Piccolo Studio in your room - Miss Asha

This adorable room belongs to Miss Asha, who is eight months old and resides in the seaside suburb of Torquay in Victoria. This beach babe happens to be the little girl of my very talented cousin Mel. 

I never doubted that Asha’s room would be anything short of gorgeous, as Melissa is an Interior Designer. 

Mel has worked in Interior Design for large firms and has been involved on projects including a Dubai shopping centre, ‘Luxury Collection' hotel in China, luxury penthouse apartments in Dubai and ‘The Grand Hyatt’ hotel in Sydney just to name a few.  She has also worked on smaller scale residential projects for architects and builders on the Bellarine Peninsular in Victoria as well as inner city Melbourne.  

Since having Asha, Mel has left her full time job to concentrate on being a mummy.  Being so creative and hands on, she has recently started a business that allows her to work flexible hours from home.

Merry and Tell is where Melissa creates beautiful bespoke pieces for baby and for home.  Her latest products are beautifully sewn and quilted organic cotton dual-purpose baby blankets/play mats.  The range includes soon to be released hand picked fabrics in gorgeous prints and colours.

I love that Asha's room includes an eclectic mix of designer pieces, hand made items as well as pre loved.  Asha is fortunate to have some older cousins that gave her a simple white cot and change table to use, which made for a good starting point in decorating the room.  A comfortable replica Eames rocker compliments the white furniture perfectly as does her timber floor lamp.

Asha’s room is filled with a myriad of treasures made by her mummy, including the beautiful fabric hanging garland, the neon pink macramé plant hanger, the pompom garland that hangs on the wall behind Asha’s cot as well as some Merry and Tell art works that feature on her book shelves.

Asha’s room also features some Piccolo Studio.  She has a personalised alphabet on chalk print and Mel has framed one of my cards with the word ‘hola’ and little rain clouds.  The colour is perfect for the theme and has been beautifully accessorised with some colourful geometric shaped planters.
