Why we need some calm in the bedroom!


Creating the right sleep ennvironment means more than just closing the door and turning of the lights.
Have you ever wandered into your bedroom and just sat down and taken in the peaceful feel or are you missing that one important part..Zen calmness.
I have a bedroom that has a large window looking out over the tree tops that catches the afternoon sun. Everyone in the family knows that if they cant find me on a weekend afternoon I will be there curled up on my couch soaking in the sun and peace, book in hand loving my room!
Your bedroom needs to be your haven day and night. You need to surround yourself in colours that soothe the soul, fabrics that are soft and enticing, and quilts that are the right weight..not too hot or not too cool.
It is not a hard thing to acheive when you set out to find one thing at a time and when acheived move on to the next.
The colours that inspire you during the day are not the ones to sleep under as you wont be drawn to sleep!
Look for soft soothing lines of beige, blues, white and yes black! Our Coshee bamboo range covers all of these and ou can always "dress" a bed with coloured cushions..you know the ones that husbands dislike that end up on the floor every night and need to be put back in the right way each morning!
Have soft lighting when you have stopped reading and listen to the peacful night sounds if you can or have a soothing tape to help you.
Dont have the heating on but allow the house to slowly cool down and your bedlinen keep you warm.
Mulberry Silk quilts adjust to your body heat and allow this to happen naturally.
Remember this place is YOUR haven..enjoy the surrounds and pick items that you like when you can and you will build a soothing bedroom quicker than you think!

Mid Year Mayhem

Mid Year Mayhem..
Well it is mid year again and here we are with our skates on getting ready for four massive shows over July and August both here and offshore!
We pull our hair out but we secretly love the hype as we get to chat to so many different groups and meet some wonderful people!
Our first show of the rank is the amazing:
Furnitex..Decoration and Design in Melbourne at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre July 21-24 Stand AH40
We are looking forward to showcasing our beautiful Desert Red bamboo Coshee set as above at this venue.
Our second event is:
Gift and Homewares Trade event at Meblourne Showgrounds August 6-10 and we are in the Grand Pavillion stand G2705.
This is our second show and we love the surrounds as it gives us a chance to show both our natural cottons for children and bamboo for adults.
Our third event is dear to our hearts as we launched into Melbourne for the first time here in 2009..How time flies!
Melbourne Herald Home Show August 18-21 at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre.
We love chatting to our very first customers as they still come back to say hi and sometimes show us pics of "where their Coshee is now"
Our fourth show is trans-atlantic and an exciting event as we are here for the second year but with a twist!
Spring Gift and Homewares Fair Auckland ASB Showgrounds Greenlane West Stand 7053 Aug 21-23
This is a beautiful show that showcases some wonderful products from New Zealand, Australia and overseas. We are excited to be introducing our exclusive New Zealand agent at this show Sharon de Heer from The Haven and we will be supporting Sharon at this event as she supplies her clients with our Coshee cotton and bamboo cotton quilt cover sets and also our Mulberry Silk Quilts.
So the skates are on and we hope to say Hi to as many of you as possible!
"love the environment you sleep in"

Mulberry Silk Quilts


As winter is upon us we need to think about staying warm at night and what better way to do this then under a Mulberry Silk Quilt.
We manufacture our own quilts to suit Aussie sizes and standards but best of all this is the creme de la creme of quilts if you are after top end luxury.
Our silk is AAA long strand Mulberry silk encased in a 300 thread count cotton which has an aloe vera natural coating to ensure no liquids can ruin your inner silk or discolour your cover.
We offer two weights a Summer or Winter to suit your individual needs.
I personally recommend Winter for our colder months and Summer when it is warmer rather than using winter all year round.
Once used you will find it hard to go back to anything else and did I tell you they are hypo-allergenic and dust mite resistant! So for allergy sufferers embrace and enjoy a beautiful allergy free nights sleep!
Stay warm under our soft and luxurious Mulberry silk quilts/duvets
