A Scent Tour Of Our Home with Yankee Candle
This is a sponsored post in collaboration with Yankee Candle I have a pretty acute sense of smell and my feelings towards a place or a person seem to change a lot depending on how said place or person smells.
Read MoreGrand Designs: Green Heroes
Last week I had the chance to go to Grand Designs Live and hear from Kevin McCloud himself, along with his panel of experts over breakfast. After gushing slightly that Kevin was only metres away we got down to hearing more about the pursuit of eco-conscious design for the home. It was really interesting to…
Read MoreBe Our Guest…
I’ve been gradually revealing our new flat to you guys as we’ve conquered each room one by one. The last room to the party is our guest bedroom which is still a huge novelty. We’ve never had a guest room since being married, always living in one bed flats. This meant we couldn’t really offer…
Read MoreNew Year: Let’s get organised!

Read MoreHouzz Home Tour
All photos by Chris Snook I’m very excited to have our flat featured on Houzz UK today! I love a good home tour myself, mainly because I’m nosey when it comes to interiors. I get great thrills going through the key hole and filling up on some interiors inspiration! I’m that creepy person that peers…
Read MoreStyling the Seasons: December
I feel like December has been 90% about Christmas styling, not that I’m complaining in the slightest. My Styling The Seasons post for December is light and bright with warm pops of colour and fresh sprigs of rosemary. I steered clear of anything dimly lit and cosy because that doesn’t actually suit the tone of my month thus…
