A little while ago I came across a beautiful mauve themed room (also featured in "It's a Purple Christmas this year), I love the richness of the velvet sofa, the fabric's soft, subtle sheen against areas of matte velvet, similar to the patina of a worn antique mirror. I was immediately reminded of a beautiful Laura Ashley cushion I spotted a few weeks ago in their Newmarket store.
Laura Ashley have always been a part of my life, when I was living in York in the UK I could walk to my nearest Laura Ashley store and often popped down to see what new items had arrived and keep an eye on their trends. In fact I remember my kitchen in the UK had a little cherry patterned Laura Ashley paper in red and I had a small floral print in my bathroom in blue... gosh that was almost 31 years ago! Now I'm living in New Zealand and my nearest store is a car drive away but I still visit regularly to see what's new in their beautiful homeware. Laura Ashley have kindly loaned some products for my mauve inspiration and today I'm sharing them with you. Friday I'm featuring a Christmas table setting in purple and silver and some beautiful glassware from Laura Ashley so please visit again and be inspired.

What a lift the colour of these cushions gave to this corner of my room which was previously very neutral with beige and black cushions. I love the soft texture of the Eden throw and it's long silky tassel's
