New Pictures

If you're anything like me then you'll like having a good nosey around someone's house. I mentioned a while ago that after decorating the snug I'd upload some pics of the new sofas, and even further before that months ago, I said I'd show you the kitchen with a few extra pieces.

As always there still remain other things that need to be perfected but I have some pictures of the sofas in their new room, and a few little accessories that I've added to the kitchen. 

(Someone slap my wrists for taking so long)

I'm currently looking for a black and white print to place above the sofa.

As well as finding a picture for the wall the room also needs some new curtains. Any suggestions?

In the kitchen I've added a set of love heart hooks for the oven gloves and tea towels.

I also found this marmite print on the internet, that I fell in love with. It comes in a range of different retro colours but this one is the best (I think)...

Watch the World go by

Window seats first came about in the late 1700's, here in England. In those days they were simply a hard, uncomfortable sofa without a back, a million miles away from the images that I conjure up of window seats now.

I find something honest and romantic about window seats. They are the perfect place to sit and ponder; to cuddle up and fall asleep in the sun; or relax and watch the world go by.

If you have a bare bay window or any little nooks in the house that you don't know what to do with adding a window seat can frame the window, or room. 

Having sat on a few window seats in my time I know how frustrating it can be when the cushions slip off. To tackle this issue, staple a few strips of Velcro to the base and stitch the contrasting strips to the cushion. This should save your bottom from any bumps on the floor.
