Philosophy of the Tent:

The best decorating and design takes inspiration from what was once done before. Whether it is in architecture, antiques, art, it all stems from a mix of inspiration and knowledge. I believe it is a duty to pass on and share the knowledge, and by no means do I think I have great knowledge, in fact the more I know the less I know.
This blog is a way not to forget what I have learned and what was kindly passed onto to me by a great many fascinating people. I thank you all.

Emerald Cut and Mushy Peas

Greens are still going strong, emerald and pea greens in particular.  I believe John Fowler used to say all greens go together. So glad as I am firmly holding on to my citrus green armchair, it will just need an emerald green cushion.
