Autumn trends
I am feeling inspired by textures & patterns today (ok so I have sneaked in another little warming fire place image again I just couldn't resist)..... But its when the weather changes that textures especially start to really become the most important to me. Its the coziness of certain fabrics that we crave on a cold & dark evening. It all starts to become about cushions galore, as well as woollen rugs & throws. But......
A cold chill......
I will be honest its freezing here in the office & I know its only September, but I am already in need of the heating on. Where the heck did summer go already?? So already here I am swooning over delightfully appealing fire places, you know I just cant help myself. We are coming into my favourite time of year & I wont bore you once again chit chattering on about my love of the hearty fireplace but I may slip......
Bathroom Inspiration
Make the most of your cloakroom space by creating an inviting space to your house guests. Just because its a small toilet area doesn't mean it doesn't deserve a little creativity & style. I really love the flamingo wallpaper in this space it adds a little glamour don't you think. Unlike the bathroom it isn't exposed to moisture so wallpaper can work really well. The room is kept light & airy with pale flooring & white......

bo ho living
This colourful boho style living room is alive with great ecclectic pieces from the shabby chic sideboard to the more contemporary reading lamp. The cosy looking cream sofas scattered with vibrant cushions is my favourite thing about the space but I also love the collection of mixed random picture frames on the wall. An altogether comfortable & inviting room.&nb......

Utility room
If there is one room I could do with in my home its a utility/laundry room. There is nothing worse than laundry hanging around the house drying. The ironing basket that seems to be continuously over spilling is another pet hate but a little space to hide this all away would be a god send to me. I try my hardest to keep on top of ironing but working the hours I do doesn't make this an easy task. So yes on my 'WANT' list for a new house a utility room......
