As I promised, we are stepping into my studio to glimpse at parts of the decoration, and today I wanted to show you fabrics I brought from my previous home, to make this new place look more familiar. First, there's a a light-as-a-feather black and white shawl I bought in Singapore, that I use to cover the comfy chair where Benjy curls up for his naps. There's also the ancient towels my mum received from my grandmother (!); their rough cotton dries and invigorates the skin in no time. I also brought with me my dear almond-green bedsheets and pillow cases; with a brand new pristine white comforter, it makes my bed look fresh and pretty.More next week!

a familiar pattern is so soothing and comforting and these are just lovely.
Frabrics...that's exactly what my now 14yo dd called them until very recently. :p

Adorable Benjy must look ultra-adorable all curled up on that lovely shawl.
You are giving your new place such a warm, inviting and personal touch, which pleases me to no end.
Do your grandmother's towels have tassels on them?
They almost look as if they could be shawls!
