House & Garden: July Issue

It's been out for a little bit now but the horrible wet weather this weekend gave me a chance to finally sit down and luxuriate in the pages of July's House & Garden.

Let me tell you what I am loving then...

...this cute white bowl, I'd use it at Easter time and fill it to the brim with chocolate and eggs.  They are from Villa Mondo and come in all shapes and sizes.

I love fire pits.  Not necessarily this exact style but the atmosphere they create.

Adore these floors.  Probably too glossy to be practical for our household but LOVE how dark they are.

 I can never go past a black frame picture wall.  Ever.

I'm pointing out these children's rooms in the same house because...

...I noticed a couple of little goodies that can be found in my very own P&P.

                        The Princess & The Pea Doll here        Stacking Apple Baskets here

I'm a fool for Union Jack cushions and this one from Laura Ashley is perfect.  Loved the colour combo so much I may or may not have been able to refrain.  It may or may not be on its way to me as we speak :)

If you're lucky enough to be living in the UK (or Austria, Germany, Switzerland or Italy for that matter - LA will ship to you there), you have the option of buying it here in cerise, which I think would be lovely for a girl's room.

Finally, I'm interested to visit an open garden in Gordon next month.  Am enjoying planning out some new garden beds so eager to have a look at some established ones and take away any pointers I can.

Not a bad issue I thought.
