At last, things are happening here!




Hopefully, some time soon, this little lot will be turned into something resembling an 1880s gentleman's bedroom.


I had planned to be further on with the room today but lack of light fittings has held up proceedings as I was reluctant to order any especially as I'm off to NEC, Birmingham at the weekend. I'm hoping to pick up something there (as well as loads of other stuff!). I did however get the ceiling painted, and some of the walls papered and with any luck there will be more to show you all next week.

  1. That's a very nice looking start! I like the colours very much - and the slippers are great :)

  3. I love the slippers and the armchair. I am sure you will find lots of things at the fair in Birmingham, I hope you'll show them.

  4. Thanks. The slippers are part of a little Reutter set with ashtray, pipe, matches and newspaper. As for the fair, I can't wait! You should see the length of the list, and yes, I'll put pics of the purchases on the blog

  5. O' you have a lot of great things going on Irene!!!

    Thank you for visiting my blog. I like the cameos a lot too. Accessorize was the shop where I found them. Earlier I have purchased a small phone and tiny clock faces from them... really nice stuff!!!

  6. Irene, my visit to your blog is overdue! Your Hambleton House is gorgeous! I've been to Scotland and it's a beautiful country with tons of inspiration for the miniturist, for sure. Welcome to my blog as well.

  7. Hi,

    I love the slippers and I think you need a big spidey for that chair!

  8. Synnove, I would never have guessed Accessorize for the cameos. I must pay more attention when I next pop in there!

    Cynthia, Welcome! Progress is slow at The Hall unfortunately - real life decorating is interfering with it all but soon, there will be pictures soon!

  9. Hi,

    I'm looking forward to seeing the gentleman's bedroom. Bedrooms are good fun to decorate aren't they?
