Though Finn is sick yet again and all meaningful life and work is yet again on hold I just wanted to show you how the house is coming together, via the view from my sofa where I am currently pinned by said coughing and spluttering child. I have a coffee table with pretty cream legs, and oh joy, fresh new cream carpet!
Apologies if the photo is a little fuzzy, I’m typing this on my iPod…
Have a lovely afternoon Sweet Cheeks!
(oh hells bells why didn’t I tidy Finn’s magazine basket before I went showing off my fancy wallpaper?? Pride comes before a fall my little Blossom…)

    Ooh! Where did you get that lovely unit with the baskets? It would look lovely in my little living room. Or is it your little secret?

      Oh I am so sorry Lizzie, Finn's Daddy Mark made it when we moved in twelve years ago. We have a matching unit on the other side too…

    I love that corner! I could settle in there quite comfortably with you for a nice natter. That wall paper is quite quite wonderful. (I didn't even notice Finn's magazine basket till you mentioned it)

    Love it!!

  14. Ooooh, I LOVE the wallpaper! So cheerful even on the dreariest days (which it is here in MN, USA). Is it a Kathe Kidston pattern?

      It is indeed Audrey… I've got it in my head that it's called Antique Rose… but it's the one with the blue berry, so may be not… heck I'm hopeless aren't I?? But yes it truly does feel cheerful in here… now to spread the cheer throughout the rest of the house!

    Hi Alison i have been on your blog which i am really enjoying. I bought some of your downloads. I was so upset when you said you were taking a break. I started to read your blog from the very beginning. It is fantastic there was so much there that i did not know about. What a surprise is got when i got your e-mail to say that you were blogging again i am so delighted. I hope you can a find a happy balance for yourself and your family. Keep up the good work as it means so much to a lot of people. Thank you for all the nights of inspirational reading. Donna
