The Boudoir

 I found these wonderful 1940s lamps on Etsy


Aren't they beautiful?

They were a little expensive to ship from the US
(the fixtures are cast iron and the hearts are thick glass)
and they need to be rewired but the price was reasonable and
THIS lovely seller let me hold them until I could afford 
them, so I simply couldn't resist purchasing them



The Marie Galant Make-up Trunk

And yesterday I spotted the perfect dresser to compliment
those darling little heart-shaped regency boudoir lamps....
It was in an OP shop (and it was cheap) so I bought it!
(No, it's not The Marie Galant. Sigh!)
I couldn't quite place the era my new dresser (perhaps 60s)
so I started doing online research,  just for interest's sake,
& that's when I stumbled upon the gem of a design above...

And isn't it just fabulous?

Ah, the wish list just keeps growing and growing!

 I love my dresser, but if I had a few K lying around...

(I'll post some shots of 'The Boudoir' once it's all pretty-ified)

Well.... we've been in our little country house just on a year,
and whilst the house and studio are coming together nicely,
the bedroom could use some TLC (and maybe a lick of paint).

Life is slowly getting back on track around here
after our very sad and sudden trip to Tasmania.

thanks for everyone's love and support xo
