Stockings Hung By The Fire
That time of year is upon us and this Christmas we are no longer two but three! It’s Maggie’s first Christmas and while she ain’t going to remember a single thing, I still want to make it special and start new traditions. One of those has to be her very own stocking to fill. I…
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…

What a week! Two days were taken up with a yucky medical procedure and recovery which I totally put a brave face on but may well be scarred with the painful memory swimming around in my head for life. The week then wrapped up with my phone being stolen, not ideal in any way shape or…

Making a gingerbread house has always been lurking somewhere on my Christmas list of things to make. I’ve literally never got around to it before now which was all thanks to Biscuiteers who supplied me with this gorgeous gingerbread house kit. It was as if they read my mind! I took my first trip to…

Photos by the Laura Ashley team You may have seen by my instaspamming that I was invited to join some other lovely bloggers at Laura Ashley’s Handmade Christmas a week ago.

From right to left… *December was kicked off with a cute and edible blogging social organised by my pal Aspiring Kennedy and held at Biscuiteers in Notting Hill.

John 3:17 // Original photo from The Collective Quarterly Why are we celebrating? Do we ever really stop to think for long? Today we celebrate God breaking into this troubled world with a plan to save us from ourselves. He stepped into human history; a real living, breathing, feeling man, destined to live the perfect life…

In amongst all the frills and thrills of Christmas day it’s easy to lose sight of what we’re celebrating, when in fact it’s the best news ever to hit this world. God came to this earth as a man, giving up the glory of heaven for a humble life as a human named Jesus. He…

I was recently asked to design a flyer for Aberdeen University and Robert Gorden University Christian Union’s carol service. I pretty much had free reign, which always means more thinking time to start with, but much more fun in the end!

I know I said I wouldn’t be back for a month but I’ve been designing an advent calendar on and off for a little while and thought it made a whole lot of sense to post this before advent started, incase you want to have a go at making it. I decided to well and…
