Hello we are in the process of buying a house, it's a victorian terrace if that helps.

For the living room we are so far planning shelves either side of fireplace in white, the fire surround is also white and i will have a white framed mirror above fireplace.
At the moment we are planning f&b teresea's green as the colour on the fireplace wall.
We are probably getting some duck egg coloured sofas or biscuity colour.

The ideas I am struggling with is to whether to go with glass accesories or white accesories, such as chandelier/candlesticks/lamp etc.

Please help ladies, any ideas warmly welcomed!

I'd go for glass I think - otherwise you risk having too much white.

Id also go with a mix of glass and white or maybe some weathered oak - Have a look at Loaf and Swoon editions

I would go for glass too. My lounge is cream, duck egg and beige and I have oak furniture and glass "bits and pieces". I got some lovely chunky candlesticks from TK Maxx which are recycled glass and have a blue tinge to them.

Thanks for all your help, I'm feeling inspired! Slightly becoming obsessed with researching bits and bobs now!

If you have a TK Max or a HomeSense near you pop in, they have some great stuff. I am a little bit obsessed and pop in probably twice a month and they always have different stuff.
