I love putting the finishing touches to a home , f I love putting the finishing touches to a home , for me I now find the special items in antique stores and reclaim yards. Long gone are the days looking for new items online and on the high street.  The bonus with this is that I’m becoming a bit more eco friendly and it keeps my fittest levels up with all the amount of walking and lifting 😆 If you can recommend a place where you think I should go , please let me know and put it in the comments box below ⬇️

Spring cannot be too far away now! After seeing Spring cannot be too far away now! 

After seeing all the beautiful florals at the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour this week, I thought I'd show you a window treatment that I made earlier in the year. It consists of blackout Roman blinds, a set of dress/faux curtains, and a pelmet.

As there is a radiator under the window, we didn't want to cover it with beautiful thick interlined curtains, which is why a Roman blind was the obvious choice, but it didn't feel "enough" on its own. We wanted to make a bit of a feature of it, so we added the faux curtains and the upholstered pelmet, which also disguises all the "ugly" hardware. 

Enjoy!

I’m in heaven ✨💫❤️ Here’s a quick glimpse of some I’m in heaven ✨💫❤️ Here’s a quick glimpse of some of the wonders I saw today. 

If it’s your first trip to the show here are a few tips 
1. Wear the most comfortable pair of shoes that you have as you will be walking a LOT. No worries about getting your steps in . 👟👟👟

2. Layer up! One minute you’ll be freezing outside then after a few showrooms you might be a tad hot. They’ve got a great cloakroom where you can drop coats and luggage. 🧥👜🌂

2. Bring a refillable bottle for water. There are cafes but the queues are usually long. There are free water refill stations and complementary refreshments in some showrooms if you fancy a bit of networking. 🥂💦☕️

3. You don’t need to take every sample or brochure! Why carry them when you can ask the company to send them to you? 📚✉️📮

Enjoy!

My style is slow and steady, I love sourcing from junk and antique shops . These images are a quick glimpse into some of the places I go to in France, Norfolk , The Cotswold and counties closer to home.  There’s nothing better than the thrill of finding that perfect piece. 💪🏼🥰🐌

Well what can I say….the details on these curtains are amazing. I don’t think they could add another window treatment if they tried. The layers start with shutter, rollers blind, voiles, interlined curtains , swags , tails , pelmet, trimming and tassels!

Each morning before diving into the creative chaos Each morning before diving into the creative chaos of the studio, I take a moment to embrace the serenity of our garden. Today, I had this crazy girl 🐾 joining me, convinced that the water feature is her personal oversized water bowl. 😂

Now, tucked away in the studio, I’m knee-deep in business admin and client sampling - a task that surprisingly sparks joy in my heart ❤️. Although I’m indoors, I can’t help but steal glances at the beautiful blue sky through my window. ☀️

Here’s to cherishing these small moments and the magic they bring into our daily hustle. 🌸

Good morning! Let us dive into some Saturday schem Good morning! Let us dive into some Saturday scheming with me! 🌟

Today, I’m peeling back the layers of crafting the perfect scheme for a family’s snug. First, I started with a striking striped fabric for the Roman blind—this piece is the heart of my design. For the family’s 3-seater sofa, I’ve opted for a light-coloured, small woven pattern, ensuring comfort meets style. The durable, darker check fabric for the armchair is not just chic but also pet-friendly, ready to withstand our furry friend’s adventures without a hitch!🐾

I’ve selected a deep blue for the walls to envelop the room in cosiness. This choice complements the natural stone on one wall beautifully, adding depth without overwhelming the space. And for that final touch? A gorgeous trim along the bottom of the blinds, safely out of reach from our chew-happy canine companion.

Thinking of revamping your space to make it more pet-friendly? Let’s chat!

Today was another day dedicated to organising my f Today was another day dedicated to organising my fabric book collection, but I paused to admire the beauty of these compilations. Here are a few snapshots of the embroidered fabrics that I offer. 

While embroidery can enhance almost any item, it’s important to consider its usage. Delicate embroidery may not be ideal for an everyday favourite chair, but it’s perfect for cushions and possibly headboards.

Even though my focus is on soft furnishings, my ba Even though my focus is on soft furnishings, my background in interior design deeply influences my approach to crafting your home’s aesthetic.

I often find myself guiding clients through the maze of paint and wallcovering selections, helping them harmonise their space beautifully.
Here’s a prime example of blending expertise and taste. I have a passion for using patterns, be it on the wallcovering or fabrics, accentuating with striking trims and poles, and selecting the perfect palette of brand paints.
So, if you ever find yourself pondering over room aesthetics or struggling to ignite that spark of inspiration, why not book a consultation? Let’s explore the potential of fabrics together. DM me or call ☎️ 07880 855819 and let me assist you in transforming your space!

Every year, without fail, we dive into the fabric Every year, without fail, we dive into the fabric library, cataloguing the old and making way for the new. The old fabric books, brimming with patterns and textures that have inspired countless projects, are then ready to embark on a new journey.

Instead of letting these treasures fade into obscurity, we pass them on to the incredibly talented hands of local crafters. These artists breathe new life into each swatch and sample, transforming them into something both beautiful and functional. This year the word has it that these gifted individuals are channelling their creativity into making bags. 

If you are interested in taking some of the fabric books that we no longer need, please dm, and your name will be added to the list
