Talking bedrooms
Sorry about the lack of post yesterday very sick thru Sunday night with no sleep and then had a day ahead of me yesterday filming. There I was on the train up north in pajamas with sick bowl to hand looking like hell. Got back late night last had a glass of orange juice and the whole thing has just happened again all thru last night so am feeling rather sorry for myself to say the least. Enough of my moaning and groaning, I am working in my studio all day so at least I don’t have to get dressed, comb my hair or talk which is a good think.
Lets talk bedrooms – I would say bedrooms are probably one of the most important rooms in the house since it’s the first thing we see when we open our eyes and the last thing we see at night (shame mine is so neglected). Its where we relax (I don’t as I hate my current one) but hopefully you are not like me and have bedooms that are true reflections of who you really are. In my new bedroom (happening the minute filming stops) I’m having a big fireplace (obviously) a clubby old chair to read novels in when I want to escape. There are quite a few of us working from home now it’s a hive of activity Atelier HQ so I’m fancying a room with a door I can close. Also want a huge chandelier crafted from mud no less, a panelled false wall which doubles as a walk in wardrobe, bed linen from Merci and a big slubby merino wall throw. Wall lights , oodles of flowers and way hey think I might never leave. That’s my current wish, that and getting a little better so I can crack on with this rather gruelling schedule.
Happy Tuesday I leave you with a few bedroom shots to ponder
Crazy week for me this week but I’m planning a treatment at the Cowshed, Shoreditch house on the weekend which is keeping me going



I too am planning a bedroom makeover, thanks for giving me a further incentive!
Please, please don’t drink orange juice or milk if you are sick….both Really bad.
Enjoy your treatment at the weekend.

Thank you good luck with the bedroom and no more OJ for me for the next few days
Boiled rice!!! Poor you, take it easy !!!!
Love that first bedroom shot! Sorry to hear you are poorly – my worst nightmare throwing up ! Try some Motilium or some Pepto Bismol and AVOID the Orange Juice ! (too much acid – gets the stomach going again) plain rice and water for you! x
thank you very much
hope you are feeling better soon, drink lots of cooled boiled water. Look forward to the posts of your new bedroom. Enjoy Cowshed!
Thank you x
Hope you feel better soon.
On a practical note, is the paint colour of the first bedroom ‘Downpipe’ by any chance?
bedroom storage?? always an issue for me….any ideas? (already have vintage cases stacked up in the fireplace for belts etc, and huge tallboy), – so much STUFF without a dedicated dressing room ….grrrr
Hey Abigail – so happy about your influx of work and terrific projects. I have to revamp my bedroom. I’ve neglected it long enough. I have one bad issue – on the main feature wall where my bed is – I only have one window. So unless my husband agrees to put another window in, I have a problem. I have to come up with something very creative (I have thought of your idea of a paneled wall (or a padded upholstered wall) that would hide a walk in wardrobe. I could angle the wall and have the storage space behind it. What do you think?
Thanks for the visuals (wish I had a fireplace in there – how cozy and beautiful!). Do you think the cooking show you designed is shown on BBC America? Would love to see it!!!

Hope you’ll feel better soon.
Bedrooms are important, especially for us here in Malta. In summer it’s so hot that we have to spend half of the day asleep as well!
