I was super excited when Oliver Bonas set me a challenge to style my very own bar trolley. (Stay with me on this post, as I have a special bar trolley styling surprise for you too.) Anyway, back to why I was so excited. Firstly, I’ve always wanted a bar trolley […]
It may still be January, and despite a light sprinkling of snow today, Spring is in the air for me. Why? you may ask. Quite simply because I’m starting to see Tulips being sold everywhere. To me, Tulips signify impending Spring and bright optimism. Have you ever bought a gorgeous bunch of […]
Christmas may be over, but the season of gifting never ends. Valentine’s day is round the corner, then there’s Easter, and the list goes on. I love shopping for gifts, so this is music to my ears. However, it’s also lovely to be the recipient of a surprise gift. There’s […]
I am honoured to have been picked by Motorola UK to be one of their industry experts at their Moto Design school launched today in London. As I couldn’t make the physical pop up event, I have produced content here and on social media to run alongside it. Hope you will enjoy the […]
This weekend has been both colourful and busy. A few weeks ago, I was asked by both the The Joy of plants, part of the Flower Council of Holland and Red Magazine to style a kitchen in an event to showcase the Happy Life Trend. The event was designed to […]
I can’t believe it’s only 3 more days to Christmas. Pre christmas each year, I would make a festive sweet. Last year, I made shortbread cookies with my son. This year I decided to make Candy cane peppermint bark. They are delicious with coffee after your Christmas meal and great […]

Better late than never! I thought I’d show you the Advent calendar I made the kids this year. I wanted to do something colourful, so I decided to do some Ombre effect water colouring on tags stamped with numbers. At the back of each tag is a cryptic treasure hunt […]
I hosted a teen sleepover birthday party for 17 girls last night, for my daughter. It started at 630pm and the noisy fun went on till 3am but hey, it’s half term holidays for the girls. Here’s the cake I ordered from Crumbs and Doilies. Covered in the most vibrant […]
I was recently asked by one of my favourite online children’s clothes and lifestyle store, Alex and Alexa to collaborate on a Halloween feature in which I was interviewed. Even better, I got to do what I love best, to style and shoot a party at home with products from my favourite […]
Hello all, I’ve been admiring on Instagram, the paper snowflakes that my lovely sister Caroline has used to decorate her Christmas tree. She has kindly provided a step by step tutorial here: 1. Take 2 pieces of plain A4 paper. Fold in an accordion style. 2. Fold the folded paper […]
In continuation of my Arctic Pine, Scandinavian theme, here is instalment number 2 of my Christmas home decor. This is before I show you the children’s decoration in a later blog post. A far cry from the toned down minimalism, but a relaxed style that I adore too. At last, […]
