Bedroom 3...

WHO THOUGHT is made up from 2 separate vintage signs pieced together.

The lager letter's ( WHO ) came from a HUGE pile of letters that where sold individually and at the point of purchasing WHO...is was displayed as HOW and THOUGHT is in one piece.

I spent a good few hours cleaning them up and moving them around the house to see where they would be best suited.

I moved the W into my dressingroom 1st to see if it would fit onto the shelf!  

Then it HIT ME!!! rearrange HOW into WHO + add THOUGHT = GENIUS!!!

I needed a sit down after that! when your the mental age of 8 year old something can be a little DIFFICULT!!!

More glass jars as i used my other glass jars in the en-suite, I'm still looking out for something to fill them.

Reception 1...

Our wheat sheaf wall lights have now made it onto the walls within reception 1.

I found them in a BIG heap crap! Price tag £40 = BARGAIN!

The previous owners had gone to great lengths and had given them a paint job of red, white and blue = FAIL!

Hall...

Apologies yet again for the lack of updates! Super busy with one or another - ANYWHO!!!...I spent my 1st real day off in weeks taking pictures of the house yesterday and pulling together some updates for you.

So here we go...

We finally got around to having the ceiling under the staircase painted Farrow and Ball Pitch Black with an egg shell finish...

Click here for images of how the staircase looked before it was painted black!

Its taken a few days to get use to, its had a HUGE impact on the light! BUT - I LOVE IT!!! It's done what I wanted, which was to high light the shape of the staircase and painting it in the same finish has made it look seamless...if that makes any sense!

Click here to see how the Hall has evolved over the past months!

We also have a NEW addition to the hall, which is this industrial warehouse window! Mirror is added to where the glass use to be.
