Hi, my name is Jane Edwards and I am the owner of Margot & Miller. I opened Margot and Miller in Chapel Allerton, Leeds in May 2010. This was born out of my passion for home interiors and interior design. My goal was to provide an affordable interior design service for busy people who want a lovely home but just don’t get the time to create this themselves. Today we provide exactly that for a wide range of people from busy parents, single professionals to property developers and businesses. I am friendly and approachable and most importantly I am a great listener. The key to success is to understand the taste, lifestyle and budget of every client. So, whatever stage of life you are at, we can help you to create a room or a home that you will love.

I was contacted by Alex and Steve after working for them in their home four years previously. read more...
They were moving to their forever family home and were in the great position of having one built. This is such an exciting time because it gives you a complete blank canvass, but at the same time can be incredibly daunting. New builds are not without their problems and hurdles and the amount of decisions you need to make can be overwhelming, from bathroom fittings to light switches to tiles to flooring down to hinges on doors.
Alex had wisely made an ideas book taking pictures from magazines and websites of the kind of look she wanted and because we had worked together before I already knew their style and the kind of things they would like. She had already chosen the kitchen and bathrooms and had a plan, sort of! When we got together my brief was to turn their new build into their home.
We started with items of furniture that were coming with them and planning around those and also provided lots of new items to complete the scheme
We provided everything from the colour scheme of the whole house. All the sofas, chairs, footstools were made to measure by our expert upholsterer and curtains, blinds and soft furnishings made and fitted by us.
The painting was done by the house building company then we stepped in at the end to wallpaper the bedrooms.
We used fabrics from various companies, the majority being Sanderson. It has worked beautifully for the classic look in the sitting room and a more contemporary feel in the kitchen teamed with Clarke and Clarke’s classic stripe.

I have worked with the owners of Tresanton over the last eight years on three properties. read more...
They are very busy, both working full time in their own company which leaves very little time for them to spend looking for things for their home. They have their own teams of workmen for every aspect of the house so my brief is to take care of all the colours, flooring and soft furnishings bringing the home together
This being the third property I have quite a few pieces that I am familiar with and need to work with.
When we started on this project the kitchen and bathrooms were well underway so we then needed to look at the overall colour scheme for the house, flooring including carpets and options for the busy living areas which need to accommodate two teenagers and two dogs.
There was existing furniture to be used in the kitchen living area and family room so we provided bespoke furniture for the sitting room and bedrooms including sofas, footstools, headboards and chairs.
We made and all the curtains and blinds and soft furnishings including cushions, bed throws and light shades.
This is an ongoing project as we are now looking for just the right pieces to complete the scheme.

Footstools
"Dear Jane, I really enjoyed getting my bedroom done. I prefer it to my old room. It looks much prettier now that the colours blend in with the material on the blinds. Thank you so much. Love Molly x"
Molly
"Jane and the team provided a fantastic service when we needed roman blinds/curtains for several rooms. Providing some great options in response to a very vague brief. The initial home visit was really helpful to determine whether blinds or curtains would best suit the space. The mirror we ordered looks fabulous and it is a great focal point in the bedroom."
"It is a pleasure to work with Jane. Margot and Miller offer a great personal service. Over the past 12 months Jane has helped us transform a renovation project with fabulous curtain and soft furnishing solutions. The advice has been great and Jane has always helped us in making the best design decisions taking into account both the aspiration for the look and the feel balanced with the budget. Standards of workmanship on the blinds and curtains has been second to none."
Tim Richardson - Head of Store Design - Mamas & Papas
"Jane provided a first class service at all stages throughout our kitchen & living room refurbishment. We involved Jane from the outset to help us pull together the look and feel we wanted to achieve. Jane was excellent at interpreting our ideas and tastes and turning them into the finished concept. At times it was scary as Jane was able to speed up the decision making process, quickly bringing together the finished look. However we were able to trust Jane fully and had total confidence that the end result would look great (and it did). We would highly recommend Jane's services."
"I would not hesitate to recommend Margot & Miller. I have used Jane's interior design service now for several years. We have had made to measure blinds, wallpaper, curtains, accessories & soft furnishings over the years from her. We have been given some great ideas for our home, everything we have had from Jane has exceeded our expectations."
June Solloway
"Jane has been an absolute god send to me. I first used Jane to make me a pair of curtains for my living room.
Since then she has helped me to create a look i would not have thought possible. Her help and guidance has been invaluable.
I cannot recommend Jane highly enough and I am lucky enough to now call her a friend..."
