styling the seasons: May
10 days in and I’ve finally got around to May’s styling the seasons post. I actually put it off this month as I really wasn’t sure what to do. After having the pretty flowers from Bloom & Wild to style last time and then judging all the beautiful entries for April, I wasn’t sure where to…

…And breathe! The bank holiday weekend is here! I am in fact working today, leading the very first two brush lettering classes open to the public with Quill London which I’m really looking forward to. Although I’m rather looking forward to a work free Sunday and Monday too! To celebrate, I’m running this awesome giveaway with…
Read MoreSugar & Cloth DIY Leather Hexagon Tray
I’m very excited to reveal that I’m now a Sugar & Cloth contributor…abundant ‘yays’! I’m so pleased to jump on board as I’ve literally followed Ashley’s blog for so long and I’m a big time fan of all her imaginative DIYs. You can have a ball looking through that DIY back catalogue of hers and pinning until…
Read MoreSpeedy DIY
Now I know I often say how quick my DIY tutorials are and that’s not a lie but this one really is the quickest of the bunch. I honestly made this in 5 minutes…it’s not just phrased like that because it sounds catchy! I’m always on the lookout for new necklaces but particularly those that…
Read MoreNew work & the Etsy Wedding Fair
Good news, I’ve finally gotten / made a moment to add my brand new wedding set to my Etsy shop and it’s feels very Summery indeed! Meet ‘Watercolour Meadow’. I fancied creating another floral design but this time looser and fully designed with watercolour and ink. I had such a fun day creating the original…

A still very sleepy good morning to you! I’m very excited to bring you this DIY tutorial I did for Design*Sponge. I was obviously ecstatic to flex my DIY muscles for such along standing design pillar in the blogging world. Grace is such a talented curator and maker! If you’re bored of the same old…
Read Morewebsite design, yes please!
Lot’s of people ask me who designed my blog / website and I can merrily say through all my branding shake ups and indecisive whims, it’s been my husband all the way. Whilst the actual designed elements have always been my doing, he’s made my web dreams come to life! He also designs totally from scratch…

It’s time for some Friday freebies to draw the working week to a close. It’s been such lovely weather here after the last few weeks that I’ve taken my camera out and about a bit more. I’m really enjoying capturing all the plant life nearby. It seemed silly not to make them into desktop wallpapers for…
Read MoreGathered Cheer Social
A few months ago you may remember me posting about the launch of my pal, Ruth’s new blog and website site designed by my husband and I. It’s called Gathered Cheer and was the start of her new little venture to do exactly what the name suggests and that’s gather like minded people to have fun, collaborate and cheer each…

Last time I talked about how I trained in art and design and what I learnt along the way. I said that next up would be how I made the jump to freelance but when I sat down to write I realised that I couldn’t really go there without having first talked about blogging. I wouldn’t…
Read MoreIkea Bedside Table Hack
Happy middle of the week! As promised I’m bringing you the Ikea hack I talked about in my bedroom update and all you bargain babes out there are going to love it. I found this Ikea side table going for £9.00 and was immediately captivated. Looking at it in the before it really doesn’t look…

Happy Easter weekend guys! I’m carrying on from my bedroom update post, where I promised the ‘how to’ for this DIY no weave wall hanging. There are some beautiful woven wall hangings out there but as I’ve said before, I’m a little impatient and want a similar result but quicker. They’re also pretty pricey to…
Read Morestyling the seasons – April
I’m very excited about this month’s Styling The Seasons as it’s just a little bit special. Styling the Seasons is Katy and Charlotte’s monthly project to encourage each of us to take a little time to think about the new season and to style a space in your home inspired by what that month means to you. It’s…
Read Morecoming home
Prompted by Hive’s Coming Home campaign, I’ve once again been thinking about what I love coming home to. Last week I shared a recipe that always makes me want to run home and gobble it up. This week I was having a little ponder about what I love to come home to when I’ve been away for…

There’s nothing quite like coming home. Agreed? I love going out and I also love getting away for a break sometimes, but there’s something really nice about arriving back home again from wherever you’ve been. Being out a lot actually makes me crave home and all the little comforts that come from your own space…

Last week I had the opportunity to go to a dinner hosted by the team at Habitat and Birchbox to celebrate their collaboration this March. Now for those of you who, like me happen to be new to Birchbox then I’ll explain. It’s a monthly box full of goodies in sample sizes so you can…

Time for some new free desktop wallpapers and it seemed only fitting to bring in some Spring flower vibes! Hopefully having these on your screen will brighten up your day. I love a bit of watercolour and I’m hoping to perhaps get a bit of time over the Easter break to get my paint palette…
