The Wool House - Somerset House

Excitedly, early Monday morning Kally of WoollenWood and I went on the bus to London to see...
The most amazing exhibition ALL ABOUT WOOL!! Complete heaven :)
I can not put into words how exciting and inspiring it was! Here follows quite a few photos of my favourite bits.


Remember - its ALL made from glorious wool!
I'd LOOOVE one of these :)

Each room in Somerset house was designed to show how wool can inhabit a space. This was my favourite room, I could quite happily move straight in! 
'Natural room' by Josephine Ryan. The arm chairs are upholstered with aran jumpers, gorgeous woven pieces on the walls and floors, wool and fleece everywhere and onions!

What Wool House said:
Wool is all about comfort and beauty. It is a fibre grown, not manmade, with an origin and integrity that has yet to be matched. Natural, renewable and sustainable it offers the most timeless and enduring quality to materials for many different lifestyle products for interiors, fashion, build and craft.
Diverse in use, colour and texture, wool truly shows its creative edge.




And a wool matress :)

Happy woolly dreams
