Custom designed rugs
This isn’t a brilliant photograph – I did remember my camera for once…but without the memory card, so had to borrow my client’s phone. Anyway, I hope you get the general gist of this…you can have a rug designed and … Continue reading
OOOPS!
….We’d just moved the scaffolding across to the other side of the bay window, when I realised I was missing a rather vital piece of equipment… …After I’d managed to retrieve it, things went very well – I’m always nervous … Continue reading
Barcaldine Castle
I felt a bit like Father Christmas doing my rounds today – a pair of curtains here, a bit of restored furniture there and, finally, a whole heap of goodies for Barcaldine Castle. Having “done” the Lairds Parlour last year, … Continue reading
Finishing Touches

Window dressing
This turned out to be rather a neat way of dealing with a not very attractive cloakroom window. As there was no view, the glass being “obscured”, we had fun dressing it up and making those necessary five minutes in … Continue reading
Dalmally
Just finished the last guest bedroom in this house - for lovely clients with whom I’ve worked very happily for years. Because the fabric is so wonderful, it seemed right that the pelmet should be flat in order to show … Continue reading
Kilninver
I enjoyed returning here, having done the curtains from top to toe about 10 years ago…still looking fabulous! This time it was the furniture that needed attention. I’m glad I took the camera, as my upholsterers have worked their usual … Continue reading
