- Join me as I take you on a tour of our living room.
A few people commented and asked to see. I love the room and I hope you do too.
Most of the furniture is from Multiyork who, sadly, no longer exist. But the rug is from Designer's Guild and almost all the accessories are from TKMaxx. My favourite shop for picking up a bargain!
A few people have commented on the paint colour - it is a Valspar at B & Q, dupe of Farrow and Ball Oval Room Blue (I say Billiard room blue in the video..... eek). Sorry for any confusion.
So cosy! Look forward to seeing it at Christmas!
Thank you. I can't wait to show you what I do at Christmas xx
What a lovely room. I love the wall color. I love room tours so thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much 🤗 x
Helen you have a lovely sitting room love the colour thanks for showing us around xx🌻
Thank you xx
A beautiful room! Thanks for showing us round. I’m a big fan of tk maxx too x
Thank you, it's my pleasure x
Love the muted colours, very restful to the eye…like you, I prefer unmatched furniture, thanks for showing us around.
You’re welcome 😊 xx
Hi Jo
Me again 😀 another great video so thank you 🙏 yet again I feel another connection I too love the Isle of Wight we had so very many happy holidays there when I was growing up 🥰 and still now as my sister lives on the island 😍
Hi Jo, that's lovely xx
A beautiful room Helen. I would not have painted a whole room in that colour but you have made it work beautifully. I think it would be such a calming room to sit in. You have also had some great buys from T K Max. I really love the side and coffee tables they are very functional but elegant and the same time. I would love to be able to pull colour together the way you have instead of playing safe!
Thanks so much! 😊 very kind of you to say so xx
Lovely room, very tasteful.
Always loved Multiyork, my sofa etc is now here in Turkey with me, years old but still great!
So good - it's such a shame, but at least we have ours. xx
It looks so nice and cosy. Can’t wait to see it at Christmas
Thank you. It's creeping up fast! xx

Hi Helen,
Lovely room.
I wanted to show my husband the video of your stunning garden cabin but I can’t seem to find the video?
We’re looking to do something similar and was wondering if you built yours from scratch or purchased the shell?
Thanks Julia
Hi Julia, thank you. We bought it but chose the dimensions and how we wanted the spac divided etc and the team came down and erected it all in a couple of days on a base that we had put in. Hope that helps. Link below. xx

Thank you! 🤗xx
pottery bowl with the sea gulls is so pretty, cozy room to relax in!
Thank you. He's a local artist. xx
Oooh I’d happily go shopping with you Helen, you’ve got great taste!
We left the uk almost 3 decades ago, but when we lived in England we had Multiyork sofas. Great quality. Didn’t know they’d ceased trading, what a shame.
Never been into a TKMaxx, it started after I left.
Thanks for the guided tour. Regards Karen
Hi Karen, thank you. It is a real shame that Multiyork went bust, they were one of the best furniture stores around. Where do you live now? xx
Such a cosy room! I painted our bedroom walls in a similar colour and love it..such a difference from off white gives it depth. Thanks for showing us round I too love a nosey 😄
Thank you xx
Hi you have a beautiful room thanks for letting us see it. I love the colour blue.
Thank you! 🤗 I'm glad you like it xx
Hi Helen thank-you for the beautiful room tour I found it very unique in it's lay out & theme & the color was wonderful. reminded me of a room that you would find in an old country manor house (this description is an appealing a/c - not mean't to offend I love this room .
Thank you very much. Not in the least offended xx
You are becoming a friend. Thanks!
My pleasure xx
lovely room . Cozy and welcoming . Love the colour on the walls.
Thank you! Glad you like it xx
oh Helen love your excellent taste your room is gorgeous x
Thank you very much xx
Hi Helen - love watching your channel and how funny you are - quick question please - would you mind sharing the company that reupholstered your sofa please? I live in the Dorset area and also a Helen - thanks in advance 😊 -
Hi Helen from UK. I'll have to dig around and find who we used. I can't think off the top of my head. xx
That’s such a great idea with the blind Helen…. Your room looks lovely…so cosy ❤
Glad you like it! xx
So beautiful!
My favorite color is blue.
I decorated my whole kitchen dining room area with blue & white based off of the Royal Daulton Moonlight Rose.
We live in the states and it is nearly impossible to find pieces as they say it is no longer being made. So I treasure the set I have.
That's great, sounds lovely x
I LIKE YOUR HAIR LIKE THAT 😃🥰🤩
Thank you xx
Hi Helen , love your sitting room , it looks beautiful, just my taste. Can’t wait to see what u do in there at Christmas time 🎄 You have some very lovely things.
My husband is a carpenter too, very handy to have around the house !
Thank you very much, it is handy, but you have to be patient, well I do! xx
I loved that you called it your sittings room which as I do. I hate the word lounge as this is something that you find at an airport.
I absolutely enjoy watching your channel. Thanks so much
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you xx
Thank you for sharing your room you and I have a lot in common. I love blue and an size 18 dress and have 3 grandsons no wee girls but two grown up girls.💚☘️💚

Thank you. It's a Valspar paint (B and Q)copy of a Farrow and Ball paint called 'Oval Room Blue'. xx
You have a beautiful home Helen, so calming and peaceful. You have great taste and those lamps were a steal 👌 Tk max has a treasure trove of wonderful items and many an hour I've spent in there. Have a fabulous weekend lovely lady 🌟
Thank you! You too! xx
Fine big room Helen, you did a great job on it. Very restful. Tks.
Thank you! 😊 XX
Love the wall colour, we’ve just had the whole house repainted, I ended up not bothering with the feature walls I’d provably planned as I just couldn’t decide! Maybe I can get some guidance when you next visit 🤩
Thank you Sarah. Looking forward to it xx
So very chic ...thanks for the tip about the paint, lovely video
Thank you very much xx
I’m using valspar paint at the moment myself and l have to say it’s the best paint I’ve ever used and half of the price of Farrow and Ball! Lovely tour thank you Helen xxx

Very homely and stylish ..I bet it smells lovely aswell 🥰
Thank you and yes it does.... thanks for watching xx
Loved this! Even though I watched it the day after! I have to laugh at some of the questions that been asked!! Even the question someone asked ‘Would you go blonde again! your hair is a lovely colour, so don’t go there! I used to be blonde and in lock down, I decided to go natural 😮 and it is a nice shade of grey now, so I would never go back! I love your blogs as you are so honest! Look forward to the next one! xx
Glad you enjoyed it. xx
Gorgeous decoration and colour choice. Thank you for sharing your lovely home. Clever hubby too !
You are so welcome! xx
Lovely room Helen. We have Multiyork sofas we really love them getting new covers is on my list as we are renovating our new home not decided what colours we are using in living room yet
Hi Marion, I looked everywhere for replacement sofas but the quality just didn't match. They are wearing really well considering they are 15 years old now. I bought the fabric myself online and then got an upholsterer to make fixed covers. Very happy with them. Good luck in your quest. xx
@@Helenmaryjo Lovely room. I have my late parents Multiyork 3-seater sofa and two armchairs which are now at least 28 years old and still going strong. Desperately in need of new covers as still with the two originals but otherwise still brilliant and the most comfortable seats I've ever sat in. Was gutted when Multiyork went down, even going as far as trying to find out what happened to the crafters in Thetford. A great loss and you are right, there is no retailer to replace them.
Love love the wall color!
Thank you Lora, I'm not bored with it yet. xx
Have a great holiday Helen. Look forward to more videos when your back ❤😊
Thank you xx
You have a lovely home helen, 🌹
Thank you! 😊 xx
Too many different shades of blue for my liking
Thanks
