Christmas table
Shannon has decorated her Christmas table in a whimsical, vintage style. "I'm not a bold colour person, it's all very natural," she says.

The bathroom is an airy space with mosaic marble floor tiles from Wilson's Ceramics in Byron Bay.

Sitting pretty
Like a wayward vine, the bentwood Thonet seat establishes an elegant yet relaxed vibe that sets the mood from the moment you step foot into the house. Florence Broadhurst 'Shadow Floral' wallpaper from Signature Prints.
