Interior Designers CHRISTMAS & SUMMER Fireplace
GRATE arrangement

I really don't want to sell this set, as quite special, but have no hearth grate to put it into! '-(

Some cones are commercial with tinted ends - gold sparkly paint on them. Some just have highlights of gold paint. Looks lovely.

These are great with tealights, or tiny candles in Holders- give the effect of an open fire, in summer. Romantic!

Also some either side of the grate, sitting in little candleholders

XMAS TIME- add the red candles- looks great when unwrapping present

SUMMER TIME- can swap the red for the gold with gold or white candles. Lovely at night. Put some either side of the grate as well.


1 set of dainty natural birch twigs & pinecones- some GOLD TWINKLING highlights for Open Fire Grate- some tinted gold/sparkly

Included-
1 set from an open fire grate -
- fine real dried birch twigs- you put them in first
- then layer:
- 1 very large cone (250 x 150)
- small branch with cones cluster (340 x 170)
- 3 x GOLD tinted & 2 gold SPARKLY cones
- 11 other decorative pine cones- various sizes
- 6x small gold flowerpot candle holders, with 6 Red Berry scented tea lights - 10 hour burning.
- 6x small candle holders with red berry scent candles
You can use the gold or red candles in between the arrangement or on the sides of the hearth. It gives a lovely effect.

I ALSO HAVE ANTIQUES/PERIOD PIECES -
- WASHER BOARD for a laundry- antique
-IRON- black - Mrs Potts Sad Iron, no handle. Good for doorstop
- Mahogany Hall table- small - handcrafted with rope edge in Onehunga

Strong Queen wooden Bed supports - joined with dovetail and fancy screw system

Shery from Onehunga

My daughter left these, when she went to Australia to live.
I will have to cut them up, and throw them away, if not find a home for them '-(
Such a waste.

Part if a bed frame, I think?

Look good quality

It’s spring, plants and flowers are going all out blooming around here. It would be nice to knock and let us know if you want to pick flowers in anyone’s property, instead of just trespassing and helping yourself to the flowers we’ve grown🤦‍♂️.

Be nice and just knock on the door to ask for permission.

I’ve allowed quite a few numbers of people coming in asking if they could help themselves to the flowers, so just please please please do not just trespass and help yourselves to the flowers randomly and helping yourselves to them without even asking!!!

Best part is am at home and they are aware am looking at them at the window🤦‍♂️
