Heritage Home and Garden Buy from Terrys FabricsHelen Turkington's interiors shop in Dunville Avenue boasts the kind of achingly chic style that makes you want to tear your own home asunder and start afresh. blackout curtains disadvantagesIt comes as no surprise, then, that her period home is even more ramped up, more stylish: the fabrics whisper luxury, there's a subtle sheen to the silver greys, while the reflections afforded by the many mirrors, add a high-octane, almost Hollywood, glamour.battenburg lace shower curtain white What does come as a surprise is the admission from Helen that, as with the rest of us, she sometimes get it wrong. "I made lots of mistakes, you always do," she says in her no-nonsense Northern accent. "For example, I've just done a lighting course in London and if I were doing another house, lighting would be the priority.

I learned such simple, but clever, things such as putting directional spots on that chandelier," she says, pointing to the chandelier in her dining room. "The spots would hit the crystal and it would glisten. I'd put spots on the curtains, too, to emphasise the fabrics." These things are hardly mistakes, but Helen goes on: "Actually, I couldn't get my head around decorating the two main reception rooms at all. I can be indecisive when it comes to my own house. I put wallpaper up that I hated -- it was too safe -- so I decided to take it off. Then, two years ago, near my 40th birthday, my husband, Garvan, said: 'You've got to finish them,' and suddenly, in two days, I got everything together." Given all Helen has achieved in the past six years, the wonder is that she had time for her house at all. As well as opening her business in Dunville Avenue, Dublin 6 -- where she sells everything for the home, as well as doing contract work for private clients -- she's also had three children: Tilly, six;

And, she has just opened a second shop in Clonskeagh, in the old Wella building, called Helen Turkington Fabrics, where she sells silks, wools and various other materials for curtains, upholstery and soft furnishings. Few people are opening businesses these days but Helen is quietly confident -- after all, it's a business she was practically born into; her parents also had their own interiors business in Cookstown, Co Tyrone. However, from the sound of things, they never dreamt that Helen, who admits to having been a wayward teenager, would end up with her own business. "I went to boarding school in Coleraine and I was the worst pupil. I didn't go back after the O levels. My parents said: 'If you don't want to study, you better go to work,'" she recalls, laughing. One of four children, Helen was sent to London to do a cookery course at the Pru Leith Cookery School, which she loved. Following that, she got work making lunches for directors in the City, which she hated. She stuck it out for eight months before she found work in a completely different field -- one which led indirectly to interiors.

"I got a job as a girl Friday with an Irish property guy. He was mad, but we got on really well. I told him that mum and dad had an interiors company and he said: 'You might have flair, come and look at properties I have.' He was employing all the best, the likes of Nina Campbell and George Renwick, and I was going to the meetings. I was so out of my depth," Helen admits, "but he liked my ideas. I stayed four and a half years with him, and I absolutely loved it." During that time, Helen did various interiors courses. Then she returned to Northern Ireland, where she set up The Fabric Library in Cookstown, Co Tyrone, with her father. They then opened branches in Enniskillen, Co Fermanagh -- which they've since sold -- and Newbridge, Co Kildare. Helen met her husband, Dubliner Garvan Walsh, at a horse show in Millstreet, Co Cork 12 years ago and they settled in Dublin. However, she continued to work with her parents in the North until six years ago, when both Tilly and the Dunville Avenue enterprise were born.

She and Garvan bought their current home four years ago. "We lived in Blackrock first, then Ranelagh," she says. "I've always loved Rathgar, then we saw this house. Garvan went to the auction and we were lucky, no one else turned up." Dating from 1903, it was a villa-style building with two floors and no stairs linking them. It had been used as two homes. "It was absolutely horrendous. It needed a new roof, and all new floors and sash windows. Basically, all we had left were four walls." Now they have five bedrooms, all en suite, two of which -- the guest bedrooms -- are on the upper floor, along with the interconnecting drawing room and dining room, while downstairs there are three bedrooms, a TV room and a huge kitchen cum breakfast room. As always with old houses, there were surprises during renovation, some of them pleasant. Certain rooms, for example, appeared to be only 8ft high but turned out to have false ceilings. Helen had the ceilings raised and the coving friezes restored.

The rooms are furnished in mushroom, silver and purple, with the glamour quotient increased by the use of lots of reflections, particularly in the dining room, the walls of which are panelled and studded with mirrors. "I was working in London and I went to see a show apartment. I saw how the hallway was panelled and I decided to try it here." The mirrored dining table is a clever idea Helen achieved at minimum cost. "The table is MDF -- the cloth covering it cost more than the mdf. I couldn't get the table for 10 that I wanted, so I got two half-moons cut and joined them," she explains. The drawing room is papered in Cole & Son wallpaper, from their Patina Collection, in silver and chocolate brown, while the curtain fabrics in both rooms are by Lelievre. The carpets are Zoffany, as are many of the paints, all brands stocked in Helen's shops. In a complete contrast to the show-stopping rooms on the upper floor, the rooms on the lower floor are more relaxed. These include Helen's bedroom with its eight-foot, carved, antique French bed.
