 | Class is Brass
View Website
| There is nothing as classic in a country bedroom as a cast-iron or brass bed and the Class is Brass team are experts at creating stunning handcrafted beds.
These aren’t production-run beds. Each one is handcrafted by the dedicated Class is Brass team of tradesmen and the quality is supreme. While many bed manufacturers use imitation aluminium castings to produce their beds, Class is Brass is old-fashioned, pouring molten iron into sand moulds, a labour-intensive method that has been in use since the 1800s. |

 | Farmers
View Website
| Any good host knows that a spacious kitchen is a vital part of a successful dinner party, and the owners had this thought in mind when they planned their new kitchen. As serial entertainers, they wanted to ensure they had a spacious kitchen with superior inclusions to impress their guests. The owners called on Harrisons Joinery to head the renovation, who in turn enlisted the assistance of Farmers. With an extensive range of quality fittings, Farmers was the perfect choice to help transform the dark, 1980s-style kitchen into an executive space. |
 | Woven Wire
View Website
| No matter what your style of country home, you can enjoy the benefits of a Woven Wire fence. It can showcase any garden while letting the sun shine through, giving total air flow, which is much healthier for plants. There are few fence styles better than Woven Wire to complement a home and garden at a reasonable cost. They are easy to build and can serve equally well as a prominent front fence, a low side fence, or in the backyard to enclose vegie gardens with style. Attractive rose arbours or arched walkways can be created with Woven Wire. The anti-rust (galvanised) inner core has a baked-on coating which adheres to the wire. This coating has UV stabilisers in it to minimise fading and the coating does not crack or peel. This is a product that will truly withstand Australia’s harsh conditions over many years. Woven Wire also offers beautifully handcrafted and powder-coated gates, each personally made to order. If you're looking for the perfect fence to complement your country home, this small family business, offering personal service and Australia-wide delivery, is an excellent choice.

 | Empire Beds
View Website
| The elegant designs and classical lines of brass and iron beds have had an enduring appeal since their first large-scale production by R.W. Winfield in the 1850s. Since then, thousands of brass and iron beds have been produced in an incredible number of designs, ranging from the simple shearer's bed through to the extravagantly decorated full-canopied four-poster bed. From the humble shearer's quarters to Victorian and Edwardian cottages, terrace houses and opulent mansions, there was a brass bed for any setting. It may not be the 19th century anymore, but Empire Beds is continuing this tradition of fine bed making, supplying brass and iron beds in a range of designs and in all sizes. |
 | Calico Cottage Fudge Systems
View Website
| Located in the heritage-listed old post office building in the small village of Mogo on the beautiful south coast of New South Wales, Mogo Fudge invites you to indulge yourself with mouth-watering fudge from an amazing choice of flavours. At Mogo Fudge, Sue and Will Procter have been making delicious fresh fudge since 1995 when they began using the Calico Cottage Fudge Systems business plan. Over the years, the business has grown rapidly and now two of their sons — Ben and David — also work in the business.
Visitors to Mogo Fudge are welcome to watch fudge being made on site. They use a fudge kettle, which is basically a large mixer surrounded by a water jacket, which allows the mix to be gently heated. Although they make only four basic ingredients — chocolate, milk chocolate, vanilla and caramel — they combine the basic fudges together with other ingredients to make an amazing range of flavours. There are usually at least 30 flavours to choose from, including Bailey’s Irish Cream, Chocolate Mint Swirl, Cappuccino and Cookies & Cream. Although the famous fudge remains a major drawcard, Mogo Fudge now offers much more. There’s a fantastic choice of ice cream and in summer they make their own gelato. The new courtyard is an ideal place to sit and relax while having morning coffee, a light lunch or afternoon tea — try a gourmet pie from Hayden’s Pies or a savoury or sweet crepe. The latest attraction is hot, roasted nuts from the Nutty Bavarian. Roasted on the premises with a special cinnamon glaze, there’s a real danger you’ll find the nuts habit-forming. Mogo started life as a goldmining town during the 1850s, however the boom did not last long and Mogo gradually declined and became a sleepy backwater. In the late 1980s, Mogo became the home of a small group of craftspeople and artists, starting Mogo’s second ‘rush’. The town grew rapidly with the influx of many more craftspeople, together with antique shops, coffee shops and other attractions. Now it’s a unique shopping destination with many specialist shops you will simply not find anywhere else. Mogo Fudge is available in-store, or by mail order via their website. Calico Cottage Fudge Systems and the Nutty Bavarian offer a range of franchising opportunities across Australia and New Zealand. |
 | Antique Bed Specialists
View Website
| Visit a homemaker super centre and you’ll find a handful of bedding stores, each selling a couple of classic-style beds. There’s a bit of choice there but for the discerning country decorator who knows exactly what they want, it can be disappointing. If you have a particular style of bed in mind, and don’t mind waiting a while for your perfect bed to be hand-finished, it’s worth contacting the Antique Bed Specialists, who specialise in restoring timeworn brass, iron, cast and timber beds to their former glory. In addition to the selection ready for sale — available for viewing on their website at www.antiquebedspecialists.com.au — they have another 400 beds awaiting restoration.
They often have potential customers emailing photos of their dream bed and they then consult their collection of beds to find a perfect or near match. Then the restoration process begins, and the customer doesn’t have to compromise — they get the exact bed that will make their dream bedroom setting complete. If you’re looking for the perfect bed, look no further than Antique Bed Specialists.

 | Mulberry House
View Website
| Situated in the delightful town of Bunbury, south of Perth, you will find Mulberry House – a magnificent deference to all styles of country. Owner Christine Nichols has a wonderful eye for beautiful furniture and homewares and takes pride in filling her store with a spectacular selection of country decorator items. Whether you’re looking for a special gift or a decorator item for your own home, you’re sure to find plenty of inspiration at Mulberry House. There’s also a magnificent selection of unique furniture in store. Christine relishes the challenge of turning an old piece of furniture into a signature piece that would take pride of place in any discerning decorator’s home, and she is constantly rescuing old pieces from the scrap heap and restoring them to their former glory. All the reconditioned furniture for sale in the store are one-off pieces, restored with tender loving care by Christine herself. Christine particularly loves the ‘stressed’ look and the French influence, which is very popular at the moment. A special feature of Mulberry House is that each of the five rooms in the house are decorated in a different style of country, providing a new experience with every threshold you cross and catering to all tastes. There’s pretty country, French country, traditional country, classic country and garden country, so regardless of what style whets your appetite, it’s sure to be sated here. The welcoming, friendly nature of the shop inspires you to stay a while, which is required to truly appreciate the vast selection of products in store. Christine says, “I have always wanted a shop where people can relax and enjoy lingering for a while.” Whilst many of the locals have become friends with the store and visit regularly, visitors to the area are delighted to find Mulberry House on their travels. |
