Pom Pom's trim everything better!

Yes its true. Well, ok it's opinion. But I do think a pom pom trim brightens any sad object right up. Now macaroon's are by no means sad, but when there are only four in a bag and you could easily devour 10 (make that 15 for me) it is a little sad. Also try edging your curtains and pillows in a little pom pom trim or use it instead of ribbon when wrapping gifts. This trim is available on www.bohemiansunday.co.uk

 

Thinking of kitchen.

My attention has turned to my kitchen. Now that the living and dining room is pretty much where I wanted them to be, the kitchen is king of letting the house down. Alas, Rome wasn't built in a day was it, and the kitchen will have to wait. However, I can still look and take inspiration cant I? Here are a selection of, sometimes rather girly, but very pretty kitchens that I will try and persuade the OH to like!

I'm not the type of perfectionist that wants everything brand new and sparkling. I love the charm of mismatch, done in the right way. And I love freestanding units. The red wall would be little too much colour for me, but I still think this is very cute.



I know this kitchen is the kind that you would find in most homes in England, but its the small touches I love that make it personal and quirky. The use of colourful fabric that incorporates the colours of the pink radio, the red rug and the blue butter dish. Its achievable for anyone.

I love love love this kitchen! The French signs above the doors, which is usually unused space and the blue frosted glass shades and an oriental rug. This definitely adds vintage quirkiness to what is actually modern kitchen. I wish I had room for a walk in pantry!


And this one? Well, what can I say? I told you I told free standing units!

Christmas round up!

Well, Christmas 2013 was fabulous and I received my much coveted Laduree Sucre recipe book, which I am very pleased with! More than anything though, we finally got to reap the benefits of our hard work in renovating the house. In the pictures below you can see the original floor boards, finally sanded and varnished which was SUCH hard work. And the table painted in Annie Sloan Paris Grey and the dresser which is painted in Annie Sloan Duck Egg Blue, the glass was replaced with chicken wire and also painted in Paris Grey.  I dressed the Christmas Tree with a selection of glass baubles from Marks and Spencer and john Lewis (all bought in the sale!) and home made clay tags. I also added some strings of faux pearls that I was keeping around for craft projects. As Bohemian Sunday are hoping to supply tableware this year, I must also share the Christmas Prawn Cocktail which I would never, ever enjoy Christmas without! The fork is actually a pastry fork designed by Laurence Llewellyn Bowen for Arthur Price. However, the glass bowl and champagne glass are both vintage.
