Colour and Warmth

It seems like the forever winter and here at Sedonia we can't get enough of the soft, woolly, colourful and warm. Another parcel of beautiful Uimi scarves arrived today. They get better and better with each season. This year we have been reordering their two tone texture scarf in teal, cherry and charcoal.

We also love Uimi's zigzag texture scarf - seen here in teal. Wear it with one of Emily Green's necklaces for some eye-popping happiness.

Another house favourite, this time in cosy velvet, is the Marimekko cushion. It's sitting on a couple of snug throws from D-lux and Creswick woollen mills. Creswick also make the Alpaca socks we haven't left the house without on those freezing mornings.

As we post this the winter sun has come out and we can see the Jasmine about to open across the road,
sunny days ahead!

Trunk and Orderly

We have been patiently waiting for our Trunk and Orderly cases to arrive so that we can go visiting in old school style. Beautifully made, Trunk and Orderly's cases look retro but they are the REAL thing.

Each case is individually handcrafted in Ballarat by Joel Adams and crew using equipment he bought from the last generation of the Everlite Travel Goods Company. For the full story visit their website.

The weekender is perfect for traveling or storing stuff at home. It even has a lock that makes that satisfying clicking sound .

My favourite is the lunch case, big enough for lunch and your book/iPad and a drink bottle.

One step up from the Lunch case is the Kinder case, a sort of mini-me weekender. Big enough for a child's sleepover or day out. In the background you can see one of the storage sets, great for precious papers and accessories.

Winter wonders

With winter in full swing, Sedonia is now stocking a selection of Australian-made furniture. Sofas and armchairs can be upholstered in a wide range of beautiful fabric from Australian company Warwick. Pictured here is the three-seat sofa in grey wool felt - just perfect for those cosy afternoons in front of the fire. 

And for the kitchen or dining room we have bright Bentwood chairs in red, yellow and white - a fresh take on an old classic.

Also new in stock are these winter shift dresses from our Finnish friends at Marimekko. In rich purples and mustards, these are sure to keep the winter blues away!
