Good Morning and Happy Friday everyone – that is if you are reading on a Friday. Technically this post has to last all weekend so that may be a totally inappropriate greeting. Shall we just go with Hello and I hope everyone is well today? And on with the post – an interesting house for…
So in contrast to yesterday’s public service announcement, today is a sponsored post, as I wanted to tell you about my trip to LA to visit the latest project by MINI LIVING, which is exploring the concept of modern city living through a series of urban cabins. Each one is designed in partnership with a local…
Now it’s a moot point if you find this stuff boring or not but it occurred to me the other day that I recommend this online store to every single client I ever meet. And I have shopped for my own house from here on more than one occasion. And I assumed it was one…
Now I’ll admit I’m an old cynic and when I saw this book title: Happy By Design by Houzz editor Victoria Harrison I was a little sceptical. Surely decorating your house the way you want makes you happy? And there are people to help you with that. And I firmly believe, as do the Danes,…

Now I know some of you may feel that the tropical trend has gone on long enough and I might agree with you when it comes to pineapples and flamingoes but then there are the classics. And this is one of them. THE one perhaps. I wanted to write about it today because firstly –…
Sometimes you just see something and you think how fabulous is that? I want it and I must have it. Well I haven’t quite added it to cart yet but I think it may be only a matter of time. I’ve never really managed to buy the right pots for my (mostly fake) plants –…
I hope you will forgive me a little indulgence here but I am constantly blown away by gorgeous pictures featuring the book and I thought that this week, it would be fun to do a 10 Beautiful Rooms post featuring it. I always said I wanted it to be a pretty book and, only half-jokingly,…
