Have nerves of steel? Decisive in your choices? Not a colour for the faint-hearted. Positively brave.......gorgeous isn't it?
The purple storefront of VV Rouleaux, no.... not in Paris. Two locations in London, England, one at 54 Sloane Street, the other at 102 Marylebone Lane. Known as the Chanel of ribbon and passementerie. Full of ribbons, trimmings, tassels, flowers and display decorations. 
People spend hours there.....obviously! They must mean days....
V Rouleaux owner Annabel Lewis has a bookRibbons & Trims - Embellishing Furniture, Furnishings and Home Accessories.
She forgot to mention gifts. You can see and order it here.

I certainly could spend days in the VV Rouleaux.It appeals to all the senses. Oh how I would love to stick a toe into the risk pool to have an aubergine room!

I would get so lost in that store! I don't think I'd ever want to leave!
ReplyDeleteThere is something so very regal about a deeply purple room such as that. When paired with the whites/creams and ivories, it truly makes a gorgeous space.
ReplyDeleteI love VV Rouleaux. Sometimes they have "carboot" sales at their kids' school. If you can find when and where, they're a treasure trove of VV leftovers!
ReplyDeleteThis place looks amazing, Sande. I also love your creation - so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBreathtaking! i love the deep purple color and i could stay in that place all day too. love the colors in your creation, beautiful as always!
ReplyDeleteGod Bless,
