Several months ago the lovely Angela Steyn of
Wicker & Stitch contacted me regarding writing an article about The Brown Trading Co for
Home Beautiful Magazine. I was so thrilled! The August issue is out now and the article Angela wrote is wonderful (thank you so much Angela). The whole process was so much fun and every single person I came in contact with at Home Beautiful was just delightful. So here it is.....

What I am also loving about this issue is the purple cover! Like most little girls I loved pink and still do but I have always had a soft spot for purple too. It's a very under rated colour and I believe it should be given much more credit. Our Bungalow collection features some stunning purples in cushions and quilts.
Clearly we are on to something with purple because even the gorgeous Kate Middleton was recently seen frocking up in Canada in purple!

And how fabulous is this chair in a rich purple velvet?
And who doesn't love purple Hydrangeas?
Here in Brisbane come November this is what we see, masses and masses, street upon street of perfectly pretty Jacaranda trees.

Think shades of amethyst, eggplant, plum, violet and wine. Purple is associated with luxury, royalty and spirituality and can boost imagination and creativity. I think it's high time purple was given some street cred. Thanks again
Home Beautiful for the lovely article on us and the wonderful splash of purple.
