I have a dilemma: I’m naturally drawn to sleek, Scandinavian-style interiors, but I also love more characterful, rustic elements – gnarled wood, mottled plaster, worn floorboards, that kind of thing. How to successfully combine the two is a bit of an ongoing quandary in our house redecoration, and something I touched on in a recent home-tour post. I have a particular thing for rustic-looking . . .
Giveaway | Hobo Soy Candles
I’ll be honest: I have a bit of an addiction to scented candles. I have them dotted all over the house, and barely an evening goes by without me lighting a few here and there.

Easy like Sunday morning…
This Saturday is going to be a busy one for me as I’m off to London for the annual Blogtacular conference.
