Re-upholstery

Before

After

I love reupholstering old pieces of furniture. This is a perfect example of what a difference a great fabric can make to a family heirloom. It looks stunning.

Bluebellgray

How vibrant are these fabrics and cushions from Bluebellgray.

Bluebellgray is a Scottish textile design company specialising in the home interiors market. Influenced by a love of colour and all things floral, the designs are something unique and special, each design is painted by hand in the Bluebellgray studio before being printing onto natural cottons and linens using state of the art printing technology.

The printing methods used by Bluebellgray enable every brushstroke and colour to be captured enhancing the feel of the hand painted design.

Plate Heaven

I came across these Ginori plates, that look like paint colour testers and I love them. On doing some research, I came across these image of other Richard Ginori plates.... WOW.
Richard Ginori is an Italian compay, based in Florence, founded in 1735, that produces some stunning contemporary designs.... I'll be buying up big on my next visit to Florence (not sure when this will be....).

This was a display at Object & Maison in France and its AMAZING.
