Inspiration. Travel. Life.
2020. What a time. Of all the things I didn’t expect to be doing, living through a global pandemic was one of them. Renovating our flat during said time was another. Our London loft conversion had been a three-year work in progress. Initial architect drawings. Many, many hours spent researching design. Tedious planning denials, tedious …
As we finally edge ever closer into the warmer seasons and the annual archive of the winter wardrobe, it seems perfectly justified to be planning all things dream summer style- even if the ongoing April showers think otherwise. What I lack in up-do aptitude my lovely friend Natasha at Asha Sime’s Doll House makes up …
Well March has well and truly sprung itself upon us. What better way to honour the beginning of a new season and all its festivities than with an abundance of bunnies and a flourish of flowers in a DIY Easter Centrepiece.
It’s that time of year again; the annual Christmas craft post where I release my inner Pinterest Queen and create something I have zero expertise in in the vague hope I can pass it off as being more seasonal success than Christ-mess.

I was met with a mixed (read-dubious) reception when I suggested making our own Marquee Light for the living room. Maybe because my previous experience in such a DIY was what some may call minimal to non existent. However, bored of hours spent scanning the internet for such a light at an affordable price I …
Another year another questionable choice to draw inspiration from Pinterest and replicate a Halloween pumpkin design probably originally completed by an artist or, as Tom suggested, Photoshop. Following on from last year’s Grumpy Cat I opted for a classic spooky rat for my main feature. Festive. I chose this because I like to willingly test …
This weekend was full of Autumn- pumpkin picking, falling leaves, blue skies and walks in the woods. I was in seasonal heaven (stay tuned for the video edition of this later in the week!) As you may remember from October posts from years gone by I love nothing more than embracing any excuse to decorate/ …
At my friends’ recent wedding the bridal party were tasked with the fun job of helping to create desserts for the day. The stipulation was simple- as long as it fed around 8 people and didn’t clash with another person’s dessert you were good to go. Excellent. Now being a Bridesmaid I took this responsibility …
