Picture walls are really popular at the moment – collecting various photos, artwork and images together, bringing focus to a wall. A really cheap and easy idea to bring pattern and colour onto a wall is to frame wallpaper.
Either use old wallpaper left overs, possibly from friends / family, or order samples direct from the retailer [ these are usually free or at a small cost ].
Maybe there is a strong wallpaper you have used in one room and you want to use what’s left in a different way in another room.

For some great wallpaper choices check out John Lewis and Graham & Brown.

Subtle and elegant, and at £29 this beautiful mouth blown glass lamp shade is a steal from Made.com

We love it’s midcentury influence and the coloured glass tone is perfect. 

It’s smooth on the outside, but with a rippled effect on the inside it creates a lovely light effect. 

This shade would look great in a reading corner or clustered with a few of the same colour, or similar styles but different colours, from the range.
