kitchen makeover

when i came across the fab pure style home blog i just loved what interior designer lauren liess had managed to do to her new home in just two weeks! with help from her family,friends and handy husband she managed to turn her kitchen from a dark wood nightmare into a light airy space, with lots of open shelving to display fave kitchenware. Love how colour has been brought easily into the dining room with a desk and colourful artwork.
take a look.........

yummy cookbooks + kitchens

i don't really do that much cooking but for some reason i love cook books, jamie and nigella can't get enough. so when i saw that sophie dahl (love her) had brought a book out i was intreged so i ordered it from amazon (only cost £8 bargain!) this book is gorgeous not only are there some yummy but simple recipes with lush styling and illustrations, sophie also writes about her life and her relationship with food as an introduction to each section, split into the four seasons.

your space community makeover

this is a great competition running on mydeco at the moment, if there is a community space in your area that's looking a bit dull and tired, the yourspace campaign is giving one uk project a chance to get their space made over by mega designers sir terrence conran and tara bernerd (love her work!) all you have to do is submit a picture of your space and tell them why it deserves a makeover entries close may 29th. I think this a great idea there is no reason why public spaces can't be beautifully designed and practical.

imagine if your local youth centre was given a funky edge like this

or your local rundown library was given a cosy hunting lodge feel like this
