Laura Pennington, of Bella Casa Homes will work with you to ensure your event, home, photo shoot, holiday rental or business holds a look to ensure maximum impact is achieved. Laura Pennington is an Interior Stylist who also holds a Social Sciences Degree. A passion in interiors stems from a family backdrop of Events, Landscape design, Floristry, Art, Renovations, Styling for photo/magazine shoots and Property Styling. Combining passion for aesthetics with the background in studying people, enables spaces to be interpreted. Laura established a successful property styling business, based in Sydney. This business involved all aspects of preparing homes for sale. Event styling was a natural progression, with growing demand for party styling and decor, growing in this region. After nearly 20 years on the beautiful Northern Beaches of Sydney, Laura moved with her family to a 100 acre property in a place called Firefly, on the Mid North Coast of NSW. This has created wide range opportunities for an interior stylist. These include: dressing the local Dyers Crossing church for a wedding, creating Christmas artwork for the local Greenhouse Caf� in Nabiac, photo shoot styling for Magnolia Tea House, makeover and management of a Farm-stay, wedding and event styling, including several themed balls and events in Nabiac, which were a resounding success. A major accomplishment for the family has been building their own home together and establishing a farm. The house, which holds relaxed, Australian eclectic appeal, has been recently featured in Country Home Ideas Magazine. From farmhouse to holiday house, living 25 minutes from the beautiful coastline near Forster enables styling of holiday homes and beach houses, including Blackhead Beach to Bluey's Beach.
