Interview: Simones' shore house that is classic – d o u g l a s

After I first found a picture of the deck of Simone, I had been stunned. I understood right away that I needed to touch base with all the fortunate one who lives in this area that was enchanting. The proud and lucky owner of the small bit of paradise, Simone, lives in Brisbane, Australia. She began blogging about her home several months ago and named her site shore classic, revealing her passion with this design.
Furnishing her house with what she describes as “next-to-nothing”- used things from an area garbage center, yard sales and Ebay.com- Simone has established a wonderful and warm nest on her household.
In her website, she discusses what inspires her and reveals distinct bits she’d re-cycled, both on her home as well as for others.
I am really pleased to introduce one to Simone and her shore classic residence
