Summary 2013: Interiors Progress

Welocme to 2014!
I hope you had a peaceful and wonder-filled Christmas time.

Let's start off by having a recap of Modern Country Style 2013. 
This is as much for me as for you! I love to look back each year to see what we've accomplished, before forging ahead with new plans, schemes and projects.

The year started off with the finishing touches to our Dining Room....which began life like this:


And magically metamorphosed into this:


We've been so pleased with the new and sparkling serenity of the room.

Then, the biiiiiiiiiiiig build of the year came....our builders were completely brilliant and worked valiantly through rain, snow...and on....and on....well into the summer.

The idea was to transform our thoroughly grotty shower room, which was tucked into the eaves, into a shower room haven and an office/guest room/living space...

Here's what we had to play with...


And now see the magic before your very eyes
without any of your stress building or money depleting! 
You lucky thing, you!


The beginnings of the shower room...


....which is now almost complete....


Just a few more accessories required to pull it all together....


All to be recorded right here...breaking news reported as it happens!

We've moved somewhat more slowly with the second room. It needs to fulfil so many requirements that I want to get it juuuuuust right!

Have you put your decorations away yet? I wait for the official twelfth night. I'd leave them up long after that, to be honest....I never tire of the incredible Good News of the season...

“The Christian gospel is that I am so flawed that Jesus had to die for me,
yet I am so loved and valued that Jesus was glad to die for me.”
Tim Keller

Now to pull together all the craftiness that's happened on these pages over the last year....

Modern Country Fashion Round-Up 2012

Before we dive headlong into all that 2013 has to offer, shall we take a moment to glance back over what has been an extraordinary year on the pages of Modern Country Style?

30 for 30 was a series I ran earlier this year, when I was five months pregnant: 30 items mixed into 30 different outfits over 30 consecutive days...phew! Just click on the outfit of your choice to be taken to that very post for more shots and details of the clothes. 


There they all are!

{All you eagle-eyes out there will have spotted that there are only twenty-five photos. 
That's cos we didn't take photos on five of the days...but I did still wear different outfits. Honest!}

And, to answer the question that so many of you have asked, YES, there will be lots more Modern Country Fashion a-coming your way, as well as the usual lovely mix of renovation, inspiration and creation!
