Well hello there! So much has happened since I last blogged, that it’s hard to know how to start this post. Firstly, let me begin by wishing you all a happy new year (am I still allowed to say that!?) and secondly, I hope that you’re all staying as safe and sane as possible in…
The Beautiful Yorkshire Dales ~ Aysgarth Nook
*Ad With staycations in England set to be back on the cards from July 4th (whoop!) I thought I would share a fabulous holiday property I discovered back in February. Before lockdown, when getting in the car for a much needed weekend away with family and friends was still very much a thing you could…
Christmas Storage with Addis Home
*AD Broken baubles, tangled fairy lights, a lost Christmas stocking, any of these sound familiar? Like many of you, my Christmas decorations hold years of precious memories. So the last thing I want to see when I open a box after nearly a year in storage are damaged items. In a bid to make 2020…

However, once open, the actual gap to bring furniture through is a mere 70cm. Nineteen years ago, two chunky leather sofas were…
Brighten up your space with Kalanchoes
Ad* Let’s talk about colour, a thing I used to be very afraid of when it came to home decor, I was even fussy about what colour flowers I’d buy. Fast forward three years, and I can safely say I’m really embracing the joy colour brings into my life. I haven’t been brave enough to…
Garden Update ~ Decking Reveal
*Ad Here it is, my new deck in all its glory. I hope you’ll agree that these stunning Trex grey composite boards look as fabulous as I hoped they would in my little London garden. I’m currently on the lookout for the perfect table and chairs set to finish this area off (once I can…
