A bright little nook


This is one of my favourite nooks in my home. I adore the pretty fabrics and that gorgeous pink on the side table. Coming home to a spot of colour always makes me happy!

My husband Luke had a facial last night, his first one too. I did have to laugh as he told me he was 'nervous' about going! I actually bought him a mens facial for Valentines Day as I personally adore them and he could never quite understand why. Now he does and loved it... I didn't tell him about the bit where they do 'extractions'... I didn't want to ruin the 'experience'! Kellie xx

    No wonder that is your favourie nook. Such a 'happy' spot.
    Great to hear Luke enjoyed his facial, not sure if at 54 my husband would go for a facial!!

    What a pretty nook! I love the colours and patterns!
    Hmm...not sure Lyndon would do the facial thing - not blokey enough for him. Maybe if the products were made from beer!!

    How much fun! Where can you recommend to get a good facial? I have always found myself a little disappointed, and it's so hard to find a place who does extractions.

    that's so funny, boys are scared of the silliest things!

    but luke is a mean wallpapering machine, he deserserves a bit of relaxation!! extractions come come later when the wallpapering is totally finished : )

    That pink stand is lovely. The story about the facial is funny. I turned my husband on to massages that way. Now that is all he talks about. I wish he would get a facial (I had one yesterday and it was amazing), but I may need to trick him into it.

    Best,
    Marcie

    What a fun little corner. Today is my hubby's b-day. I should have treated him to a facial (what a fantastic idea). Just notice your girls cuddled up in thei bed. How a-dora-ble

    Not only do I love the side table, I'm loving the lampshade! Did you make that yourself with fabric? Or is there a wonderful place where you can buy said lampshades?

    Great lampshade. The selection of lampshades in my area is pitiful.
