Notes

Selina Lake’s new book Homespun Style is perfect for anyone in search of unique, innovative and sustainable ideas for every room in the house. It’s a look that celebrates customized furniture and handcrafted pieces and reflects our growing passion for crafting, stitching and painting. Packed full of wonderfully eclectic and inspiring interiors, from the basics of modern craft to imaginative ways to recycle and reuse - transforming furniture with a lick of paint to finding inspired new uses for everyday items. There is also a Spaces section showing how the style works beautifully in living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms, children’s rooms, workrooms and even out of doors. From embroidered tablecloths and appealing folk art, to crocheted blankets and retro kitchenware, it’s a cosy, comfy look that’s easy to live with and create. Homespun Style by Selina Lake and Joanna Simmons, photography by Debi Treloar, published by Ryland Peters & Small, £19.99 and available from all good bookshops and online here.
