Playing catch up

 

Firstly, the heads up on some more fabric to go on Ebay soon.  You saw it here first!

Colourful vintage linen fabric in a Nasturtium design.  4 yards and it measures 34 1/2" wide.  

This vintage Laura Ashley fabric (1977) is actually more terracotta than it looks in this photo.  6 metres of it x 48"wide so plenty for a big pair of curtains or a wholecloth quilt.

How annoying THIS was.  Had we cut more carefully when leaving a little over so we didn't cut too short, we would have had enough to do this.  Ah well . . . (P.S.  It's behind a bookcase and I'd have bodged this!!)

This is the only upper-wall part of the room which was papered (all the rest is wooden tongue and groove).  To the right is the other strip which needs to be finished - when the wallpaper arrives.

I need to get busy with a paintbrush and do the shutters and windowsill when I have time, carefully covering the newly-decorated walls of course.

All the pictures have been temporarily taken down  but the Best Mirror has been taken out of wraps and is finally in place - just in time for her to move!  The paint colour is Moroccan Mint.

Waiting to go up - and we have been waiting 3 months for the frame - first one arrived damaged, and then we had to send it back, get a refund and order again. . .

Now, believe it or not there is a very strong link between this photograph and this one I showed yesterday.  All will be revealed tomorrow . . .
