Rounding up the very best in interior design today
You may have noticed from quite a few of my product round-up posts that I’ve always been a bit of a fan of MADE.COM (affiliate). Ever since I first discovered MADE.COM back in 2010 and interviewed their co-founder Ning Lee in 2011, I have been a big fan of the company and the products that
The Denby Studio Blue Casual Dining Collection is a hand-crafted range of ceramics perfect for al fresco dining.
With all this summer sun and outdoor entertaining we’ve been doing lately I have been in my element. Having a beautiful garden space where we can welcome guests is such a novelty. We live in such a tiny little flat that entertaining inside is just totally impractical. It’s big enough for us and the kids
I absolutely love BBQ season. Now that we have a garden that is suitable for entertaining, we do it at every opportunity throughout the summer. Pretty much every time the weather forecast tells us it will be a lovely sunny evening, we call up our friends or family and get the wheels in motion. We
Natural materials is not a new trend I’m predicting by any means, however it is a strong trend at the moment so I figured it deserves its own post. I kind of covered it a little in my post about the Global Nomad trend, but the trend for natural materials in interiors could stand on
This post is the second post in my new series Where to Shop where I introduce you to some of my favourite homeware retailers. The first post featured Oliver Bonas and in today’s post I want to tell you all about a Danish retail chain called Søstrene Grene. The story of Søstrene Grene began in 1973 in
How is it midway through April already. January and February felt like the longest months I’ve ever experienced, probably due to the fact that we didn’t have a summer or autumn/winter holiday. In fact, the last time we went away on holiday was last April when we went to visit my husband’s family in Poland.
In my hunt for the most stylish candle holders around, I came across a real beauty from Ferm Living. When I was on the website I discovered the beautiful new Ferm Living SS 2018 Collection and I fell in love immediately. Ferm Living is one of those really aspirational home decor brands. They are instantly recognisable
I have the weirdest relationship with candles. I love how they look and I love the soft glow that they emit. I often find myself lusting over beautiful candle holders. However, I don’t really like burning candles in my own home. Firstly, I have small children so it would be far too dangerous to have
It’s Friday and you may have noticed that things are looking a little different around here. I am so pleased to share my redesigned blog and branding with you. I hope you like the changes that I’ve made and that you can still find your way around. I’m still making tweaks here and there so
Photo by Annie Spratt on Unsplash For years and years, my husband and I lived with no photographs or art work on our walls. (I’ve explained before about my previous inability to commit to choosing artwork). We just never got around to putting up any nice photographs and it’s not that we didn’t have nice photos to display,
*Faux Plants from Cox & Cox* Have you already decided on a Mother’s day gift? If not, you’d better hurry up. Mother’s day falls on March 11th in the UK this year so you don’t have long to get something sorted. And don’t forget deliveries could take longer depending on how badly your area is
Happy Monday guys! Today we’re talking about fringing in interiors. As I’ve explained here before, I do like to share all sorts of interiors trends with you guys, but that doesn’t necessarily mean I like them myself. I can appreciate them for what they are of course and the reason I feature them here on
Copper Planters from Audenza Around about this time last year, I wrote a post about how I deal with the winter blues and one of the main ways I like to tackle the dark and dreary winter days is to bring more greenery into my home. I’ve already managed to smuggle 5 new plants into our
I love coming across really talented individuals who are from or who are based here in Devon. From my time working on magazines I became accustomed to the design scene being very London-centric. That is, understandably, where everything seems to happen. But over the past few years I have noticed a lot more creative activity
Over a decade ago, Canadian native Lesley Pennington upped sticks in favour of a house by the water in stunning Sweden, and in that house she bought herself a standard IKEA sofa. But that sofa was not quite the personalised look that Lesley wanted for her home, and it was from this thought that Bemz
Can you believe we are almost done with November? This year has gone so crazy fast, I’ve been hanging on by the skin of my teeth, just muddling through and doing my best impersonation of ‘adulting’. When it gets to this time of year I always think to myself that I probably should put together
You guys, the last giveaway I ran was hugely popular, the most popular ever in fact. I love doing giveaways for you as I feel like it’s a great way to reward you for being such loyal readers and coming back time and time again to check out what I’m writing about. If you were
I’m not a big animal person as I’m actually allergic to animal fur so when it comes to pets I have to keep it simple. We have a Syrian hamster named Fritz and that is it. Until recently, I’ve been quite pleased that we don’t have cats or dogs as I’ve never really come across
They’ve done it again guys!! Look at this little stunner from Brabantia. You’ll be forgiven for not knowing what it is at first glance because it has been designed in such a way that it is not immediately obvious what it is. But I guess I kind of gave the game away with the title
I am so excited to share today’s post with you guys as this is one of the coolest things in product and home design that I have ever seen. As soon as I heard about the LYFE levitating plant pot I was desperate to try it out so I was over the moon when NOXU
I’ve recently been getting back into Twitter a lot more and I’ve been reminded just why it is my favourite of all the social media platforms out there. I find it so inspiring and also the best place for networking and discovering new brands. My recent design find thanks to Twitter is a really funky
I have wanted a terrarium for a long time now. What has put me off though is the fact that they are often sold empty, leaving the buyer to fill them themselves. This is all well and good assuming that you know how to fill a terrarium and what to put in it. For people
When I first found out I was pregnant back in 2013, I couldn’t wait to decorate our baby’s new bedroom. However, I needed to go gender neutral as my husband and I didn’t want to find out what gender our baby was until arrival day. I was almost certain we were having a boy but
