Warm and Cosy Ideas

I’m not wholly against the wintry months, but would much rather being wrapped up extremely warmly. When it is very cold, I have a fantastic coat I reviewed last year, that is like being enveloped in a silk duvet. I give it up kicking and screaming in spring!

I’m exactly the same at home. I can think of nothing more lovely, than to be sat by the fire with my family, watching a good film a roaring fire and some snugly blankets.

As regular readers of my blog know, I am currently refurnishing my living room.  I’ve lots more to show you, as it is going very well. The final area that I need to look at though, is my fireplace. So I have been seeking out ways of dressing this area, and thought I would share with you some of the ideas out there.

I know this is a little  A LOT crazy, but I love it! A wall covered in books you say….well I know it’s mad but it just works!

 

This appeals to my love of order, and the mix of vintage and new is exactly the look I go for. I love the simple string of photographs, and where else would you store your glitter ball?

 

Lots to think about, and the plan I am still trying to keep in my mind, is to bring light into the living room.  So far that is really working, I cant wait to reveal the next stage to you. Watch this space!

Thank you for reading
