So the winter room is classic and has a edwardian stone fireplace and we need to choose colours

The summer room for glitterfairy is modern and retro 50s pastel colours and modern materials ??

The thai room for me all pannelled walls and coffee walls and orange and purple velvet things everywere.
The deck for everyone is all trees ,sustainable wood & hammocks. Our very own THAI OZONE spa sancturary. Towells and teak !!space for mediitation , reiki and massage ?? Any music here?? or on one side for the massage bit , may be some glas sscreens so you can have candles there too , but not affect the trees and other therapies that Sibble will be doing alongside others who are practsiing.

The Yoga room for Sibble is yet to be designed !!

The nail and pedicure room , big high back chairs and tables ?? colours, themes, ideas needed for here!!!

Shall we have a chillout room ?? Dark purple and electric beds with blankets and dressing gowns and piped chill out music , organza nets to divide each bed area??

We need a special bathroom ??

A food room , for a huge buffet of all our faves ???

A library ??

An art & design studio draftsmen tables and easles and paint and stuff everywere???

Getting carried away now , but its fun !!!I want to go to this place every day !!!

You mentioned the yoga room lovely interior designer... sibble surely will have some inspiration for that... I like a wooded surround and space for the sun to shine upon us all.

Yes I wanted to leave that space for her to come up with her dream yoga enviroment , but it could just have glass windows on to part of the decked area. Must stop otherwise I get carried away and start designing the whole place myelf !!!!

If we are to live here forever perhaps we had better have a virtual creche - a perfect babyworld for the little ones and slightly bigger ones. Such baby estasy would be found there and big sleepy arms to siestas!!

Pappillon how are you today? which room are you in? At present I am in the summer room lying taking in the warm glow and hearing the drops of the waterfall feature in the corner. The sun in here is not harmful will not burn or give you cancer but will make your skin glow and you feel healthy warm and relaxed.

glitterfairy · 28/04/2004 12:06

I have just been swimming under the palm fronds that are waving gently in the warm breeze. What do you think of this water... so bouyant and relaxing.
I am very happy and feeling lovely and alive

glitterfairy · 28/04/2004 13:29

Papillon am in there with you and the water is cooling me after my session in the healing sun whihc has warmed my bones from the frozen north! THe palm trees are wonderful and I can hear melsys water feature and those wind chimes. Ok lunch over and back to work. Hiya melsy how are you?

melsy · 28/04/2004 17:45

HIya glitterfairy Im good today thanky you. Had a friend over with her 8mths babs. Was a good
afternoon , learn some new tips from her.

Just ahving a quick dip in the hot tub near the deck, siggghhhhhh can I sit here all evening and get some candles as night falls and a glass of wine !!!

sibble · 28/04/2004 21:00

have jsut dropped DS in the virtual creche where the options for activities today include yoga and a nature ramble - think DS is going to do the yoga.
Have my mat under arm and am off for a yoga class myself to wake me up... I see the room as very minimalist, wooden floors, whiter shade of walls (boring magnolia even), one whole wall pulls back and opens out onto the garden and trees for nice days. Another wall is mirrored to correct posture but has the option of muslin curtain over the top for meditation time or if people find it off putting, very soft lighting and piped music...that's about it. I would put flowers or plants in there in the winter at least but not good for people with allergies so maybe not....
Ahhhhhhhhh I feel chilled already.......... Afterwards I think I will have a ramble around teh garden with DS before a lovely lunch, DS can then go back to the creche and I will retreat to the therapy room for a massage, swim, spa and my nails done.... before home to DH to tell him all about our day.

sibble · 28/04/2004 21:01

On a semi serious note - this is a great site for ideas, this is so similar to what I would do if I could....creche and various facilities so women/mums can chill while the children are also safe, happy and learning too.
NO, I will do one day - be positive....

glitterfairy · 28/04/2004 22:03

Been for a walk in a bluebell wood this afternoon and wondered if we could install a permanent one in the garden also a waterfall. I will lug stones! My kids love yoga their grandad teaches them who has been to india three times to study. So they could join in as the big ones. They also dance as you know so could do some really nice free dance and song!
