Cold weather has begun to set in over the last few days – our central heating has been switched on, the cat has started to snuggle under the duvet at night, and sheepskins have appeared all over the house. With that in mind, I want to start the week by sharing a gorgeous Swedish home that’s packed with seasonal design inspiration. . . .
New furniture & homeware finds | October 2016
It's time for another round-up of new products and homeware collections that have appeared on my radar recently. There are some beauties this month, including a host of launches from Denmark and some exciting additions at brands based a little closer to home... . . .
Introducing Happy + Co
I get all sorts of emails about new homeware brands, and to be honest a lot of them aren't of much interest. But every now and then something intriguing pops into my inbox.

Giveaway | Win luxury bedding from House of Fraser
