mixing old and new
mixing old and new is my favourite style as a lot of people.
But achieving the perfect look is not so easy.
I want people to describe my house, say " classic contemporary" but
always"homely" "mixing much" or "eclectic"witch is I don't mind, worth one is "clatter style".
Yes I do collect stuff, you need good dispelling I guess.
Well never mind I will get there as like these gorgeous houses.

ruins
Something I am always interested in, or I should say pulls me to it, is Ruins.
They're just so fascinating! Since I was little, as little as 4years old.
I walked into old, unused buildings or tried to find war time bunkers.
I loved spending time on my own, for hours I went out.
Nowadays you could never imagine a little child going out by his or herself.
Last year I visited a place in Kent, it was a huge development site which
used be an edwardian time hospital.

I visited this site for my work so I was not planing to walk into the those buildings.
But me being me, I asked forman if I could look around these buildings.
He told me that the buildings aren't stable so it's best only to look at the buildings from
outside. ( He gave me a helmet for health and safety!)

I looked around the buildings and looked at the inside from the broken windows and used door ways.
I was speechless, well... there was nobody there to chat with anyway.
Everything about this building was so fascinating, broken doors ,windows which lay on the floor. And there was one room which had an operational chair in.
Some rooms still had fire places, wide skirting board, picture rails and under what looks like 1970's wallpaper, there was a very pretty little floral wallpaper showing through.
Wall tiles and floor tiles, old carpet (looks like 1950's Heals) and when I noticed I walked inside the building (they were all jointed) up stairs and down stairs. It was Just "fascinating!!"

Antique Doors
Driving back from a friends home in London traffic, I took side roads to avoid sitting in the traffic.
If I have time I love driving into residential roads. I always found myself very excited by
just looking at the architectural features of the houses and the beautiful plants and flowers in front of the gardens. Lovely paint colours on the doors and window frames, also I love looking at beautiful stained glass in the doors and in the door frame surroundings. Some houses are so gorgeous that it makes me want to look at interior of the house and I nearly knocked on the door.
This area has this a lovely green waste bag.
(we have a big and ugly one!)
