New
Home fragrance collection.
                                                           

We are excited to announce the arrival next week of the gorgeous Peppermint Grove candles and fragrances.

Handmade in the exquisite Southern highlands of New South Wales, Australia.
This stunning range is inspired by the opulence of grand old estates, stunning private gardens & heirloom antiques. Peppermint Grove brings luxury and timeless sophistication to modern day contemporary living.



The range captures the charm of Australian living. Each fragrance has been carefully created to encapsulate a unique part of its countries landscape. 

The luxurious collection of candles, diffusers and hand and body products are hand poured in a highly polished custom designed vessel that is unique to the Peppermint Grove brand. They strive to offer only the highest quality products, sourced in a sustainable and environmentally friendly manner to produce a collection of sophistication and timeless fragrances.



The candles are made from natural soy wax and have lead free cotton wicks for a longer and cleaner burn. Each diffuser is hand poured in a custom designed, highly polished glass that can be re used for a multitude of purposes around the home. Each candle comes with  a custom designed  silver lid that also acts as a protective coaster for the candle to sit on.  When lit, the candle flame shines through the bevels in the glass and reflects off the silver lid, producing a beautiful light around the room.
                                                


All bath and body products have been enriched with nourishing almond, argan, roshehip and jojoba oils which will leave skin delightfully clean,nourished and wonderfully fragrant. The hand creams contain spf 15+ for added sun protection and anti aging benefits. The pump bottles are a custom designed hard plastic that looks and feels like glass, but is far safer for  use in bathrooms and kitchens. We will also be selling the lovely gift bags, which contain a hand cream in a tube, the beautifully fragranced beauty bar, a candle and a exfoliating loofah. All presented in a  gorgeous zipped bag, useful for travel, or for your makeup, once finished with. 

                                                         



Peppercorn House are proud to be the new stockists of Peppermint Grove in your area. Come along to see the wonderful collection, soon to be on display and for sale in our shop next week!!

Hand painted kitchens

To paint or not to paint?

Hand painted kitchens have become extremely popular in the interiors world as they create something different and increase light as well as introducing a little touch of modern!

The price tag that comes with these bespoke painted kitchens can also mean a re mortgage to get the look you have been longing for.

I have been hand painting kitchens at Peppercorn House now for over 4 years and the transformation is breathtaking, and at a fraction of the cost, easier on your bank balance.

Its hard work and a long process.  Getting the preparation right and  choosing the right colour to enhance your space, is so important. We do a consultation on site with the customer to determine what they are wanting to achieve.

The majority of work is done in our workshop, but there is a certain amount that will need to be done on site.

So if you are fed up with the look of your kitchen, want a change but don't want to spend a small fortune then maybe this is something to seriously think about.

Here are a couple of transformations from Peppercorn House to give you an idea of how different a room can look with the right colour choice and expertise.







This was a recent kitchen I hand painted in Autentico antique white in the eggshell finish. It is a beautiful farm house kitchen which now reflects much more light and does not look so dated. Everything else stayed the same, just painted the units. Love it!!

The kitchen below was in a Georgian property and when the owners moved in they felt the black kitchen was too much. We went for a light soft green colour, by Autentico in surrey hills. Even though they had a lot of light from the large windows, the dark colour made it too dull. Choosing a lighter colour created more light and enhanced the space.







You can go as far as just painting units, or you can change the handles, workshops and wall/tile colours, but it definitely pays to update and have your kitchen hand painted by an expert, saving you a huge amount of money in the process!
