From sweet "millennial pink" to bold coral.

Well, it's official, we painted the living room! After 6 months of looking at greige-colored walls we finally bit the bullet and got down to giving our walls an enormous glow-up. I couldn't be more thrilled with how it came out: It's warm, it's inviting and changes with the lighting throughout the day. Now, if we could just get serious about our furniture and art decisions we'll be ready to close the book on our living room overhaul. Here's The Colors We Used To Make This Project Come Alive Living Room: Clare Paint Rosé Season Hallway: Clare Paint Baby Soft Trim and Kitchen: Clare Paint Whipped JavaScript is currently disabled in this browser. Reactivate it to view this content. Notes: We wanted to go a little bolder in the living room but knew we needed to 'bleed over' into the hallway and kitchen because they're all basically the same room. I had a hard time deciding between the two shades of pink so we ultimately compromised and went with Rosé Season for the living room part and a contrasting lighter shade for the hallway in Baby Soft (this color is absolutely magical). Finally we chose warm, white Whipped for the trim and kitchen I honestly cannot say enough good things about Clare. The quality is ultra-premium. It goes on flawlessly (not a single drip and dries in less than hour- easy to put on two or more coats in a day). No VOC's & Greenguard Gold certified. Best part? It's shipped straight to your door and you can include tools. The tools are high quality and reasonably priced. It was probably the easiest paint project I've ever conquered, like, ever. - The Inspiration - -The Before- - The After -

What: Fleur S’S Collection Shoot When: July 2022 Photographer: Armelle Habib, assisted by Sara Wilkosz and Maki Levine Stylist (Play): Heather Nette King, assisted by David Retallack Model: Hannah De Carolis (Giant Management) Hair + Makeup: Melonie Santos With special thanks to: the entire Sage x Clare team Where: Poets Lodge, Daylesford, VIC. Prop partners: House Of Orange, Nord Modern, The Cullin Design, Ubabub, Earth Darlings,The Family Love Tree and Vintage Posters Only. As our collections continue to grow bigger… so do our photoshoots. And boy-oh-boyyy Fleur was a biggie! On an icy cold Sunday evening in July we rolled into our Daylesford location with a whole lotta props, people and pretty things. We were so very excited to spend the next nine days bringing Fleur to life at Poet’s Lodge. It was the most perfect setting for Fleur, amongst the trees, with a blooming garden and oozing with nostalgia + old school charm. There are three locations at Poet’s Lodge - The Garden Loft, The Main House and Old Jack’s Cottage, we were lucky enough to have the entire property to ourselves. You can book any of these three locations here. Our last five photoshoots (including Fête) have taken place in this charming town… anyone need a Daylesford tour guide? Yup we love it there. Months of planning goes into these shoots and with Covid still looming in the air, the nerves were pretty high. I was just over half way in my pregnancy with Poppy and quite frankly, was feeling oh so tired for most of the shoot. Thank GOODNESS for Cliffy’s brownies getting me through the 3pm slump most days. Pictured here - The Main House, one of the oldest houses in Daylesford - originally built as a miners cottage in 1852. How special is that? Our Marketing Manager Deb havin' a snooze amongst the cushions. Puffer jackets were worn at ALL times. It was freeeeezing. Shop the Play collection here. My favourite room, the lounge room in The Main House. An entire wall full of books. My kinda heaven. A Look back on: the most memorable moments Shooting our new cotton bedding range After getting requests on the daily for us to stock cotton bedding, we finally pulled through with the goods! We shot the Play cotton sleep range in The Garden Loft and this was such a proud moment for us. The patterns are eminently unique and seeing them styled on real life beds was so inspiring.

