[Advertisement - this is a paid partnership with the Hairpin Leg Co, but all words and opinions are my own] I love starting a new year with new stationery, new notebooks and a crisp, blank planner – it always gives me a wonderful sense of back-to-school freshness and anticipation. But for 2018, I’ve gone one step further with a sparkling new desk for my home office. I first shared a . . .
Interior-design trends for 2018
Back in November I was one of a group of bloggers invited to London’s Miele Experience Centre by the lovely people at Houzz for a roundtable discussion on interior-design trends for 2018.

It's a task I take very seriously to this day, and even though we're not hosting Christmas this year, I still want to create a festive atmosphere for December meals . . .
