My Favourite Books

[@NicolasFairford]

Hi everyone! I really hope you enjoy this episode. All of the books mentioned in this video are linked in the description above. Also, tomorrow (Sat May 1) I will be sending out the April newsletter which will include a preview of the designs for my new homeware collection - if you haven't subscribed to the newsletter and would like to do so, head to nicolasfairford.com and fill in the form that pops up. Have a great weekend x x Nicolas

[@AliSkarsgard]

Done! Actually last week! (Newsletter) Oh how I love your channel and your style. Super excited about your mid-week vlog as well. Thank you for giving us all a little more beauty in our lives by tuning in. Stay safe & cuddles to darling Sofie💕

[@madalinaserban2551]

Oh, how wonderful! Dear Nicolas, your shall be my very first proper teawear collection. I have decided I shall simply wait for it... It is such a joy to see you, read you and listen to you. Therefore, again, thank you!! Sending you much joy from my side as well xx Madalina

[@BeHappy-ct8rs]

Hello Nicolas. I recently discovered your videos. I enjoy them very much and I love that you’re showing us some of your favorite interior books. I love collecting those as well. Do you have Barbra Streisand /My passion for design? It’s wonderful! If you haven’t seen it, I encourage you to check it out . I know you’d love it. I never knew she had such an eye for design and collected so many wonderful antiques. Her home is amazing. *I the got the book after watching her talking about it on Oprah- years ago! Haha! Thank you for sharing your ideas and interior style with us. All the best! -Carmen

[@passplus1]

Excellent. Really looking forward to seeing the design previews for your homeware collection. Ideas for future vlogs - to vary afternoon tea a bit - so you do not serve the same every time, recipe for orange scented scones without fruit. How about making strawberry conserve or jam - as we will soon be in strawberry season. How to take and grow a plant cutting. Of course, I am looking forward to all the vlogs outside and around Edinburgh, but you will not always want to be outside.

[@versailles1986]

Very well presented! I, too, share your passion for books, all type of books.... Books are like old, familiar friends, always there, always bringing a smile to your face, peace to your soul and warmth to your heart.

[@ItsMeHello555]

I’m not always a big commenter, but I felt it necessary and proper today. It goes without saying how much you are enjoyed, thoroughly. When you said you had a big announcement, I figured it was something to join, financially. Then you ventured forth with how you were adding a video.. I waited for it.. the cost.. and then you said, it was to lift our spirits and get us through the hump of midweek. That’s when I new.. you are a class act.. and a giver, not just a taker. Someone that does for the joy it brings in being appreciated. I think our numbers are dwindling.. you give me great hope, and I thank you for it. You are a beauty, in all aspects.

[@cookingartguy2170]

So wonderful, as always. Books have always been my best friends since I was young and they were my form of escape from a very unhappy household and school life. They've remained my best friends and I built up quite a library of over 600 books at one time. Unfortunately, I have sold many of them, I'm down to about a hundred and fifty of my favorites. I have found many signed and inscribed first editions in thrift shops for one or two dollars, including ones signed and inscribed by Erte, Jose Quintero, Mercedes D A'costa, Armistead Maupin, and many others. Whenever I've moved, my books always were shipped with me. Anyway, another wonderful episode, all of which I'm enjoying so much.

[@carolking6355]

I enjoyed this most of all your blogs. I am an older person in a large Victorian house built in 1900 gothic style . We have lived here for 40 years. Both house and garden are my joy. I have both what would be now called vintage, curtains , cushions etc mainly Colfax and Fowler and William Morris. They are my favourites .i think the best way of designing your home is to think of what you love rather than follow designers.

