    Mindful Moodboards

    Jane / February 7, 2020

    I’ve always enjoyed creating mood boards, even before technology came to the fore and of course Pinterest.  I would spend hours going through old magazines and cutting out favourite images to make collages, I found it very therapeutic, creating these…

    Winter Warmth by Adding Brown

    Thoughtful Winter with Toast

    Jane / November 22, 2019

    Duvet Days with Bedfolk

    Jane / October 18, 2019

    There is nothing I like more than climbing under fresh new bedding, the softness that lulls you into a deep sleep.   I like plain bedding sets, ones that are of a certain colour palette that I can mix and match…

I’ve been feeling a little under the weather thi I’ve been feeling a little under the weather this week, it’s the time of the year that I get a little run down and tired.  So I’ve been trying to look after myself the best way I can, having my daily tea ritual helps too.  Taking the time to make a pot of beautiful tea and to enjoy every sip without rushing around and leaving half cups here and there.  This week I’ve been enjoying this new soothing loose leaf blend called mindful moments with no caffeine it has helped calm and relax my mind with is unique blend of rosehip, camomile, lemon verbena and lavender.  It has been a tonic to help me recover and heal.  What do you do to feel better?

It’s so hard to put into words how I feel about this one, she makes me so very proud and I love her to the stars and back.  She’s my friend and we laugh till we cry, she’s everything that is good in the world and I’m so happy that I get to be her Mum.  So today we are going to fill our face with cake have a glass or two of fizz and probably dance around the living room which is quite normal in this house.

Gone are the dark varnished skirting boards, very tired white painted woodwork and radiator.  Hello all matching loveliness that has created a warmth but also bounces the light beautifully.  I couldn’t be more happier, it makes me smile every time I walk in the room.  Tomorrow it will be adorned in Birthday goodness as my gorgeous girl Ruby turns 16, yep can’t quite get my head around that one either!

Then I’ll be wanting to choose another colour because they are all so delicious and find somewhere else to paint.  It’s looking fabulous I’m very chuffed but haven’t had time to take any pics, will try and rectify that today so you can all see.

I absolutely love interiors, from pinning away to I absolutely love interiors, from pinning away to losing myself in interior books and magazines on a daily basis.  The homes featured always inspire and help me bring new life into my own home but how marvellous would it be to run a lifestyle location business like @peagreenlocations who are featuring on the blog today.  This unique new business has the most stylish portfolio of modern rustic and contemporary properties in the UK and I want to live in them all!  Alas this is a picture of my home but you can see more of the delicious properties that they feature over on the blog with a sneak peek of more on stories later!  Do you obsess over interiors as much as me, I’d love to know?
