New Year in St Ives

Barnaloft_1963We spent new year in St Ives and it was great fun. Everyone ( yes, everyone) dresses up in fancy dress and wanders round the town.
As its our first time in number 11 since we bought it we were able to start to make it ours - we bought a new sound system and an ipod speaker system, some new plates and cups etc and started to change the furniture.

With some new art and some more new furniture on order it will be even nicer by the summer. We also replanted the window boxes on the town side - and then I found this picture (from Design Journal - click on the photo to enlarge) which shows the town side of our apartment as it was in 1965 (Number 11 is the one in the centre with its own stairs) . It also shows the Barbara Hepworth piece which graces the car park.

It's wearing well.