[@eileenmc8808]

That sounds so wonderful! We built our home in 1990 in the Queen Anne Victorian style but there is nothing like the character and quality of the real McCoy.😌

If you’re ever in Southern California I highly recommend a visit to the Huntington Library, Museum, and Botanical Gardens. It is the estate of Henry Huntington who made his fortune building railroads in the area over 100 years ago. Over the years he purchased works of art, manuscripts, and other artifacts from the declining English aristocracy at the time. And there is little doubt you haven’t seen the gardens before. Being near Los Angeles the gardens have been used in many films and television shows. A wonderful place my boyfriend and I love going to (and coincidentally the location of our first date!)

[@chefevilee9566]

Oh this is wonderful information! I am actually going to be at a conference in Carlsbad in 2022??? Anyway I had known of the Huntington library because they have facsimile books of the dead sea scrolls. I had even thought about going there to maybe see if I could view the books? But now I know I’m going there!

[@ChocolateAristocrat]

The Huntington Library and Gardens is a special place for my family and I also. My first visit was in the 80’s and my children enjoyed the Tea Room so much I eventually opened one in Seattle. Books, gardens and tea💕 = Heaven

[@chefevilee9566]

@@ChocolateAristocrat Well this is even more wonderful additional information! So when you say they have a tea do they have high tea?
Oh I just went and looked they sure do! So I will save my first high tea for that important business trip of my husbands!

[@davids6898]

As much as I’ve evidently made you all so excited I hate being the bearer of some bad news. The Tea Room is currently closed for renovations. They plan to upgrade the indoor dining space and modernize the kitchen, develop new restrooms, and create a pavilion on the eastern side which would open up to the Shakespeare Garden for exterior dining. It plans to reopen in 2022 but I do not know when. Assumably by the summer season but I don’t know how they can be so quick.

[@chefevilee9566]

@@davids6898 Well thank you for the update! As I stated I won’t be going until 2022 anyway. It’s a vectorworks Convention so it will take place in either April or November. I myself am hoping it’s November because of the whale watching season in Newport Beach California.
So I will put it on the list to check in on either month. 😀

For a "tea time" video, take us on a visit to your favorite antique store, an estate sale, or "garage sale" (that's what we call them in the states) and show us things that catch your eye (things you are drawn to )or something that you would consider purchasing to bring it new life in your collection of things.

At the beginning of my design career I worked at Scalamandre Silks, in NYC., where Jackie visited often. I was fortunate to meet her. Her apartment in New York was right across the street from The Met, where I would see her jogging wearing her signature large sunglasses. She was a very lovely woman, with such elegance. Looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday.

Classic, flowered chintz will never, ever go out of style. I really love polished chintz which is what I grew up with. It's so nice and cool for summer and it brightens up a room so much.

@Nicolas Fairford hello darling. I have noticed you are simply referring to the food ingredient as it's original name. I think this is smart. I never felt you were steamrolling with your vegan comments, however. I was strict vegan for 7 years, and then predominately plant based for 3 more. I became unconvinced. It's a personal thing, journey, and discovery. I don't regret it, because it's part of what makes me who I am now. I will never become unconvinced of being ethical, though. The poodle in my pic, Rembrandt, could not tolerate animal proteins. It took me a while to figure his irritable bowels out. But, I finally did, rest his soul. My remaining girl eats real, whole, raw food and thrives. Whatever works, and we mustn't shy away from trial and error. Cheers from California sweet man.

Hi Nicky, I love your channel and I have a sweet little story for you. I'm German but I've loved classical English interior style for a long time. Many years ago when my now husband was my new boyfriend we went shopping for Christmas presents. At a book store with a large foreign book section in Cologne I fell madly in love with the book by Roger Banks-Pye. Although it was out of his budget my boyfriend bought it for me and I perused this book hundreds of times... Fast forward 26 years, I happen upon your UA-cam channel and I so enjoy your videos and your beautiful home! When I saw today's caption I said to myself I bet that Nicky has the Roger Banks-Pye book in this video. I don't know what made me so sure, maybe the loving little arrangements you create around your flat? I'm so happy I found your channel, keep creating beautiful and inspirational videos please! Love from Germany, Uta
