I know a few people I’m in contact with have already visited the ‘Very Sanderson’ exhibition at The Fashion and Textiles Museum near London Bridge.
150 Years of English Decoration.
The exhibition was a real treat for the eyes. Pattern and colour coming at you from all angles. I loved the tulip wallpaper featured above, from Sanderson’s Vintage wallpaper range.
If this isn’t ‘chintzy’ enough for your taste how about the below…? Ooooh…. yes please!!!

The choices of fabric and wallpaper with Sanderson are amazing. The handpainted selection on show at the exhibition were out of this world. I fully recommend! £6.50 entrance fee (£3.50 for concessions) I don’t think is at all bad.
If you have already been, what did you think??
Well last night I wasn’t there just for the exhibition. I was there for the seminar…
