Rachel ashwell kitchen5/19/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() I enjoy watercolours, oils, pastels and embroideries. ‘To me, art is anything that is pretty, that can be displayed and enjoyed and that stimulates emotions. ![]() Silk, velvet, linen and lace all cohabit if they have the same acceptance of age.’ I want these elements to create the tapestry of my home. I don’t want plastic surgery on my time-worn treasures I want to enjoy every crack, every layer of paint, every thread that hangs. I have chandeliers for mood, but also brighter secondary lighting from wall sconces or small, recessed halogen spotlights. I find vintage papers on the internet and if I love the pattern, I will buy as much as I can find.’ Rachel reveals her favourite details that help make a house a home.