Me contemplating staying in this robe for the remainder of the shoot. Colour for daysss. Deb getting roped into some Insta stories by Bonnie (there's no escaping our Content Creator). Shop Play here. But it wasn’t all sunshine and butterflies (in fact there was pretty much zilch sunshine). Day two we had a (major) hiccup *cue dramatic music*. Our wonderful stylist, Heather Nette King fell sick and had to head home to Melbourne. Thankfully our team of legends stepped in and saved the day! Special mention to Emma (our Textile Designer) and Erin (our General Manager) who swiftly put their styling hats on day two and carried out styling the rest of the Play shoot. And so for the next 7 days? The styling was up to us. Incredibly proud of our #dreamteam for pulling this off. A pretty mess... piles of rainbow coloured product everywhere. Shop cushions here. Our glorious new resin range. The (not so) effortless crumpled linen Being the carefree goddess that Fleur is? She wouldn’t dream of ironing her bed linen! Hell no! …………..So then it was decided. For this shoot, we wanted to achieve the look of freshly-washed-crumpled-linen sheets. And the only way to actually achieve that folks? Was to do it. Ha ha ha…HALP! 13 linen patterns = a lot of washing. Our Wholesale Account Manager Nadia AKA: #TheWonderWoman (who’s the only person in the world I know that actually enjoys washing) put her hand up for this job. Nadia spent hourssss at the Daylesford laundromat perfecting the crumpled linen look. And perfect it she did. Once it had all dried, she carefully sprawled the sheets around the house so it wouldn’t lose its beauty. Nadia diligently guarded the linen so not a mere crinkle would be lost. A round of applause of this legend! Apologies to anyone that wanted to use the Daylesford laundromat that day. It was a bed linen emergency. The precious post-washed crumpled linen... ain't it beautiful? Shop the sleep range here. Our first model on a lifestyle shoot! I couldn’t not mention the wonderful Hannah who played the role of sweet Fleur on this shoot. Being over the half way mark of my pregnancy… I was thanking my lucky stars for this gem stepping in. Geeee it was nice to sit back and observe instead of be in front of the camera for once. Y'know those people that are just calming to be around? That was Hannah. As soon as we met Hannah, it felt like we’d known her for years. The fabulous Hannah and the makeup master Mel on the tools again! Fleur, OOPS, I mean Hannah, soaking up some rare winter sun on the front porch. Featured: Ripley Long Sleeve Mini Dress. Breakfast of champions! Shop the full dine range here. Emma just killing the styling duties at her very first Sage x Clare shoot! Shop cushions here. One of my fave scenes! Shop the bathe range here. Food, food, food Ok when I say the food on this shoot was *magnificent*. I AM NOT EXAGGERATING! We ate like kings. Our customer service guru Elliane (a former Chef) pulled some strings for us and got her friend to cater our lunches for the week. I didn’t know that kind of flavour and freshness was possible?! Curries, soups, lasagne, pasta, salads, breads and more. Mmmmm take me back. And we were oh-so lucky to have Elliane on dinner catering. She also supplied fresh batches of homemade slices for dessert/snacks. You have not lived until you’ve tried her famous caramel slice. Bravo bravo Elliane… what did we ever do without you? Explore our dine range here. A visit from the fam-bam Now it wouldn’t be a Sage x Clare shoot without a visit from the fam would it? Chris, Macca, Jem, Nelly, baby Sully, Heidi and Jude ventured down for a night to shoot the kids + baby range. I have to say, they’re really getting good at this whole modelling thing. In fact I think I could even go as far as saying they enjoyed it? There were collective “awwwwws” echoing throughout the room the entire day. Especially when little Sully made his debut! Matching hair, matching tracksuits, the ca-utest Mother/Daughter moment right here... this photo is going straight to the pool room. Shop these sweats here. Bedhead: The Cullin Design. Sully's first Sage x Clare photoshoot! My adorable nephew. Heidi coming down from her sugar high. Bribery is always needed on these shoots (totally worth it though).

