Happy New Year


Hope you all had a brilliant Christmas and New Year and very best wishes for health and happiness for the coming year.

Just to keep you updated on the Garden Room, I will be closed this week as unfortunately we had a burst pipe in the workshop on christmas eve so we had to do some quick shifting of furniture etc. and then had a fantastic new years eve party in the shop!!!! Loads of greenery, lichen covered branches and candles everywhere set the scene for a great night.  We found 'spotify' in the summer so any excuse to play, it brings out the Disco Queen in me!!!!

Lots of great pieces of furniture to paint - picking up a fab dresser to do next week and pretty dressing table.  Also have a lovely georgian chest of drawers to do.  Excited about trying some new colours and a few new techniques.  Farrow & Ball are bringing some new colours out in early Feb. As you know I adore their muted off whites etc. but I think we might be looking at some brighter colours in our schemes in future, some bright rusty oranges or a splash of a bright turquoise even its a flash of colour inside a cupboard or drawer.  How brilliant it is that we can have a play with these colours with paint and don't have invest a huge amount. 
As soon as I have some painting done will put some pictures on the website and on here.

The Garden Room will be open in a couple of weeks with new goodies and some sale pieces do come and have a look, just give me a call.
