Just back from visiting a house that\u2019s about to undergo an incredible transformation.<\/p>\n<p>The rather dated property is right in the heart of Bosham \u2013 a pretty coastal village in West Sussex that\u2019s been captured beautifully in this shot by photographer friend Shelley Jarvis.<\/p>\n<p>It was super to see the owner\u2019s plans and moodboards, and to hear all about her forthcoming project, which is going to turn a fairly nondescript yet spacious house into something very special. I can\u2019t wait to return when it\u2019s all finished.<\/p>\n<p>Talking of moodboards, Friday\u2019s workshop at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ivoryandpitch.co.uk\">Ivory &amp; Pitch<\/a> in Westbourne, Hampshire, provided plenty of inspiration for my own forthcoming project \u2013 the long-awaited living room makeover.<\/p>\n<p>The room is a fairly awkward shape and has various other problems that need to be addressed. However, with so much going on in my life, I\u2019ve been procrastinating about the project for ages.<\/p>\n<p>This course gave me the chance to get away from any distractions, enabling me to concentrate on formulating a raft of ideas for the makeover.<\/p>\n<p>It was great to liaise with experienced interior designer Caroline Ivory and the other ladies on the course as we bounced ideas off each other. The end result was a range of impressive moodboards, reflecting everyone\u2019s tastes, favoured colours and personalities. Now, the hard work begins as we all turn our boards into reality.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">\u00a0You can view more of Shelley\u2019s photographs by clicking on this link for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shelleysgallery.co.uk\">Shelley\u2019s Gallery<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What a great start to the week.
