I have been clearing out cupboards and sorting through all sorts of collected stuff lately as the builders have moved in and are ripping down walls and ultimately giving us a new dining space. Deep in my airing cupboard I found some beautiful linen tablecloths, hand embroidered and given to me by my mother. I tried to imagine them in the new dining room but today, frankly my creative vision was rather clouded by dust and rubble and water puddles on the landing. I placed them to one side, delaying putting them on eBay, as I could not picture them in that moment in our new dining room on the (hopefully-ready-by-Christmas) table. I was later rummaging through the online portfolio of photographer
Emma Lee and, seeing this image, thought that I may well hold on to them, give them a good wash and starch and dress with a simple floral display. I came across her work from the latest Cox and Cox catalogue and have been newly inspired. Thank you Emma!
