A couple of weeks ago, I was lucky enough to be invited to Skåne in southern Sweden along with a small group of other bloggers – Sarah Akwisombe, Lou of Littlegreenshed and Kimberly of Swoon Worthy. The trip was hosted by the lovely people at Visit Sweden and Visit Skåne, with the aim of showcasing all the wonderful design, scenery and food which the region has to offer. I’ve visited Sweden . . .
New wall-art finds
It's that time of the month when I'd normally share a round-up of new furniture and homeware designs from recent weeks, but today I'm doing something a little different. I've spent the last few days choosing new prints to hang in our living room and I've come across some wonderful new artists and just-launched ranges, so I've decided to put together an art special instead! Without further ado, . . .
Striking Danish design from 101 Copenhagen
Today I want to introduce a new Danish interiors brand that’s already generating a lot of buzz in the design world: 101 Copenhagen. Launched at Maison & Objet in Paris last month, it aims to create timeless pieces with a focus on quality and craftsmanship – the kind of Scandinavian design ethos that I love. The first collection includes vases, coffee tables, handcrafted tableware, storage . . .
Relaxed elegance from H&M Home
A bit of brand news for you today, as H&M Home has just launched a new range of premium-quality products for the bedroom. It's called 'Relaxed Elegance' and it looks beautiful, with lots of soft, calming tones and natural textures that are ideal for snuggling up on chilly autumn nights.

Foraging in the Forest of Dean
Apologies for the lack of posts over the last few days, but I’ve been in southern Sweden, discovering the wonderful design, food and scenery of the Skåne region. More on that to follow soon, but first I have a find from home turf to share with you: beautiful Forest of Dean hotel Tudor Farmhouse. The Forest of Dean is only an hour north of Bristol, but for some reason I’ve never spent much time . . .
Five stylish places to stay in Madrid
It’s time for another round-up of stylish places to stay in some of my favourite destinations, and today I’m turning my attention to Madrid. I’ve visited the vibrant Spanish capital several times over the years – most recently at the end of the ‘Sunny Design Days’ tour in July, when I couldn’t resist tagging a quick city break onto the end of the week – and I’ve always been captivated by its . . .
Home tour | Small-space living in neutral tones
More and more of us reside in small homes, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy style and comfort – as this duplex attic apartment proves. Located in the Swedish city of Gothenburg, it’s a great example of how clever design can be used to make compact spaces beautiful to look at and practical to live in. The apartment’s layout has been carefully considered, and every nook is used to maximum . . .
Fallen Angel | Cornwall
Today I’m sharing another find from Cornwall: super-romantic self-catering hideaway Fallen Angel. This sleek rubber-clad house is set in one of my favourite villages, Mousehole, and I first spied it perched on the hillside above the harbour when Chris and I spent our minimoon there in May. I couldn’t resist Googling it to find it what it was, and I loved the look of it so much that I included it . . .

I first stumbled across it on Instagram, and I was instantly smitten with its thoughtfully crafted home accessories and quietly beautiful styling.

How to create a terrarium with Fiskars
[This is a paid partnership with Fiskars, but all words and opinions are my own] As you might have gathered from some of my previous posts, I love plants. The only problem is I’m not actually very good at caring for them, and my low success rate when it comes to keeping greenery alive has put me off trying anything new. So, when I was invited to join a group of lifestyle and design bloggers . . .
