Lessa Mattress update

In November last year we were very fortunate to be sent the Innovative new Leesa mattress to review.  You can read the original post HERE .   The post has continued to create a lot of interest with people leaving comments, emailing and asking questions on facebook and twitter.

Celebrating classic British furniture

I am regularly sent press releases and updates on current trends and news in the interiors and furniture world.

My 15 favourite UK Home and Interiors blogs

As a (mostly) homes and interiors blogger, one of the things I enjoy when I have some spare time is to browse similar blogs.  

Vintage Rocks Chalk Paint - Oars

I was recently asked to try out some rather cool looking chalk paint from an equally cool named company called Vintage Rocks.  

Devon County Show

Despite having lived in Devon for over 25 years I have only been to the Devon County Show on a handful of occasions.  

Bloom and Wild

Everyone knows I am a flower addict ( well who isn't) Its the only colour I allow in my home.

I'm a bit preoccupied at the moment working on the launch of the white approach online shop.  I will be back to blogging as soon as its up and running.

If you haven't yet subscribed to the new website shop you can do so at the bottom of the home page HERE

Subscribers will be the first to know about all the new stock, special offers and discounts.

Exciting times!

Thank you

Big Ideas, Small space

Searching for inspiration for my garden she shed, I recently came across an article on how to decorate a contemporary small space.

The White Approach Candle

I was just a little bit excited today when a delivery arrived.  It was a box full of beautifully scented candles for my soon to be re-launched website.

Lene Bjerre at Houseology

I came across the Scandinavian brand Lene Bjerre on Houseology recently and immediately fell in love with their classic design style.

DIY white stool makeover

Although I no longer paint or renovate furniture for a living, I still enjoy an occasional project.  When I saw two badly decoupaged wooden stools in a local Devon charity shop I knew they would be a quick and easy DIY painting project.

Returning to work in a "proper job" leaves me very little time these days to indulge my passion for bargain hunting and tracking down stylish affordable items for the home.  When I do find something and post it on my social media, I am often asked where or if it can be bought.

April #Stylewise

The trouble with having eleven year old twin boys is they no longer want to go anywhere in the school holidays.  Its a real trial trying to encourage them out of their bedroom and away from the computers and gadgets !  So I decided to take myself off yesterday for a bit of a mooch around the local charity shops in Heavitree and Topsham.  

The boys bedroom before & after

As the Bank holiday Easter weekend was mostly rained off, we managed to finish the makeover of the twins industrial style bedroom.
