers might not be everybodyโ€™s cup of tea and thatโ€™s ok, like mustard itโ€™s an acquired taste! We are aiming for an audience who appreciate vintage style, beautiful colours and a sense of individuality,โ€ says Rebecca.

The lockers

The signature piece is The Skinny ($299) – a tall and slender locker with a clothes rail and adjustable shelving. โ€œIt is a perfect wardrobe space for my babyโ€™s clothes in his bedroom but I also have one next to my desk filled with all my work stationary and paperwork,โ€ says Rebecca.

The Shorty, $199, is the more diminutive of the two designs and it works fabulously as a bedside table, handy side table or office storage. The fact that it is lockable makes it even more appealing – but in good news for parents the key is not required for closing the door. โ€œWe wanted to be able to lock them but also notย haveย to lock them, so yes, you can remove the key and it holds shut with a magnet,โ€ says Rebecca who finds the key very handy with her mischievous toddler as it stops him pulling the contents out.

Available in six excellent colours โ€“ mustard, blush, slate, navy, white and olive โ€“ the pair worked with Miriam Ragen Colour Consulting to perfect the palette. โ€œMustardโ€™s carefully selected colour palette of moody tones, brights and muted colour will work to complement and enhance your existing spaceโ€ says Miriam.

Office storage

As for working from different continents (Rebecca lives in Australia and Jessica in London), the sisters find technology bridges the gap. โ€œWe FaceTime most mornings and nights and delegate what needs to be achieved. Itโ€™s great having someone who you can be completely honest with and if anything, it has brought us closer as sisters,โ€ says Rebecca.

The lockers will arrive in retail stores in June but are available for pre-order online now.

A glass shower screen is not the only option! In A glass shower screen is not the only option!

In this 80s villa reno, @trentinidesign took inspiration from an archway typical of the era and used it throughout the home.

The bathroom was transformed from a classic three-piece set up that included a shower, bath and vanity. Kathryn removed the bath and split the room in half and designed an arch to sit between the two zones. 

โ€œI wanted something spectacular. Rather than having a vanity with a piece of glass like you would typically see, I was really trying to push myself as a designer. It was costly but it worked out well and the feedback has been great."

Will you check out the joyful and colourful reno of her holiday home (and airbnb) @yo_caba_caba?!

Head over to the blog via link in bio to read all about why she went bold and full of pattern in this project, which is a stark contrast to her zen and neutral Northern Beaches abode.

There's also plenty of details about where things are from etc.

"Iโ€™m not an interior designer so I just chose what I liked and followed my gut. Ultimately this home has been an opportunity to explore my alter ego โ€“ it allowed me to do things that I wouldnโ€™t normally do.โ€

Not many friends in life fall into the unofficial Not many friends in life fall into the unofficial family category and they're a special gift. So ends three weeks with @danisteve81 who left her husband and son in the UK (I'm forever grateful they lent her to me!) to come and cheer me up and help me in the most practical ways after I spent Christmas and New Year in hospital. There were tears and I miss her so much already but how amazing to have had all that time together as adults. Such a rare treat and would never have happened without having been through something so challenging. Silver linings and all that. So many other friends have also been incredibly thoughtful and kind. There aren't many times I'd say this without cringing but I am 100% blessed!

I still cannot believe we have been friends since we were 12! 12! Are you still close with your childhood besties?
The renovation of this 80s beach shack @camillo_ho The renovation of this 80s beach shack @camillo_house is a work of art and while almost every surface was updated, the decision to keep the original slate floor was genius if you ask us. 

Owner @clarehillier__ says: "With its purple, pink, red and brown tones, the slate was the starting point for our interior palette."

Come and check out the before and afters via link in bio now and read the reno story. It's a real beauty.

And you can book it for your next holiday too!
