Morocco me – part 3

Ok ok, I think ol’ WP was just having a bit of a moment back there, things seem to be back to normal right now.  Maaan, Caribbean Living was seriously uggers for a minute or two, ha.

Ok, I digress……so back to the final Morocco instalment for this week folks (sorry Johanna, ahem), the handira wedding blanket, AKA the most blooming beautiful blanket I have ever set eyes upon – and I am quite an authority on blankets, believe me, we have an enormous (and growing) pile of ‘em from all around the world, but none of these beauties, drat.

handira1See??!  Blooming.  Beautiful.

So here are the obligatory swoonworthy piccies, I think I’ll let them do the talking today.

    Omg how AMAZING are these blankets?! I would be a little scared to ruin them though, they look so delicate !! ;)

  4. My head is full of sequins this year, of course, I do not know what happened, so are you reading minds, Elly? Because yesterday evening I bought a black little bit of sequins wool blouse and I thought: are sequins allowed in the house, also? I mean, can I decorate with sequins? Isn’t that too much and a kitsch?” But, well, you showed me today that: “NO, it is not too much if you bring just a little bit of bling bling sequins”
    So, welcome to my head, full of sequins! My favorite is that first bedroom!
    Have a lovely day!

    PS: You will look chic with a fur hat at 30 degrees Celsius in Singapore;)! I just hate you, really, always summer…pfffffffffff…….

    Hi Elly, sorry to hear that WordPress went haywire, hope everything is sorted out now. You really shouldn’t have introduced me to this blanket, because now I am going to be obsessing over it and wondering how I can find myself one. It is utterly gorgeous

  9. Sorry about the wordpress woes. But like you said, that blanket is beautiful and blooming, especially at the end of the bed.

  10. these are all so beautiful. i really want a blanket.

  11. I’ve wanted one of these for far too long. The envy now, seeing all these pics together, is nearly unbearable. Someday, someday… sigh. Gorgeous as always xxx
