It’s a bank holiday weekend here in the UK so no posts from me on Monday. Apparently it’s a huge DIY weekend with everyone tarting up their homes and gardens ready for summer. If like me you are painting (touching up a few rooms that are in a severe need of a repaint) then I just wanted to show you how fabulous dark rooms can look even in summer.
You just don’t get that cosy gentleman’s club feeling in a neutral space I say. Loving everything about the room below from the panels to the painting from the inky blue of the sofa to the rug. Particularly liking the idea of two sofas sitting opposite each other the question is can I relocate my george smith sofa to another floor and suggest going down this route without being murdered. Thinking probably not – so shall keep this one to myself for oh at least the weekend x
Happy weekend

It is a gorgeous room alright!Happy Bank holiday weekend and goodluck with the sofa move and best of persuasive powers to you!!!
Yes, I wouldn’t at all mind being horizontal in that room on one of those sofas with a book and those peonies just on the periphery of my vision. Cups of tea delivered at regular intervals through the afternoon, gin when the sun strikes the yard arm…
Trying to decide what colour the walls are – thinking dark wood?
Think the walls are indeed
hmmmm….light that fire, turn on the jazz, remove some books off the table, add a decanter of port & a few candles, and devour with blueberries and sexy dark chocolate….
very nice, love the wooden paneling …
You must stop apologizing for not posting. Your blog is amazing, as are you but as a newcomer to your blog, to read over and over again one apology after another gets rather tiring.
Point taken no more apologises from me x
