15 Oct 2013
Finally my little sitting room is coming together. I had the alcove shelving built when I first moved in two years ago but there has been so much else to do that this room was last on the list. I knew I wanted it to look cosy, particularly at night time as that’s when it […]
We’re talking interiors trends again, and this time we’ll be highlighting a trend that is huge at the moment.
This blog post was going to be about the ubiquitous washi tape. But, as you will see, I’ve digressed and it’s more about tips on home styling but I will get to that later. Washi tape is everywhere – stacked prettily on shelves in shops, endless designs on web shops, various craft how to’s on […]
