Adds A Shot Of Oriental: A show stopping Mirror creates a focal point over the mantelpiece, while smaller pieces - candles, photos, vases - give the shelves a pretty, as well as practical edge. A bright cerise cushion adds a shot of oriental glamour and is tamed by the woolly grey cushion next to it - a perfect mix of comfort and contemporary style.
In the shot put a heavy metal sphere is propelled from a circle seven feet in diameter; four feet of its circumference—in the forepart of the circle—contains a toeboard four inches high. In this event the shot is not allowed to pass behind or below the shoulder, so that technically it is "put" rather than "thrown." A 16-pound shot is used in major masculine competition, such as in the Olympic Games, national championships, and intercollegiate competition; the 12-pound shot is usually used by males in secondary schools, and the 8-pound shot is used in feminine competition, including the Olympic Games. In the games the shot put is also one of the 10 decathlon events for men. A put of over 65 feet has been made with the 16-pound shot, and a woman has exceeded 56 feet with the 8-pound shot.
Kitchen windowsills tend to work hard, often crammed with bits and bobs, so a Roman Blind is perfect - you can draw it down as far as your accessories will allow. This one looks neat and adds another shot of warm colour to the room, helping it feel inviting and nicely offsetting all that yellow. |