A Stylists Guide To Creating The Anabelle Look - By Heather Nette King. Being asked to style the imagery for your favourite homewares brand is, I’m not going to lie, a massive thrill. And to be asked to do it for a third season in a row – eep – I was utterly chuffed. It’s such an incredibly fun process from the start, and it encompasses so many elements of photographic styling that I thought I’d write this little journal piece to describe our process and include loads of styling tips and tricks to help you recreate the Anabelle look in your own home. The styling stage usually starts about one month before we pack our vans for the shoot, when I visit the gorgeous Sage x Clare HQ in Bayswater, VIC to view the new range and to hear about the inspiration and influences behind the prints, patterns and pieces. Because there are always soooo many beautiful new pieces, it could be easy to get overwhelmed, but once you see them all (and start breathing again) you realise just how cleverly each collection is put together… but also how each collection draws on previous ones, so that you can seamlessly add new pieces to your existing Sage x Clare loot at home. Shoot prep at Sage x Clare HQ. HEARING THE TALE OF ANABELLE First up, Sage x Clare’s founder, Phoebe tells the tale of her inspiration for the shoot. With Anabelle, she took us on a journey back through some of the most visually exciting times in recent history. She looked to the multi-layered chic of rural European estates – you know the ones – where every room, big and small, features a confident, un-self-conscious and unpretentious gathering of pieces gathered over the years: from family pieces, to some mid 20th century vibes and even some curvalicious seventies sofas. On top of this, imagine floral prints in both large and small scale, checks, swirls, pin-stripes and fabrics in a myriad of textures. It’s an enchanting, bohemian land of flowers, books, cakes and endless cups of tea – and I fell in love with it hook, line and sinker. Featured: Cordelia Linen Quilt Cover, Mim Moon Robe, Danna Cotton Leggings, Mila Woven Cushion - lagoon. STYLING TAKE HOME TIP: Dare to daydream. What are your favourite go-to eras in history, or your holidays, or books, or films? Think about how they make you feel, and isolate the bits that linger in your memory, and have the confidence to add a little of that emotional decorating to your own home. You will notice it, and I guarantee your family and friends will too. BED MAKING MAGIC I think we decided on making about 15 beds for the Anabelle shoot (maybe it was more or less – that’s where the incredibly lovely and wildly efficient Erin keeps us on track with her master lists. We would all be lost without Erin!). The trick with mixing and matching so many beautiful pieces is that if you don’t have a plan, you could end up with a load of photos that look quite similar - very beautiful, but still quite similar. So, to avoid this we start with a rule that for each quilt cover we shoot, there must be a Euro pillowcase in the same design. From there we build different stories, to create some beds that are bolder in pattern, and colour, some that are a little gentler, some that are more feminine, some more gender neutral, etc. Some will appeal to lovers of blue, or brown, others to mauve and purple girls like me. This involves a load of floorspace being covered with heaps of samples, and we mix and match until we feel we have nailed the right balance. Featured: Constance Linen Pillowcase Set. Featured: Loulou Linen Quilt Cover, Hadley Linen Flat Sheet - wheat, Ande Tufted Cushion. STYLING TAKE HOME TIP: Think about using the rule above to create a certain dominant starting point for your bed.That way, when you add more colour and pattern, the look will still feel cohesive and strong. CUSHION WORK, CUSHION MANAGEMENT, CUSHIONRY, CUSHIONAGE Featured: Mila Woven Cushion - boysenberry, Odie Velvet Cushion and our resin range. We have a lot of creative words for it – that final stage of adding to the beds (and the sofas and chairs) with Sage x Clare’s mind-bogglingly beautiful collection of cushions. It’s something that I like to leave until we are on set, with the bed partially made with the sheets, quilt cover and pillowcases. I love to draw on other elements of the room before adding these final touches. Sometimes the rooms will be a little darker and moodier, and I like to roll with that by choosing cushions that will add to the drama a little. Sometimes there will be a big whopping camelia bush outside the window, or a terrific blue sky, or you’ve just bought home a bunch of yellow daffodils from the market. When you look to the surrounding environment and take inspiration from it before adding the final touches, the bed, and the room, will come together so beautifully. Some flowers we prepared earlier and the rain that never stopped. Featured: Cordelia Linen Flat Sheet, Mila Woven Cushion, Harriet Punch Needle Cushion. Featured: Loulou linen, Ezra Woven Wall Hanging. Featured: Maeve Beni Rug, Casper Patch Bedcover, Ezra Woven Wall Hanging. STYLING TAKE HOME TIP: Look around to the rug, the curtains, the view from your window, the books on your shelf, and draw on those colours when selecting the cushions for your bed. It’s a superb way of creating a colourful, yet nuanced bedroom