We take a lot of pride in setting up our room, and in so doing we try to keep it as uncluttered as we can, but we do like to have a few things hanging around to break up the space.

We use a variety of things such as curtains, strips of material, netting and fly strips

which are colourful and adaptable to different areas.

Another hanging piece which is bright without being obtrusive is a bead curtain. We seem to have gathered a few of these over the years and like to use them in different ways.

At the moment we have some framing the door as everyone comes in …

…and we used an old umbrella as the basis for another bead curtain arrangement suspended over our fishing game.

We find they are beautiful without being obtrusive.
