How to Buy Art on a Budget

I am all about eclectic, bargain art, whether that be searching for unique paintings on eBay, strolling through flea markets and antique fairs, or finding little shops on holiday. I love that a home can become a beautifully curated, and very unique art gallery. Personally, I like to arrange our […]

My Merry Pomander Oranges

The easiest, most delicious, and most fragrant DIY Christmas decoration: pomander oranges. I make them every year, they are my favourite handmade decorations and are so nostalgic; they bring back many happy memories of past Christmas holidays spent with family. I like to pierce the orange with a toothpick or […]

My favourite Festive tradition: Mulled wine

As soon as the tree is up, I make my first batch of mulled wine. Even when we lived in Los Angeles, I would find the ingredients and serve it to friends who had never heard of it before. The aroma of sliced oranges, cloves, cinnamon and red wine is […]

Setting the table at Lord Beaverbrook’s magnificent country house really took me on a walk through history. From gorgeous gardens to stone pavilions dotted around the grounds, there is an abundance of inspiration to be found here. Nevertheless, it was the shell-encrusted grotto by Belinda Eade that captured me the most and was the inspiration for Sharland England’s Autumn tablescape. It’s quite magical! The grotto […]

Terracotta Table Love

Balmy evenings, fresh drinks, good company and terracotta-toned tablescapes for me! I’ve always adored warm browns and terracotta tones. They bring back so many memories of happy childhood summers spent with my family in the south of France, where eating together and entertaining was a cherished daily activity. Moments full […]

A Sunny Little Bedroom

A sunny little bedroom for my not-so-little girl…I wanted Honor’s bedroom to be a calm space that felt right for a child but also a bedroom she can grow up with. I chose a warm neutral colour for the walls called Little Rascal by Earthborn…an aptly named paint for a […]
