‘The upcycled Lloyd Loom chest was a gift from my sister and it gives us extra storage. The bright spotty fabric works well with the greens and pinks and other patterns, which include blinds from Laura Ashley and cushions with my own print designs’
Sitting room
‘We both liked the idea of a cosy, checked chair, so that was our first buy for this room, along with the sofa. We had a bit of a decorating disaster early on, as I chose a minky taupe for the walls. It turned out almost lilac and just looked wrong, so we had to start again! The green is unusual, and very restful, especially as I’ve softened it with a creamy-yellow on the other walls.‘
