Hello and happy new year! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas break? Mine was just what I needed it to be - simple and laid-back - and I'm starting 2019 feeling refreshed, reenergised and raring to go. I recently did a little survey on Instagram about what people would like to see on the blog over the coming year, and a recurring request was more travel content. I already have a few trips on . . .

And I'd like to ask a little favour: I was over the . . .

So, settle back and feast your eyes on the things that have grabbed my attention over the last few weeks... . . .
Minimalist Christmas table styling with fir, candles & pine cones
Now that our dining-room makeover is complete, I’m looking forward to styling the table for festive feasts - especially as we’re hosting Christmas this year. (Have I mentioned that before....? As you might have guessed, I’m a little excited!). Creating a beautiful table is always something I enjoy, and it needn’t be time-consuming or expensive - in fact all you need is a bit of seasonal foliage . . .
Easy Christmas styling with paper decorations
Today I want to share a simple but striking festive arrangement using a foraged branch and paper decorations - ideal if you need a bit of last-minute Christmas inspiration, or you don't have much spare time to spend decking the halls. It was inspired by arrangements created by fellow bloggers Elisabeth Heier and Carla Sofie Molge, and it was incredibly easy to do - I just chopped a nicely . . .
My minimalist yet warm dining-room makeover | The reveal
We've lived in our house for just over four years now, but it's still far from finished - not least because rather than move onto areas that we haven't yet touched, I've spent the last few months redoing rooms that we'd already decorated! First up was the living room, and now I'm excited to be able to share the results of the next makeover on the list: the dining room. This room is one of the . . .
12 of the best minimalist metal wreaths
It's the first day of December, so I reckon it's Officially OK to start putting up the Christmas decorations. As you'll probably know from previous posts, I like to keep things minimalist but festive, and wreaths are some of my favourite things to create.

Profile | Future design classics from NABO
[Advertisement - this is a paid partnership with NABO, but all words and opinions are my own] A few months ago I featured the gorgeous London apartment of Christina Thaisen, who's a firm believer in buying meaningful, long-lasting objects rather than following throwaway trends. It's an ethos that I share, and today I want to tell you a bit more about NABO, the Danish lifestyle shop which . . .
How to have a minimalist Christmas
I love Christmas – I always have. I love the sights and sounds, the scent of pine needles and mulled wine, and the chance to spend time with family and friends. And I love that hint of magic which always seems to hang in the air, even when you're an adult. But if I’m honest, the last few years have been a little strange. My family and I have tried so hard to recreate the wonderful Christmasses . . .
