A new look for Autumn

by kate Warrington

The transition between seasons is often when I feel most inspired to make changes within my home. I can't quite believe it but we've been in our 'new place' for a year now, having moved in late September 2020. It feels both like yesterday and a lifetime ago, as can often be the way. Having spent a full twelve months ...

Wonderful wallpaper

by kate Warrington

I have to confess, I've never really been a fan of wallpaper. And by never really, I mean, I've actually had a severe aversion to it that I can trace directly back to the hideous mish-mash of wallpapers that adorned the walls of my childhood home that still give me nightmares to this day.

Loungewear has naturally formed ...

In pursuit of wellbeing

by kate Warrington

It's safe to say the first few months of the year have been tough on us all. I doubt I was the only one secretly hoping - even though it was highly unlikely - that the new year might bring with it the usual promise of a fresh start, and renewed hope. But, as is often the case, it truly ...
