Armchair envy….

Husband has sat in the chair virtually all weekend watching football, cricket, 
rugby and the only reason I am not moaning is because 
Chelsea won 6-0 so all is good!!!

But he is moaning about his armchair so I have taken it upon 
myself to find some new ones for the new abode….

So here we go…. expensive but divine as is anything by Amy Somerville!!

So here we devote our blog today to her fabulous designs!!! Love them!!!

And a Happy St Patrick's Day to you all …. let's celebrate all things green….!!

Happy St Patrick's Day one and all!  Not only is it a day for celebrating all things green, it's my nephew's birthday and he's finally 13!! 

Does seem to have taken an awfully long time to get there!!!

Ok this one isn't for everyone but would like this maybe for a panic room, if you must!!!


ok this is a little OTT but it is calm and cool at the same time…


My new house doesn't have a garden… so this idea of creating an outdoor wall inside 
gives me the feeling of perhaps some outside space….




Or I just blow this up, put on my wall by my back door and pretend this is
my garden…actually I might do that…. but I do have window boxes!!!


Happy St Patrick's Day to you all!

Fog on the Thames… Fog on the Thames….

Ok, wrong part of country but just about sums it up!!

So in order to brighten your foggy haze here are some wonderful things of beauty!!

Love the simplicity of this desk from Loaf!!



Mother's Day is looming and I would love this from Bloom - take heed teenager!!


A candle to remind me of Hotel Costes - highly recommend Room 502….


And I LOVE this cute 2 seater Harry Sofa from Ligne Roset…

and talking of Harry, Happy Birthday Harry… finally a teenager!!!

The Finer Things in Life...

In the inimitable words of Noel Gallagher (or was it Liam) , 'Some Might Say….'
that there are indeed no finer things in life than the following:

(well that's according to me right now..)

Melrose and Morgan, Primrose Hill and their dark
chocolate honeycomb…OMG…

Ok this one's a bit techy but brilliant as an app…
the iHandy Carpenter…


What does it do?  From measuring, to levelling, Carpenter provides you with every tool you'll ever need.  A simple yet really very handy app and a lot easier than lugging a spirit level around!!!



Ok this is odd choice again but beautiful….The Alba Chair from Porada..


but I would have to have a groovier cushion cover…

And finally to my favourite restaurant of all time….Assaggi - well almost…
and clearly helped by having the wonderful Pietro to serve you…


Fresh crab…. grilled seabass… another OMG….
