Reception 1 to do list...

I cant stop feeling like everything I'm doing is WRONG and I'm making too many mistakes, I haven't a Fluffing clue what I'm doing or where I'm going!!!

I'm not one of those interior designer folk that live and breath all of this...

( HUGE LIE - IT'S ALL CONSUMING )

There are only two areas in the house that I really like...My dressing room and Home Office, Is this because they look more finished than everywhere else?

I know this is a process I've got to get through...BUT - I'm SO over it at the moment!


Anyway - Because of how I'm feeling about things, I made a few purchases over the weekend to see if its going to help me get out this frame of mind and have pulled together some sort of TO DO LIST!

On my Reception 1 to do list...

1 - Re paint ceiling in Farrow & Ball Off black instead of the Pitch black we already have.


2 - Keep All White Farrow and Ball on walls and floor just freshen up.


3 - Ive just purchased this floor cushion in a petrol blue, medium in size as this room is crying out for texture among other stuff!


4 - Remove pineapple based lamp from the hospital trolly and replace with NEW lamp ( image below ).



5 - Also purchased at the weekend 2 of these jugs ( image below ) I'm thinking on slate hearth!



6 - Another one of these floor cushions ( image below ) in purple to sit next the arm chair within the bay window.



7 - I've asked Martin to remove this door and shelve this wall...from top to bottom and up and over the door frame.

I'm planing on painting the shelves in Farrow and Ball Down pipe ( images below ).




8 - Replace concrete based lamp on table with the other NEW lamp ( image below ) Planter needed for Fiddle leaf + the addition of the chair in the last image which was again purchased at the weekend.



Even though all of this is in the pipe line...I bet you, when all of this is done and dusted! 

It will only shine a light on 10 other things that need to be addressed!

Reception 1...


I ended up having a HUGE DRAMA with the courier company yesterday! 

BUT - I did eventually receive my mirrors and they made it up North in one piece, which is a good thing as my head was in bits...

I didn't realise how GHETTO I am!!!


Anyway - The mirrors are 100cm in diamamter and have a cast iron frame with antique mirror inserts, they only just fit.


Ignore the SATAN box! Hate them...they is TOO UGLY! 


There is still SO much I want to do to this room, I haven't really got started on it yet.


AND - is that a FIDDLE LEAF FIG???


I think it is!!! 


AND - for those of you who use GOOGLE READER...his will no longer be available after the 1st of July!

SO - If my miss use of grammar, terrible spelling and shocking photography hasn't put you off!

Reception 1...


I saw this pair of mirrors the other week and have been stalking them daily, But - haven't got around to doing anything about it. 

1 - TOO busy. 2 - They're in London. 3 - Just too LAZY!!!

( Another...BUT! but a big one...)

BUT - The 2 Fiddle leaf Fig trees that I ordered from Holland have just touched down in London and need collecting ASAP.

SO - I'm planning on killing 2 birds with one stone. 


I'm going to be selling my FABULOUS wheat sheaf wall lights online @ www.47parkavenue.co.uk

( Launching very soon! )

And - The reason Ive decided to sell them, is because of this image below...

Reception 1...


We've just picked up another 2 other pieces of artwork. Both pieces are by artists very local to the area.


I LOVE this piece SO much...I contacted the artist and arranged a meet so - that I could inform her of what we are doing here at www.47parkavenue.co.uk 


Helen's artwork will be available to buy online @ www.47parkavenue.co.uk 



Helen cuts and folds paper into different size bufferfly's...for a piece this size that process takes 3 full days, Helen then stitches with a needle and thread each butterfly onto paper!

Helen is in the process of making 2 pieces for the site that measure 100cmx100cm! 

 I CANT WAIT TO SEE THE END RESULTS! SO - EXCITED!
