Seven weeks of summer

Today's scene inspiration? A Dick Frizzell rug by Designer Rugs. (Which seems rather apt as this year's Christmas day reading is his new book).

I decided early on the it would probably be in a kiwi bach, but the sort of kiwi bach that could contain a (probably) quite expensive rug and furnishings to match. And art. Of course.

I could've stopped there, but being a beggar for punishment, I decided to keep building the scene, with further kiwi touches

and an enitre kitchen to boot!

Alas, it wasn't until I took and went to edit the pictures that I discovered that the greeny-yellow scrapbooking paper I'd picked out to match the colours of the rug reads as cream by my camera (oddly enough, the plates on the shelf next to the stove are reading pretty close to the green they are: which, to the naked eye, are about the same colour as the paper).

Rats! This makes the whole scene look a lot more suburban and boring...
