We were rather thrilled when a very beautiful press release arrived from Fired Earth announcing their new collection of ten paint colours and two wallpapers in four colours inspired by the British country house. In the name of research, I went straight round to the lovely Cambridge showroom and got my hands on some samples and they are indeed gorgeous. The press release says that the paints and wallpapers are reminiscent of ‘classic country interiors, lazy bygone days and summer cocktail parties’, which is a quite a promise but I have to say, they do give more than a nod to these sentiments, especially when shown off in the charming settings shown in their images. If your style errs towards the traditional British, I think you are may be in for a bit of Easter weekend decorating. I am already wondering where to put a bit of Margaret Rose paint here at Chateau Burren.
