mariposabelle What do you mean by the word "colorway"?

Lauren Gries Hi Mariposabelle, by colorway I am referring to the colors that each paper comes in. A colorway by definition is any of a range of combinations of colors in which a style or design is available. So this paper comes in other options where there are different color combinations.

Jamie Scott Surely the Harley Balloon Chair is just an Orkney Chair?

If you're going to spend that sort of money why not go for the real thing. It'd be hand made, in it's original form (to keep the drafts out in a draughty croft), unique and even after import costs (with taxes!) cheaper.

mrsben Perfectly timed, as I am endeavouring doing the same with one our guest bedrooms and can vouch that combining both masculine and feminine luxurious elements in equal parts, is definitely a challenge. So, thank you for the tips!
