The winter smoking room is my favourite room at Cardiff Castle, the beautifully painted walls with birds painted around the door are just beautiful.The inlay within the wood in the door is amazing.
William Burges had a team of exceptional craftsmen who worked on Cardiff Castle, as well as his usual team he employed local craftsmen, some had previously worked on Llandaff Cathedral.
William Burges visited William Morris in his new home Red House. Both men were passionate about Medieval architecture, design and craftsmanship.
The ceiling design is guilded and has signs of the zodiac within the design. Both Lord Bute and William Burges were very interested in the zodiac.
In the bottom right hand corner of the photo above you can see the sun being held
We were told by our tour guide that the devil was in the ceiling outside the smoking room to keep the ladies out!!

A really simple napkin fold for your Easter table! 🐣 We used a napkin ring but you could use ribbon or twine, whatever you’ve got! 🐰
Just fold the napkin into a triangle and roll up from the point until you can fold it in half to make the ears 🐇 You could put a little creme egg in there as an extra treat 🤎

The start of the Easter tablescapes this weekend 🐣 We cant resist a little rabbit napkin, so easy and so effective we can post a reel on how to do the napkin fold! 🐰 This is our pvc fabric in William Morris Brother Rabbit red which is perfect for on the table as it simply wipes clean so isn’t an issue for any spills 🧼
We know that seasonal tablescapes whilst looking amazing can often seem really expensive on Instagram so we wanted to prove that with a simple napkin fold and a few little inexpensive decor bits it can be wonderfully seasonal yet affordable and used every year - the carrots are from @poundland and the cute little sheep are from @sainsburys 🐑

Why wouldn’t we celebrate William Morris’ birthday with one of our biggest sales of the year! Hurry, it’s tonight and tomorrow only, take 20% off everything on our website with code; BIRTHDAY 🌿
Born on this day in 1834, William Morris was an incredible talent. His designs are as timeless and popular today as ever, so long after they were designed 🎨 He also was a poet, writer and socialist activist who was involved in the arts and crafts movement and worked hard to keep traditional British textiles, he opened his own mill, Merton Abbey Mills 🌿 there’s so many interesting aspects of his life that he seemed to live many lives at once, when you’re that talented it must be hard to pick just one passion! 🌿 Happy Birthday William, thank you for all the stunning designs we print here in the UK just as he was passionate about all those years ago! 🇬🇧
