As many of you are aware, Ambi Pur Home Fragrance sponsored one of the eight houses at Designers on Display at Kindlewood Estate 2009.

The house was exquisitely decorated by M&M Designs and filmed for a series of programmes on the Home Channel as well as forming part of a national road show. Please click here to view programme.

The décor, which was inspired by Ambi Pur’s range of fragrances took top honours at The Homemakers Fair Gauteng 2010 where they won a Gold Award and at Decorex Johannesburg 2009, where they won 'Best Stand' for the loft that was originally part of the Ambi Pur sponsored house at Designers on Display in May 2009.

Congratulations to all involved.

A fantastic cast of professionals brings some much needed local content to South African screens. This décor and gardening TV programme will showcase some of South Africa’s most stylish and unique homes and gardens and provide a fresh slant on South African lifestyle.

20 years after dropping out of a fine art degree, I am planning my first art exhibition!

My first collection is a series on birds, bathers and botanical drawings of Proteas, Aloes and Pincushions in ink pen, watercolor and brown charcoal.

I have a busy life with 3 children and am also impatient, so I like to work very quickly and spontaneously. I hope that this translates into fresh and uncontrived work!

Details for Exhibition:

Marjorie Jones ceramic collection is hot out of the Kiln!! Her ceramic work yet again takes on a new dimension.

“Some of her ceramic masks adorn heavily tattooed faces, carved and decorated with colour “

Marjorie’s venturesome spirit is clearly exhibited through her diverse collection of artworks she creates, from wood and ceramic sculpture, acrylic on canvas, monoprints and wall hangings consisting of a rich mixture of sisal, natural wool and clay

Marjorie will be hosting an Open Weekend on 29 & 30 May 2010
