I found this book at the library last week. It's called ETCETERA and it's by Sibella Court, an Australian stylist and designer. Each page is crammed full of lists, colours and ideas for collecting things you love and displaying them in your home. It's not so much about buying designer goods or expensive stuff, but rather about becoming a curator of the things you like and find along your journey in life. The ideas are fairly simple yet, I think, poetic. Pinning ornate paper to the walls with thumbtacks, wrapping jars and bottles in brown paper with typed labels, hanging your favourite clothes as artwork, framing insects and shells in tiny decorated matchboxes or test-tubes, to name a few. There are also stacks of colourful textiles from Uzbekistan, Japan and Morocco. All of it is gorgeous and has me wanting to renew my passport- I recommend a look if you can find a copy!
