Curtain


We've got this funny little door in our bathroom
Which leads nowhere, except to the hot water tank.
And it's kind of half-way up the wall.
I think it's my favourite thing in our whole house.

Even more now I've appropriated this gorgeous tea-towel
by Leah Duncan as a curtain (to hide said hot water tank).

*****

I've made a few changes hither and thither.
New header. New profile pic.

Been a bit confusicated about my blogging style lately.
More chatty? Less chatty?
More random stuff?
(Yeah, like, a post about a door. In my bathroom)
Or keep more focussed on work?
More personal, less personal?
Or just carry on ambling and rambling aimlessly?

Your thoughts much appreciated!

  1. Oooh that teatowel looks fab- although naturally would have expected you to have designed some sort of special custom-made stained glass doobery to go there!

    I love your blog just the way it is xxx

  4. oooh blog makeover! (i don't get out much.) i love your blog. i think it's got a similar balance to mine - some work, some rambling. i like that. plus you make me laugh which is always a good thing and you taught me a new word: "confusicated" so i'm learning too! really lovely picture of you by the way. x

    p.s door also v pretty. i'd like a closet with glass panelled doors so i could adorn it with gorgeous fabric.

  8. Thank you sweet people - I guess sometimes you just feel like you're wittering on to yourself! Thought I'd better check :)

    Chelle - I'll go and look for you on Pinterest now!

    Francesca - I am so loving your blog at the moment (well I've always loved it, but you seem to be especially spot-on lately)

    I was so pleased when I saw that the measurements of that tea towel matched those of the door. I had some rather dreadful faux Cath Kidston there before. It annoyed me every day!

  9. I may have to steal that tea-towel idea, as the glass panels between my utility room and tv room always annoy me. I suppose ingenuity will have to be applied to making it look ok from both sides. You look exactly as I imagined, but more inscrutable.

  11. For what it's worth I like the simple beautiful personal content (the two little girls eating soup in the car, how precious is that?! or a memorable one "the little red monkey" post with little girl dancing surrounded by the great colourful home fabrics) and of course your lovely stained glass work...

  13. I forgot to say how much I love your special door... I hanker after something like that. I love the tea towel treatment too, but the door makes me jealous.

  16. Great header Flora. I think your style is lovely as it is but is up to you to include what you feel happy with sharing. Yes, I would quite like to know how you got the top column too. My blog is misbehaving in a big way at the moment so I don't want to do anything to make it worse but I do like that top bit.
