Material Pleasures...

Material Pleasures by Julie Spurgeon

At this years Country Living Fair I had the pleasure of meeting Julie Spurgeon, the designer and creator of Material Pleasures...

Fine bone china and ceramics inspired by the sights, sounds and experiences of both Julie's childhood and later life...

I am in love with her latest 'Sorbet' collection of pastel coloured earthenware... with its pretty scalloped edges and unique whimsical design...

Other beautiful collections include... Velvet Crush, The Hellebore Trail & The White Collection...

Material Pleasures magical collections can be found on their online shop...
and in Liberty London...

Also check them out on FB & Twitter...

I had a fantastic day out yesterday at the Country Living Fair, BDC Islington... 

There were hundreds of exhibitors from all over the UK... some of my favourites were... 

The Painted House... Material Pleasures... 

& Caroline Zoob... 

Look out for them in new posts coming soon...

Alongside some gorgeous bits and pieces, I picked up this great 'Country Home' bookazine, packed full of inspiring houses, decorating ideas and colour schemes...

Cant wait to have a good flick though...

Neat Storage...

I absolutely love this storage idea created by Benita at beautiful Chez Larsson blog...

Both a functional and stylish feature... which would look great in any open wardrobe or storage system...

Benita simply took 4 screw in castors and attached them to her chunky wicker basket...

I will definitely be trying this idea out for myself...
