Work with Jen

There are many ways you can work with us. You may be looking at a content marketing campaign, where we work with you to tell your story to our engaged and trusting online audience via sponsored posts on the blog and our social media channels. But increasingly, Jen is employed as a brand ambassador to represent a relevant company and often act as their media spokesperson. She has done this for brands such as Amazon Australia, ING bank, Spotlight and Aldi.

Lizzy Erskine, PR manager at Amazon Australia, says: ” I worked with Jen on a holiday campaign where she acted as the stylist and talent for media, whilst also pushing content through her own channels. Jen was a pleasure to work with and went above and beyond to ensure the campaign went smoothly. I would happily work with Jen again and would recommend her work to other brands.”

Watch Jen’s Facebook video content for Spotlight

Although a journalist rather than a stylist, Jen has a great eye and is often asked to style events. Nick Casey, Group PR & Communications Manager for Spotlight Retail Group, says: “Jen’s approach to styling perfectly encapsulates classic design ethos with a modern Australian slant. Her styling for Spotlight’s Christmas Showcase brought our product to life in a new and dynamic way, and our guests loved her expertise and insight.”

Jen worked with Big W as their homewares expert and media spokesperson in Spring 2021

Jen has represented Early Settler on morning television to talk about their products.

And she was filmed by A Current Affair, talking about Aldi’s homewares offering.

Jen can also create video content for your brand using her preferred videographer, hair and makeup etc.

Jen prides herself on an approach which is real, relatable and authentic.

As a journalist since she was 18, both in the UK and Australia and on newspapers and magazines before starting her own business in 2012, she has a wealth of writing and editing experience so is ideally placed to help you create eBooks or other written content. She ghost wrote the bestselling coffee table book The Tailored Interior by Greg Natale.

Of course we offer display ads too, on the blog and in the twice-weekly newsletter, and solus EDMs. We offer heavily discounted packages for our loyal longterm advertisers booking 6 and 12-month campaigns.

For more information, a chat, a quote or our most recent media kit, please contact us.

Appliance colour trends: They've certainly change Appliance colour trends:

They've certainly changed over the years. Remember when ALL fridges were white?! I remember the original BROWN wall oven in our 60s kitchen here pre-reno! I think the dishwasher was brown and beige (and it tripped the electrics every time we used it!) 😜

What do you think of this new dark stainless steel option (pictured) from Westinghouse as seen in @dnaofdesign_'s latest reno? Yay or nay? 

What colour do you like your appliances?

A door to door continuous curved stone ledge in th A door to door continuous curved stone ledge in this bathroom is one of the cleverest designs we've seen in a while!

This mega ledge, made of Corian, even incorporates a sink, seamlessly.

Combined with venetian plaster on the walls, it's no wonder this Illawarra bathroom by @birdblackdesign feels like a day spa!

Come check it out via link bio.

Lead designer Stuart Gibson says: "One smooth curve, right around the room, from either side of the door opening. As it moves around, it creates a ledge for the bath: for bath oils, lotions, a book and a champagne glass. The ledge continues around and becomes the vanity, widening out to create a custom seamless basin."

Low tox and planet friendly laundry liquid (and sh Low tox and planet friendly laundry liquid (and sheets and soap and powder!). We have a great roundup of the best options on the blog today. 

A whole host of brands are offering eco-friendly, low tox alternatives to the more chemical-laden ones. Not only that, they often smell amazing, look good on your shelf and come in recycled or recyclable (or even better, both) packaging. 

Good for your skin, your clothes and the planet: what’s not to like?

Do you use any of these?

Play room goals!πŸ‘ŒπŸ» This is just one room fr Play room goals!πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

This is just one room from today's real house tour which I really love because in employing interior designer @issyandhcreative the owners weren't looking for a complete rip out and re-do but rather to work with what they had in their new suburban home (including a dated kitchen) and give it a largely cosmetic glow up with styling and new furniture (some of which was upcycled). 

The brief was to create a family friendly home. "They weren't looking for perfection but rather a warm and relaxing retreat for their busy young family." This playroom though? Pretty close to perfect! And the mum did the colour coded books herself. Love that😁

Head over to the blog now via link in bio to see the rest of this home.

Bookworms need a cosy book nook! πŸ“– πŸ› Seb an Bookworms need a cosy book nook! πŸ“– πŸ›

Seb and Charlie had one of those kid size couches in their playroom but frankly, they'd outgrown it! I picked this Aussie made compact 2-seater Ruby sofa from @fantasticfurniture 

I'd usually go for grey to keep it neutral but as it's in a kid's room I went for this heather blue fabric to make it a little more fun while still classic. There's more than 50 fabric choices for Fantastic's Aussie made range so good luck choosing πŸ˜‚ 

I left the legs off to keep it below the windowsill. I'm super happy with the quality. It looks a lot more expensive than its $699 pricetag πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

Books, natural light and a cosy couch = happy boys! And let's not pretend they won't be watching the odd movie on there too 🍿 because #keepingitreal
