The Tentacled Hallway

Last weekend we finally got round to adding some more personal touches to the house. We'd had two of the mirrors for a good few weeks, but were lacking a drill. We now have a drill, much to Ben's dismay as I am demanding we put holes here there and everywhere. 


This mirror we got from eBay, its so ruddy pretty. I can finally put on my lippy in the bedroom instead of hovering of the hard to reach mirror in the bathroom!



Little mirror amongst the hat collection.


My favourite accessory in the whole house, I absolutely love it. It reminds me of the amazing Adam Wallacavage's work, but without the price available on request tag. I am saving it up one day for one of his chandeliers. 





New mirror for the hallway we got last weekend for £18!


Another mirror we got last Saturday I just love the shape of it, this was only £15. Also finally got some chairs, four £5 each. I am going to sand them all down and paint them blue with a dash of gold, as I am gaudy like that. 



Finally got one of my favourite Caitlin Shearer prints up.



This is hung up in the kitchen, think Vincent Price would be chuffed being the foodie he was.

No place like home

So our house is coming together slowly but surely, there's still lots that we want to do but we are taking our time as don't want to rush into redecorating and then change our minds! But thought you would like to see what it's like so far! Do not have curtains anywhere so lots of dodgy blinds that were left and metres of lace wrapped around ugly curtain poles, so if anyone stumbles across some dusty pink velvet curtains give me a shout!
