All I can say is that as it is half term the house looks NOTHING like it does in the photos. Due to the cold and often wet weather the children have been indoors a lot and have made a complete mess in each and every room. Not that they call it mess of course, they are camps, space ships, boats and castles made with all the cushions, blankets, cardboard boxes and toys they can find! Hey ho, Happy Half Term!

Hi Donna,
Just wanted to stop by and tell you how much I enjoy your blog! I've been following it for some time now - it was because of you guys that we booked a holiday to Fuerte and went to see the ship wreck! It was amazing!
Your blog, your fabric and your home are a source of real inspiration and beauty.
Thanks!
Best Wishes,
Liz
Went shopping - yuck! There must be a great quantity of people out there who have read your blog because I've not been able to find the magazine yet. I am not deterred however and will keep searching.
Donna, you have such a pretty kitchen! I am going to hunt out that magazine here in Australia cause your kitchen is my new favourite! (I am ever hopeful of having a kitchen reno soon!)
Looks utterly gorgeous Dons, I will have to see if I can get to some shops and get my own copy.

Hello Donna
Thankyou for stopping by my blog, I am glad you did as I have now found yours! It was nice to see Truro from your perspective. I love Truro fabrics and always spend to much time and money in there! There is another fabric shop, not as big, up one of the back streets that sells lots of discounted fabric so next time you are down here I will tell you where it is. I am going to pop over to your website now and see if you have any fabric I could make a skirt out of, with some help from a friend. Will be back soon. Jane xx
how wonderful! Im going to look out for it...we'll probably get it in Jan09 over here in Australia...so behind!
How fantastic! I love your kitchen! Congratulations on such a super article!
So, having had such trouble finding a copy of the mag, I am totally depressed. I could never aspire to any of the homes in this publication. I am just ordinary, and live in an ordinary place. I do ordinary things, with ordinary people, except of course when I spend time with Donna ...
I thoroughly enjoyed reading your words and looking at your beautiful home in my copy of 25 Beautiful Homes, I am currently refurbishing our home and have taken great inspiration from your delightful blog

Donna, your house looks just beautiful, such a wonderful home. Congratulations on another fab magazine article!

Best Wishes,
Laura.
