A Life by Design: The Art and Lives of Florence Broadhurst | Siobhan O'Brien

pick

Went to an op shop before a library sale on Saturday. Here are the results. I love the Australian wallpaper designer Florence Broadhurst. You can see a cushion of mine with one of her prints on it in the background.

a brewery/florist/bookstore/dim sum restaurant combination (complete with a library full of books for patrons to use) is just as amazing as it sounds

Day 90: I found some old wallpaper (in a picture in a magazine) and thought it looked cool and retro 🤗

Bitten by Witch Fever: Wallpaper and Arsenic in the Nineteenth-Century Home | Lucinda Hawksley

so-so

This book is good for what it is. A quick read about the presence of arsenic in everyday items during the Victorian period, especially in wallpaper. There are many examples of this wallpaper interspersed between chapters. It is a visually lovely book, but I guess I feel like it was more style than substance.
