When someone says ‘holiday’, what’s the next word that pops into your mind? I bet that more often than not that word is ‘rest’. We work hard for our holidays and start holiday countdowns, eagerly awaiting time away from the day to day hustle and bustle of life. Rest may look like sitting by a…

Bathroom Restyle With Habitat

Bathrooms are often neglected spaces. I don’t know about you but it’s usually the last place I give any attention in my home. As you’ll see below my bathroom was pretty bleak, particularly that very sad looking plant loitering in the corner! I recently decided to show my bathroom some love with the help of…

Copenhagen Part 1: Our Pad

If you follow me on any form of social media you’ll know that at the end of June we went to Copenhagen. It had been on our list of places to visit for so long that we were pumped to finally get there! We’ve had a love affair with all things Danish from afar, whether…

Styling The Seasons: July

Well there’s almost been too much happening this month to take in and yet it feels like a total blur and I actually can’t believe that we’re at the end of it already. After a very joyful post for June, July’s post is definitely the flip side. I was overwhelmed  with how blessed I felt last…

A Pocket Full

I’ve said it before and it’s true, I really do love organisation DIY projects. Maybe it’s because life feels so hectic most of the time that any small ways I can help curb the crazy is very welcome. This project can help you organise any part of your home really but my initial thoughts were…

Styling The Seasons: June

Well June is never reliable for weather in the UK and this time round it’s proving its not so stunning reputation to be valid. One minute I’m putting sandals on the next, tights and a waterproof but regardless I always like June as its my birthday month and who doesn’t love a birthday.

Make Your Rented House a Home

If you’ve read my blog for a while you probably know that me and my husband are not home owners, shock horror! I used to believe the lie society likes to tell that you have to own a home before you even consider settling down. I found it very refreshing to move from suburbia to London and no longer feel…

Workspace Goals

I’ve noticed that recently a lot of my DIY projects seem to be veering towards organisation. Perhaps it’s an conscious attempt to stop things spiralling into chaos or perhaps I’m developing more of an appreciation for things being ordered.  I have one of those ‘odd and ends’ shops near me. The kind that sells everything…

A Velvet Love Affair in London

I love where I live in Shepherd’s Bush but I have to say the area’s annoyingly slow on the uptake when it comes to cool and quirky cafes and eateries. Conveniently we live up the top end, bordering Chiswick which opens up an extensive array of options. If there’s somewhere new and exciting it’s nearly…

Styling The Seasons: April

April has gone by in a flash but just in the nick of time, I’ve managed to style a corner of my home for Styling The Seasons. I’ve been pretty disappointed to find myself still wearing a scarf and fur coat at the end of April, not to mention the brief snow interludes?! While I…

Studio Twocan’s Cement CeramicsChan & Eayrs London home Here’s a little slice of Sunday calm for you all. I’ve become increasingly doe eyed over the neutrals interior movement, craving a break from a harsher monochrome vibe to tones that are softer around the edges.
