Jo’s place

Posted on Sat, 22 Dec 2007 by midcenturyjo

What a week! Work is so busy at this time of the year and Christmas cleaning is just as overwhelming as Christmas shopping. Today I took a little break from putting together the holiday reading guide to work in my little garden. Some of you may know that we’re suffering through a very serious drought in Australia. My home town is under level 6 water restrictions which means no hoses and only bucket watering of gardens 3 days a week for a few hours only. When we moved in the garden was dead.

Now there are signs of life and my biceps are a little bigger with all the bucket carrying. Of course there have to be some thrifted finds in this post. I did manage to find a couple of cute little pots which I planted up today and the sweetest tiny brass watering can. A lot of my garden is potted to conserve water and my garden beds are heavily mulched. Time to go back to sweeping the patio if I can.

Hugh Leslie

Leading London interior designer Hugh Leslie has a quintessential British style. There is a gentleman’s club, country home feel but not quite like any club or fine home you have seen. There is colour and humour and passion for fine living but with more than a nod to an essential comfort factor.
