A touch of Grey


I would love to cluster a few of these candle lanterns in a huge tree over a table. The rust colours team back beautifully with raw oak and french oak furniture, This season I have noticed a huge shift towards these finishes. Arriving in-store now!


A beautiful room in France, love the ottoman table and the ceramic stool, The stone fireplace is stunning and the brass vases holding wood on either side create balance to the eye. I'm still looking for an old aged antique mirror for above my fireplace but I want the glass to be aged too not an easy find I'm discovering.
we have a similar sideboard on our floor but we have 15 draws in ours, the same grey wash and recycled top, I would love to take it home but hubby won't let me as It would look great on my deck (boy! men can be so mean!!!) lucky for him I think its going in an interior job of mine.

I can sympathize with you Judy on what husband's won't allow. I 'walked the line' on Monday & went shopping with MOTH for all the tiles for our main bathroom which is a gutted shell at the moment. I fall hopelessly in love with a pattern that would look fantastic, but MOTH just dug his heels in & wouldn't agree!

So exasperating - normally I can work on him, but on this occasion he's not budging! Good luck!
