Good things...


I probably love too many colours to do an all white (in its various shades) decor scheme in my own home. I do, however, appreciate white done right...and thanks to my Australian friend, Jennifer of Whiteport, those who decorate on the lighter side have a wonderful new source from which to add to their own collections. From the beautiful bedding, towels, dishware, rattan, to the lovely candles and storage solutions, Whiteport is a serene place to peruse and shop. Check them out!!


According to their website: Whiteport was founded by Jennifer McCabe in 2007. A Sydney girl who lived in London for six years, Jennifer returned home to find an overwhelming absence of quality Australian homewares stores offering online shopping. "While Londoners are spoilt for choice when it comes to online shopping, there were few options here that offered beautiful homewares, delivered to your door, hassle free,” says Jennifer. “We’re all busy working and raising families, so why not make buying gifts and homewares easier?”
So she started Whiteport, an online store offering an extensive range of home decor, gifts and accessories, themed around a stylish white palette. Why white? Because Jennifer feels the Australian landscape lends itself perfectly to white’s simplicity and purity. “Our products look equally good in a city loft apartment or a sprawling beach house,” she says. "White products are simple, timeless and complement any colour scheme.”
