What a lovely home. Love the mix of items which look like the have been lovingly collected over the years. Roger clearly has very good taste - fab,

@ Rose 123 - dress is from Zara

@Thatkins - I used a website with curtain and blind making instructions which were quite easy to follow.

A pelmet is always good to hide any uneven pleating you may have at the top of your curtains. I used quite inexpensive fabrics but just made sure they had a good weight to them.

@ElaneB - I would have to agree about the best thing in the house ;)

@metalLauren & Horta - thank you

@sarahJH - The lights were really simple. Basically I bought some red flex which I put a light fitting onto the end of (very easy to wire) and then wrapped the cord around some spare vintage bobbins I had picked up. The whole thing ended up in the glass bowls because I needed something to hold the bobbin and found these spare in my cupboard. I bought the cable from a UK business on ebay (they have lots of colours). Alternatively, if you want a fabric covered flex and live in the UK try 95% design. Just to warn you though their flex is a lot more expensive than the company I used and I think they only sell a set length whereas the ebay business can send you any length you need. Hope that helps.

@sarah in CT - need to check on bedroom paint colour. I have just leant my spare tin to a friend who is choosing colours for her home and cant remember the name.

@DMK1 - lounge is F&B bone white, Entrance is Dulux standard white

To everyone else who has been nice about our home and my family thank you
