VINYL WALL STICKER
I love the list of family values that features on the kitchen wall in the home of Aliya and Ajit Nedungadi (p128, July 2015). Do you know how they achieved this? BARBARA REED, BY EMAIL
This is a vinyl wall sticker and a number of versions of it are readily available online, including the In This House wall sticker by Parkins Interiors (01643 709278, parkinsinteriors.com). It comes in a choice of 28 different
colours and measures H100 x W58cm, £24. The company also offers a personalised Family Rules sticker (pictured), which enables you to lay down the law! You can provide up to 10 of your own rules and the sticker is again available in 28 different colours, H120 x W58cm, £25. Alternatively, if you would like to try your hand at a completely bespoke message, contact Vinyl Lettering (020 7096 1229, vinyllettering.co.uk), which quotes around £48 for a design measuring H120 x W50cm.
POM POM TRIM
The trim on the blind in Rebecca and Andrew Doyle’s kitchen (p126, July 2015) caught my eye and I wondered if you know what it is? BECKY GALBRAITH, GUILDFORD
Perfect for enlivening window treatments, cushions and even bedspreads, this classic pom pom trim below is from Susie Watson Designs (0844 980 8185, susiewatsondesigns. co.uk). It comes in 17 colourways, including a plain ivory, and costs £15m. VV Rouleaux (020 7224 5179, vvrouleaux.com) is another good source for trimmings and sells a bobble fringe in a choice of 13 plain colours, £9.25m.
BUTTON-BACKED COMPACT SOFA
When I saw the small sofa in Lara Wilkins’ family room (p43, August 2015), I knew it would be perfect for beneath the window at one end of my narrow living room. Can you find out where it is from? ASHLEY MEPHAM, BY EMAIL
Lara’s neat Bath two-seater sofa with coloured buttons and gold studs came from Graham and Green (020 8987 3700, grahamandgreen.co.uk) but it is now discontinued. For an alternative compact buttoned sofa, have a look at the small Gertie sofa (shown above in Thatch house fabric) by Loaf (0845 468 0527, loaf.com). It 16 | 2 5 B H N OV E M B ER 2015
comes in a variety of different fabrics and measures H87 x W155 x D85cm, from £1,195. Sofas & Stuff (0808 1783211, sofasandstuff.com) also has a neat button-backed sofa called Benbecula, which again comes in a wide choice of materials and colours. It measures H83 x W160 x D83cm, and costs from £1,513.
