DFS Capsule Collection: Doing Stylish, Smaller

Design for small spaces is a topic that’s close to my London-tied heart. Most of us city dwellers have to embrace what we’ll put politely as ‘petite’ homes and nowhere is that more prevalent in the UK than in London itself. When we moved here nearly five years ago there was no question we would…

How often do you open your home to people to enjoy good food and conversation? It’s something we love doing but always make a point of keeping things simple, otherwise we wouldn’t feel like doing it as much and after all it’s mainly about the company and getting to chat over food. Being sat around a…

Escape To Clifton For My 30th

I recently waved good bye to my twenties and had to come to terms with the fact I was moving into a totally new decade, one that sounded far too grown up for me! I’d ‘ummmed’ and ‘ahhhed’ about what to do for my 30th birthday. Everyone asked if I was going to have a…

What’s In The Box?

I don’t know about you but I’ve spent a lot of time lately, lusting after terrazzo everything. I was particularly in love with the technique when I visited Paris in March and between the wall in Cafe Kitsuné and the gorgeous table tops in Peonies Cafe, I knew I had to recreate something similar for…

Brand New Wedding Set

 Exciting news! I’ve finally designed and released my new wedding set. It’s been a while since I added to the collection which has frustrated me no end but as per usual it was a case of too many things to do and too few hours in the day, leaving it fall down that long list,…

The Art Of Simplicity At Home With Camerich

I get a lot of interior press releases piling up in my inbox week on week and to be honest I immediately bin most of them on first glance, so it’s so refreshing when I’m introduced to an interior brand where I naturally connect with the aesthetic straight away. Camerich is one of those brands…

I know I’m not alone when I say that flowers just make me so happy! You’ll notice my Instagram feed filling up with blooms as soon as Spring arrives, whether I’m snapping as I walk around the neighbourhood or buying myself a little treat bunch to liven up our home. As you can probably imagine…

Behind The Screen

Golly it’s been a while since my last behind the screen post! Perhaps that has something to do with a lack of the above?! I’ve actually had this post in mind for a while as it’s a something I get asked about a lot when people find out I work for myself, from home. I…

Grand 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…

Bringing our home to life with Sonos

Do you have a silent home? I don’t think I noticed quite how important it was to fill the space with music until we didn’t really have a means to do so. Nick essentially studied sound in his Music Studio Tech degree so with him came a quite decent set of speakers but they getting old…

Be 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…
