Preparing our renovation for winter
Now is the time that we should be getting on with the fitting out of the house, right?
Wrong. Well, sort of.
I crave that feeling of pulling into the driveway (that also doesn’t exist yet) and seeing a calm, collected arrival. I started planning the front garden design before the bathrooms!
We had two lights planned, one either side of the front door, from the beginning. And a classical, but streamlined approach seems to be the right way forward for the house. It has a little bit of Georgian grandeur, with a lot of countryside rusticity.
There’s a good selection out there now, with Pooky offering a good price point to quality ratio, plus Jim Lawrence (and others) at the higher range. And everything in-between! Scroll down to see my top picks out there right now (some affiliate links).
1. Single brass carriage light: £195
2. The modern, classic lantern: £160
3. A little more detail in multiple finishes: £185
4. A pretty light for a porch at a good price: £45
