via annechovie love it!

Morning! We have had an early morning here at the Ivy and Piper home office with Penny deciding to wake at 4.15am !!!! Yikes! Anyway it has given me a chance to check out some gorgeous wall candy for a client and here are a few things I have found that would work for her... or you for that matter.... I have loved Louise Tidd for such a long time Anna from Absolutely Beautiful Things introduced me to her years ago when we were working together. Love the abstract art from Lindsay Cowles so bright we love the first one in particular it would be great on its own or added to an ever expanding cluster wall. Last but not least the stunning vivid pink and yellow from Annechovie one of our fav colour combos. It packs a punch to say the least definitely one to hang on its own. Check out their links you will find plenty to fill your walls with. Hope your week is filled with brights.

IT'S WHATS OUTSIDE THAT COUNTS...

Some lovely little pics to start the week. As interior designers of course it drives us crazy when people build beautiful homes with all the right finishes on the outside but leave no budget for the interiors. When this happens it seems the house is let down such a shame but in saying this of course what is on the outside counts too. And aren't these beautiful all in there own way? Picture number one reminds us of the homes in a film we saw recently, The Help but don't those pretty painted shutters just get your pulse racing?

Happy Monday, we hope you are enjoying your IvP VIP copies not long now and the issue will go live.
