a sneak peek to start the week




























































I hope you all had a great weekend. Wet, grey and really cold here. So what better to put you in a fabulous frame of mind to start the week, than a wee peek at a few treats from the new Designers Guild Zephirine collection. You saw it here first! As tight-lipped as Designers Guild are about a new collection, I had heard to expect 'bold and different'. Well, it certainly is all that and so much more. Now, I know I am a Designers Guild groupie, and I'm bound to be biased, but yet again they've raised the bar with another stunning collection.
How much gorgeousness can there be in a photo? Skywood House has had another amazing makeover.
Just imagine sitting in that beautiful room, surrounded by those brilliant florals - wallpaper, fabric and real, and gazing out on to the lush green garden outside. I should be happy to park myself in that room forever. Although I suppose I could stagger up to the other end of the room and relax on the quite plush looking stripey velvet sofa, gazing at the flowers on the wallpaper panels, which are literally spilling over the edge. 
Instead I'm going to have to content myself with gazing at the photos of my imagined life, zooming in on all the little details such as the flowers, books and cushions. I am not well!
Happy happy Monday!

  2. What a lovely makeover Skywood House has had. I especially like the way the wallpaper has been used as feature panels rather than all over the wall. Stunning. Enjoy the gazing and dreaming.xx

  3. The chair and sofa shapes are great - on elegant legs and not at all hefty - perfect to counterbalance of strong character of the fabrics.
