Year 2015

Happy New Year, You.
May you stay healthy or become healthier if you currently aren't, see lots of heart-throbbing sunsets and drink lots of exquisite whiskey.

You are a bird, a fish, dead leaves on the dirty ground, a star, dirt and a red berry. And you are my dear friend. I hope you know that.

My First Ercol

Ercol has been my burning vintage desire since I read Margaret Howell's book. It's one of these things that makes me want to obtain just because of its make.
I love Ercol furniture's simplicity, distinctiveness and beauty.

Two years ago, I found this exquisite piece of furniture at a charity shop. It was love at first site.
1950's vintage square butterfly table, in a too-good-to-be-true condition; I could see the signs of aging, but what was obvious was that it had been loved and well taken care of.
I knew my place didn't have space for an extra table but I just had to make this mine.
I did, and it makes me chuffed everyday.
