Now I am a shabby kinda girl at heart but I have recently been preparing my flat for sale and so, given that it is a very modern flat, I decided to market it in a metrosexual kinda style. Please excuse the picutres I have nabbed them from Rightmove.
It was not easy for me to keep it so minimal I have to admit. It is a beautiful flat and only 10 minutes walk to the sea shore and less than that to the shops. Still onwards and upwards as they say.
I love Laura Ashley and so I am hoping to persuade my significant other that we really need this wallpaper in the guest bedroom of our future pied a terre. It is called Marissa and I have been hankering after it ever since I saw it in Bibbitybobs flat. As there is a 50% sale on at the moment I might just say Pretty Please and bat my eyelids more than normal.

It isn’t quite finished, I just need to add the tassle and a bit of binding around the top. Shameful because as you can see from the photo I have been in the middle of this since last September.

Thanks for the link honey 🙂 I still love that wallpaper – I even brought the offcuts to this house! Seriously tempted to use it somewhere here too, it's fab x

You did Bibbity and thanks for reading. I need to put more effort in. Fay, if only it was a house like yours then I would recommend here to live and there is always IBER to work at. You would love it there with all the plant research and it is 10 minutes from my house.
