Allissias Attic Design Homewares Giveaway


This giveaway is sponsored by Allissias Attic Design

I was delighted when Julie contacted me to run a giveaway and promote her beautiful online store and Design service.  Julie is a little like me you see.  She began her design career buying and selling properties and completing small and extensive renovations on them. It seems we both have a passion for that kind of work.   Unfortunately for me, that's where the similarities end.  After her building and renovation experience, design became such a passion for Julie, she went on to study and complete formal qualifications in design and has been working in the industry for 15 years.




To compliment her design business, Julie has set up a stunning online store.  There is so much eye candy over there, I lost an hour browsing through all the beautiful pieces.  There is a  certain French, vintage element to the mix of furniture and homewares on offer.  So many of the pieces would be perfect for the Beach House as well.  I am currently thinking about some pendant lights over my kitchen island bench and these would be just right.

Maine Pendant Light

Whether designing new homes from scratch, renovating or just looking for a beautiful piece to complement your home, Julie's focus is on maximising enjoyment of your interior space. The priority for clients of Allissias Attic Design is to turn a client's dream for their home into a reality.


 Have a look at some of the gorgeous pieces on offer in the store.  The turquoise and black contrast in this bookcase is just so on trend right now.

I adore this embossed mirror

Here are some of the things former clients have had to say about Allissias Attic Design:

"The armoire is amazing and the signs and pewter items I purchased for Christmas gifts had the most amazing response from my family and friends. Thanks so much for rushing it all to me." _ Suzanne Parmelia WA

    I just got lost in there too Carolyn. Thats just my style. I love everything. I'm particularly loving a piece of metal teacup artwork for $79.99 (in fact I might even buy that soon) and I love the classic lines of the Luis 3 Tier Cake Stand with 'O' Ring Handle. Its a little different to the usual cake stands. Oh gosh. I could go on forever. Great stuff.
