3 tips for the most welcoming guest room

Whenever guests come to stay, I want them to feel really at home from the moment they arrive. So when I decorated our guest room I looked to create a welcoming space that felt calm and special. Here are my top tips:  Floral textiles are one of my favourites; in […]

A Fruity Centrepiece

Floral arrangements are the typical choice for centrepieces which you’ve probably seen in my many tablescape designs. However, an alternative to flower centrepieces that I’ve been embracing recently are fruit centrepieces. As well as being pretty, they’re edible! What’s not to love?  Working from the warm mustard and honey tones […]

Make Breakfast Pretty! My Homemade Granola

It’s always in the best hotels that I opt for the granola at breakfast. Yes, it’s delicious, but I also love the Kilner jar presentation, and the mouth-watering sides of berries, Greek yoghurt, and honey drizzle that it comes with. It just looks so pretty. And I’ve finally found my […]

Shell we Lay the Table? One tabletop idea you conch resist when you sea it…

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 […]

Marbled Spring Table

Is it too early to be planning my marbled spring table?! I think not and with some sunny days in my kitchen I have been creating some new styles and tablescapes. After the berry reds and forest greens of Christmas I’m enjoying bright colours, pretty glassware and florals…both on the […]

Snails On The Wallpaper?!

The final room reveal of the new house is this special little maroon bathroom which is a wonderful mix of reds and browns; dark wood, brass and painted joinery. This is the bathroom that the girls use so I wanted it to be a bit more playful.Not only that but […]

Pretty In Pink

You might slightly recognise this pretty in pink bedroom. I created a rather similar version in our old home in the countryside, and seeing as we only ended up living there one year, I wasn’t ready to part with the decor (especially that scalloped headboard!) just yet. So I adapted […]