scene. Your eyes will notice the little colour links everywhere and thank you for the beauty. This is also a great way to make sure your bed itself doesn’t fall into the trap of looking stiff, and too matchy-matchy. FINDING THE PERFECT PROPS TO CREATE ANABELLE’S HOME When I leave the Sage x Clare HQ after learning about the new range, my head is usually spinning, the adrenalin is running high and I usually have a massive urge to head straight out and secure a few props (just so I can breathe again). My starting point for propping is the tale and, of course, the prints. Jemma’s exquisite print designs are whirling through my head, and I try to take a mental snapshot of the new colours so my propping antenna is super-tuned. Sometimes I will head straight to my usual haunts on the way home, Hunted Vintage in Bayswater, and Waverley Antique Bazaar. Propping is a funny pursuit. Sometimes you’ll be attracted to the most random things (90-year-old concrete frog, anyone? 1950’s plastic shop flowers?). I’ve learnt over the years to trust my instincts, and to always throw in a few kooky pieces. Hell, some are even borderline weird, but given the right context, they might just be the thing that takes an image from lovely, to incredible. It’s all in the balance, and practice makes perfect. A look inside my bedroom pre Anabelle shoot. For the Anabelle propping, I had a bit of an advantage – well two actually. They are my two Aladdin’s cave storage cages. I have collected old floral china and plates and platters and vases for years. I am a hopeless romantic and can’t leave an op shop empty handed. So, a quick trip to Moorroom in Carnegie to load the car before the shoot had us sorted. Featured: our three new oven mitts. Shop the complete 'Dine' range here. STYLING TAKE HOME TIP: If you love vintage, shop hard and shop often. I have loads of people say to me that they never find anything good in op shops or vintage stores. There is a bit of luck involved, but if you do it weekly instead of monthly, your chances are greatly improved. Also, if you love something, no matter the reason, be it nostalgia, the colour, the humour – go with it. It’s what makes you you, and your home, yours. CREATING THE ANABELLE SETS Having a stunning location in which to create the sets is the biggest advantage as the bones for each shot are there. A mix of large and cosy rooms with pretty leadlight windows, high ceilings, a garden outlook – these are the perfect base and The Oxford House in Hepburn Springs had them in abundance. It also had a large number of superb bathrooms – each with incredible tiles on the floor and vivid cabinetry. An enchanting garden also helped, but unfortunately the weather had other plans and we didn’t get to shoot much out-of-doors, but them’s the breaks and we just applied our imagination to the indoors instead. Featured: Anabelle Tula Nudie Bath Mat, Lucille Cosmetic Bag Featured: Arden Floral Robe, Taffy nudie towels. After emptying each of the rooms of their existing furniture we bought in the beds and other furniture pieces sourced from Sage x Clare fabulous shoot partners like Vintage Posters Only, House of Orange, Nord Modern, Lights Lights Lights, Curated Spaces and Heatherly Design Bedheads. We lay the super soft, sink-your-toes-into Sage x Clare rugs and as soon as they are in place, it’s then time for my favourite part of being a stylist – that is the creation of the make-believe of the set. This is where I get into Anabelle’s head and heart and start to layer with art (modern and vintage, large and small, prints and graphics, etc), flowers (as many as I have vases for), and the other props gathered for the shoot. Thankfully Anabelle is a complete maximalist, so less was definitely not more and we kept layering and layering until we felt the balance was right. I always aim to create sets that support the product rather than overpower it, or worse, underwhelm it, and sometimes it isn’t until you look at it on screen that you know you have got it right. So, once I have ‘roughed-in’ the sets, I let them settle until the incredible Armelle comes in with her eye for an angle and vibrant shooting style. We play around for a little longer, pow-wow as a group to make sure everyone is happy, then we break our hearts a little and we tear everything out of this make-believe land we have created, and we move onto the next shot. It’s bittersweet with every single shot. Featured: Liya Jacquard Robe, Beckett Linen Flat Sheet, Bexley Woven Cushion Featured: Lyric Beni Rug, Dora Tufted Blanket, cushions. Featured: Cordelia Linen Fitted Sheet, Myra Woven Cushion, Kittie Linen Flat Sheet STYLING TAKE HOME TIP: To create the multi-layered look of Anabelle in your own home, the best trick is to keep adding and adding the pieces that appeal to you and keep taking a step back to observe the balance of the room. Is there too much near one wall, and the other wall is bare? Address the imbalance. Is it feeling too cluttered? Leave some space between your objects rather than lining things up like ducks in a row. Give your eyes a chance to rest a little in between taking in each layer of beauty. As with all styling, the more you practice it, the easier it will come to you, and the more enjoyment you will get from creating your own perfectly curated haven in your own home. x hnk x
