Hello, welcome back. After a brief hiatus to recover from the content marathon that was the Christmas period, we’re back. I wanted to start off 2021 with a post I’ve been meaning to write for a few years now. I get asked a lot over on Instagram where some of the prints and artwork that …
As with all posts, this blog post contains affiliate links. I feel like I should start this blog post by saying sorry for being such a lousy blogger of late. The last blog I posted was way back in August, having just come back from Rome. In the months since life has well and …
This is a sponsored post produced in collaboration with a brand I genuinely love, Habitat. If you also follow me on Instagram you’re likely to have seen snippets of my bedroom over the years. The bedside table perhaps, or the side of the bed and vague hint of a window. It’s a …
When I last did an ‘Ask Me Anything’ Story on Instagram the most commonly asked questions were all about scented candles; ‘What’s my favourite scent?’, ‘Which brand is the best?’ and ‘Is it worth paying a little bit extra?’.

I don’t necessarily think it’s a bad thing, if anything for me it’s only made me more …
2018 is going to be the year of the good decision. I’ll be applying that logic to pretty much everything. It’ll be particularly prevalent within my home as I spend the year putting my disposable income to one side in the hope of being in a position to start looking at buying my first …
Like clockwork my Christmas tree always goes up on the first Saturday of December. It’s a ritual I’m very particular about and I take it very seriously. I’m going to warn you of this from the get go. The week leading up to Saturday I begin to dust off the decorations from their resting …
This is a sponsored post produced in collaboration with IKEA. I truly believe the concept of one’s eyes being too big for their belly can also be applied to interior design.
