After the last post about our new home which focused on the village we decided it would be fun to start a series on 'our home' which will give us a chance to share our newly decorated cottage along with other bits and bobs about Falkland. 


So here is our living room! I think it's my favourite room in the cottage, but I do keep changing my mind. I did a mood board post with what I had in mind for this room back in July and I'd say it turned out how I'd planned. I know it's really girly with all the pink and florals but it's also very comfy, cosy and practical. We have our little dining corner which can fold out to seat 6 for dinner and the big pink corner sofa is a double sofa bed (it also stores all the guest bedding inside it!). We painted the plain furniture ourselves with Autentico chalk paints and my Mum is to thank for the wallpapering (thanks Mum!) There are links under the photos to where we bought some of our living room things but if I've missed something which you're curious about let me know!

  1. Your home is lovely and the village is beautiful.With your talent I see you thriving in this atmosphere.
    I live on and island which with population growth is quickly becoming suburbanised and that makes me sad.
