Wednesday workspace: a chalkboard calendar


My tin of blackboard paint is still languishing in a cupboard somewhere, but this photograph has inspired me to make some blackboard progress. Brilliant, right? Lots of things to love in this scene - the Orla Kiely cushion, the classic black telephone - and I'm always a fan of the small additional side table in an office.
