I'm Miriam, a colour consultant by trade, colour lover at heart. I'm back with Colour Class no. 2 with some options of how to style colour with the newly released Berry range of lockers. If you read the 1st colour class blog (read here) we styled the new Ocean locker with inspiration from the earthy and calm ‘Repair’ colour palette from Dulux's 2019 colour forecast. Since you loved it so much, it makes me very excited to tell you that we are bringing you a series of Colour Classes showing you how to style EVERY colour of locker from Mustard Made with inspiration from...
I'm Miriam, a colour consultant by trade, colour lover at heart. I thought I’d start with a little bit about why I'm writing a blog post for Mustard Made. Firstly... I love this brand and I respect and admire the girls behind it so much. It doesn’t feel all that long ago that myself and Becca had our baby boys a couple of weeks apart (who are now two and a half) and were already talking about ‘what’s next’ when it's time to go back to work. I had almost completed my studies in Colour and Design and Becca was talking about designing...
I'm going to start this blog post by saying this feels a little funny to write. Why? Because the way The Midi and The Lowdown were brought into this world felt a bit more like a baby being born in the back the car on the way to hospital with heavy metal booming on the radio than a soothing water birth surrounded by candles and a chilled Spotify playlist. Let's just say, it was a little hectic. The beginning. Way back before Mustard was officially a thing we were dreaming up the two door lockers. We had so many ideas and...
Our aim for our colour palette was to create options that were versatile, beautiful and worked well for mixing and matching. Whether the lockers are for a living room, bedroom, office or hallway we wanted there to be a colour that fits with your space. White has been a popular choice in Australia, the sunshine and beach definitely have a lot to do with it as people gravitate to bright open spaces. The Olive has been a big hit on instagram and has a steady following of plant lovers, it's definitely a versatile colour that works for grown ups and...
We'd like to introduce you to Alina... We discovered Alina through her instagram account @thecalmandthechaos and instantly felt joyful and overwhelmed with admiration in equal measure! Not only does her home encapsulate the phrase "pop of colour", it also shines with love and playfulness while remaining a practical space for her 7 children to grow up in. We challenged this busy mama to style her Shorty in Mustard in three ways and love what she's done with it! Tell us a little about you… Hola! I’m Alina and I’m a large family mum to seven children. We live in sunny rural Queensland and enjoy every moment...
Here's a few little details that you may not know... 1. They are 100% magnetic! You can use magnets to stick postcards, photos and to-do lists anywhere on the locker! 2. Inside the door you have our 'Emma' hook to hang things (one in The Shorty, two in The Skinny). Perfect for a little mirror, headphones a photo frame or as our friend Emma suggested, necklaces! 3. They arrive to you flat packed. But don’t worry, we promise they are easy to put together! You can watch our how-to videos here. 4. You only need to screw in two screws for the handle, that's all, everything else...
