This week...





We have been entertaining political babies.
 

 
Painting walls urban grey and laying flooring



Finding the perfect lampshade for that urban grey wall.
 
Moving lots of furniture around and then moving it back.
Entertained the grandparents who flew in from San Francisco.
And dreaming about what we can do in the garden, which is a wasteland,
and being told by Monty Don that I have until Christmas to my tulips in the ground.

  3. All that hard work will pay off in the long run - you'll have a beautiful home! And the garden will take time if it's truly a wasteland, but just like the house, with time it will become beautiful. But don't forget to enjoy the process a little, too!

  4. You are going to have one elegant home when you're done! The snippets you're sharing look fantastic. I'm such a coward about home decor...
