Spring Cleaning: Books, update


I just found this picture online of the private home
library in Newport where I used to work.


It's a stunner.  It looks like some of the table books were moved for the photograph and the shelves look more bare also.  I remember the story that the library panels came from a home in England.  The gilt plaster was a very nice, restored touch.

Beth, the home had 19 bedrooms! Or was it 16? 19 I'm pretty sure. Vast property. Lovely home.

What a lovely space! So cozy to sit and read a book. Have a delightful day, Kellie xx
