I've moved the Chesterfield sofa into the 3rd reception room. My intentions were to have it in this room when purchasing it...LOVE it up against the dark grey walls! ( Farrow and ball Down pipe )

I'm NOW on the look out for a consul table which will sit just be-hide it + hang one of our Geoff Keen paintings on the wall above.

Also on me list....ceiling light + rug + coffee table + sofa/2 lounge chairs + mirrors + cushions + lamps!!!

I've also unpacked some of our artwork + moved the floor lamp from reception 2...this is only temporary until i've purchased things from my list to replace.

The GAINT drift wood urns/vases that we purchased from the Newark antiques fair have been delivered....I'm thinking that I may turn them into floor lamps? 

My NEW/old table...
