I do love a good flat lay, I can spend hours faffi I do love a good flat lay, I can spend hours faffing on the floor!  I love them ever more when ceramics are involved, how absolutely gorgeous is this soap dish by @cadoceramics I have added to my collection that started at the beginning of lockdown.  Now that hand washing is more of a thing and continues to be so why not have beautiful soap and dishes to make it more pleasurable.  Also lashings of hand cream, couldn’t be without that either!

Normally this space gets filled with the clothes airer over the Winter months but it’s all tidy and clutter free again, well for a few days at least.  Happy March everyone, have a great week.

When the sunshine wakes you up, you just know it’s a day to be outside!  I even got up to hang the washing out and listen to the birds but I’m back under the duvet now with a coffee catching up with everyone on here.  Hope the sun is shining for you too ☀️

Timeless design and long lasting quality are defin Timeless design and long lasting quality are definitely on the top of my list when it comes to adding something new to my wardrobe.  I don’t buy a lot but a new piece every season replaces something old or unworn.  The new TOAST Made to Order collection is definitely one worth looking at.  Seasonal transition pieces designed to strengthen their environmental commitments taking a step further to ensuring that this collection is low impact and can be worn for many many years to come.

I am utterly in love with this Forte Ikat wrap dress, the colourful fabric is handwoven and hand dyed by master weavers in Southern India.  It is going to be a staple go to for many years to come and makes you feel rather marvellous when wearing it.

I wholeheartedly agree in investing in your clothes, how about you?

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.

So if stories has anything to go by you all love m So if stories has anything to go by you all love my freshly painted living room.  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!

One little bit of skirting board to go and I’m p One little bit of skirting board to go and I’m putting down the brushes.  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.
