Brittania Themed Guest Room?

[Nix01]

Most of our guests come from outside of England so I'm thinking of a vintage Brittania theme.

We've bought a lovely white wrought iron guestbed with plain white Egyptian Cotton linens. The carpet is beige but all of the wardrobes and fittings are white.

I was thinking some bold dashes of the Union Jack or maybe iconic London images, the odd UJ jug for flowers, maybe a tray on the dresser for accessories etc, what do you think and where would you suggest I start looking for these items?

Not sure what your budget is but Next and M&S had some Union Jack and London homewares last year, I imagine they may have some again this year.

Thanks, will look

B&M also have these things.
It sounds like a good idea and can look quite nice (even though I'm not remotely patriotic!)

Thank you. I've bought a few odds and ends from eBay and its all starting to take shape :)

I'm not familiar with B&m, what does it stand for?

There's some great fabric available in London/Britain themes at the moment in my local fabric shop (green hill patchwork) of you're at all crafty.

I have no idea, it's literally called b&m

Thanks Jeni, unfortunately, I'm not really talented in that area :)
