Hello everyone, hope you are having a nice weekend. I am pottering about the house this morning doing a few jobs. Have the dinner on now so just relaxing a bit. I recently purchased a small unit for my entrance hall. It fits nicely underneath my stairs as this space looked very bare. I find that I have very little accessories for my new home and have put this damask pattern lamp and cushion here for the moment. I am on the look out for a nice light green colour lamp and cushion instead as I think they would suit much better. What do you think? The wee bird candle holder was bought in Homebase and the statue of the man and woman was a wedding gift we received. Have you any photographs of your hall, or any entrance halls that you think are inviting? If so, please let me know, as I'm looking for inspiration....

Here are a few images of my new home which is progressing ever so slowly. Inside it is almost ready for plastering. I am ready to pick my front door too so the exterior can then be plastered. This week the roofs were slatted on the two single storey sections.

Here is an image below of the snug, to the left hand side, the stove will be situated.

And here is the entrance hallway which is double height. I have yet to look at stairs and banisters for the landing.

The sunshine yellow room, with beautiful fireplace, mirror and grand bookcase.

The blue room, very elegant with pretty porcelain tiles on the fire surround

The grand red room, this is the ladies room,

Look at that plaster work on the ceiling and moulding, and the mirror is very elaborate.

Another wonderful room, those windows are so grand and I love the shutters.

Wouldn't you love that view every day...

and to eat in this dining room...

and when your day is over, retreat up these stairs to bed...

Oh to live in a grand house in the Irish Countryside
