playing in store







In amongst playing with all our peg dolls as they arrive instore, we've also been having lots of fun with the new Designers Guild Barcelona fabric collection. I thought you might like to see a few images of my store this week. I am just loving the Ramblas rose print. I think that bed looks fantastic.It always takes a while to pull these displays together by the time we have furniture recovered, lampshades and cushions made, and find a few extra props such as the cane chair which I've spray-painted. But it's always worth the wait and effort, and the store becomes so inspiring to be amongst!

  1. I'll say inspiring! I'd consider a visit to NZ just to see your shop. It's beautiful! May be easier to hit Barcelona for now though ;-) I can only imagine the time and investment you must go through. Great job

  7. WOW Amanda,
    Your shop is amazing. This new Designers Guild collection is so retro isn't it ?...and, the cane chair is so reminisent of the 70's. They were called Peacock chairs then. I love it. XXXX
