It would seem I have bunting on the brain after my own attempt last week. Bunting and garlands make a lovely addition to your space, or perhaps even a cake. They bring colour, life, and that something that’s a little bit different. Not to mention there are so many different options for styles ~ vintage [...]

The word vignette is quite the confusing term for me. For starters, I have trouble pronouncing it {apparently it’s vin-yet}. Second, defining it. You see it used in all reference to home decorating, a lot, and it sums up the concept perfectly ~ those lovely little arrangements that just are that the incredibly stylish who [...]

Sorry, a little bit late with this post ~ I’m afraid the sneaky cold has well and truly grabbed me by the throat {and nose, and head, and chest}. But, with all this talk of spring and flowers blooming, it’s hard not to be dreaming of spring and what she may bring in a riot [...]

But ultimately, very [...]

Sometimes I take for granted this feeling of space, sometimes, on beautiful crisp winters days filled with sunshine, I really appreciate it. Via [...]

Today I found some more lovely tumblr blogs, and I don’t know about you but I think tumblr has come a long way since it first started. I wasted far too much time this morning down the tumblr rabbit hole. Although my heart still belongs to pinterest for ease of use. So today, some more [...]

It would seem I have a case of desk envy. As try as I might, other rooms don’t quite grab me as a nice desk or workspace. I haven’t actually categoried these as workspaces but instead a collection of lovely spaces and vignettes. If you look closely, one is for gardening planning, one for drawing. [...]

I am having a lot of fun over at pinterest ~ browsing, pinning, being inspired. All the images this week have been found over there, except that lovely one with the green light that I pinned myself. Clockwise from top left: via fint; via havenspie; via amanda thomas; via aura home; via havenspie. You can [...]
