    Working with pastel colours

    Choosing a colour scheme for your home is never an easy decision, do you go with bright and bold or subtle and calm? Well, if this is a decision you are currently struggling with then there is a type of colour scheme that is the perfect combination of both these choices; pastel colours. Pastels have really grown in popularity recently as we have see them featured more and more in some of this years’ most exciting trends. They are bright but calm, helping you create uniquely s

    Beautiful Kids Rooms for August '17

    I have been paying closer attention to kids rooms this month, mostly thanks to the 'back to school' trend and the addition of our own kid's room in the digital version of the Dulux Let's Colour Magazine which you can see here (with before and after photos). While you might think that a room fit for babies is easy to bring together - after all they won't complaint, yet! - the older the child, the more difficult it gets. Why? Because our tweens have an opinion and they are not

    Living Room: The collector's home

    Love collecting things and find hard to let go of vintage pieces and heirlooms? Well lucky you! This autumn/ winter the latest interiors trend to hit shop floors will be that of the the Globetrotter Collector. This style is all about telling stories of where you've been, what you love doing and most importantly, makes for beautiful, lived in interiors. Self-confessed collector Sophie Ashby of the eponymous studio said once in this interview for City AM: “I spend my life searc

    Creative Homework spaces for kids

    With the new school year just around the corner, this is the right time to get organised with your kid's workspace. From a new desk and chair to a whole room makeover, you want to have everything in place before the school bell rings. The last week before school should be all about getting back to a routine - early night sleeping for example - not about painting walls and building desks! You also want to have enough time to check out and order cool new accessories, everything

    UKHomeBlogHop Summer Vibes

    If there is one thing that gets me absolutely hooked online is blog hoping! Nothing better on a Monday morning (and indeed a bank holiday in the UK and the US) than to snoop around other people's homes looking for inspiration. So a big welcome to my #UKHomeBlogHop Summer Vibes edit! For those who joined me from Carole King and Dear Designer, how great was her garden styling! Absolutely nailed it and hope you will find the below equally inspiring! This is my second UKHomeBlogH

    New & Now - The Tribal Trend is back

    Hello May! The Tribal trend is having its moment again, so here are some hero pieces that are going to have you swoon over them, most of them new. Inspired by the beautiful products that I found on Amara this week, I have picked a selection for you, and obviously I am sharing my home office which is also based on this look. I also covered the same trend here some time ago and it will give you some excellent ideas about styling your rooms. While African interiors and fabrics a

    10 ways to add colour with lights

    For those who are feeling less adventurous with colour and don't want to (or cannot) paint a wall, there are still plenty of ways to introduce pops of it around a room in a way that will not overwhelm you or cause you trouble with your landlord. Yes, it is through colourful lights. There are many ways to achieve this especially if you think about materials and fabrics that could be used. You might use a pendant light, a wall sconce, a table or floor lamp. Let's have a look at

    How to style a bedroom that is painted grey

    Imagine having to renovate your ensuite bathroom. That's not a one day job surely! Sounds more like a 10-15 day job to me (or at least that's the plan but who knows). Whatever the timeframe, we're planning to start at some point soon(ish) and that means sleeping in the master bedroom while works take place is going to be problematic. Think about all the dust! Solution: move to the guest bedroom for a staycation until the work is complete. Job done! But the guest bedroom is th

    The Midas Touch - Style a side table 2 ways

    Oh, the elusive side table. You have searched the internet so many times and still have not made up your mind about one. You need it in the living room or in the bedroom. It's meant to tick the following boxes: it needs to have on trend materials and by that I mean gold/brass; it needs to be big enough to carry more than just a lamp; and ideally, it needs to provide some storage space, so a second shelf would be handy for books or boxes. Oh, and it needs to look really, REALL

    Come into Bloom

    One of the things that I love about John Lewis Home (and there are many, believe me) is the curated collection of products that are introduced every so often: The Home Edits. I've covered these before, here and here. There is always a story behind them and this month's Edit is no different, drawing inspiration from the Leckford Estate in Hampshire (also known as the 'Waitrose Farm'). Leckford Estate was purchased by John Spedan Lewis in 1929 and remained his home throughout h

    Bedroom: new linen collections for SS17

    Most of the styling makeovers I have done in our bedrooms over time relied on one key piece: a duvet cover. Seriously, this item alone can change the WHOLE look and feel in your room. Sometimes it will stand out as the 'odd one in the room' but mostly it will bring your scheme together. A complementing cushion can help too! So let's have a look at what's trending right now when it comes to gorgeous looking linen. LA REDOUTE French brand La Redoute's latest collection included

    Decorate your home, David Hockney style!

    This month David Hockney's most iconic works are coming to Tate Britain, so grab your tickets and go down to see the works up close (I am heading there this Friday! Cannot wait!). Like many who love art in its many forms, I surely enjoy Hockney's simplified way of drawing and love his 60s and 70s drawings as much as his more recent work ("82 portraits and 1 still life"). Could you have a home that is decorated in a "David Hockney" style? Potentially yes, but it would take a l

    Abstract Art at home with Jessica Zoob

    I have aways been fascinated by abstract art and often wondered whether there is order in what initially appears to be chaos on a canvas. "Abstract art is art that does not attempt to represent an accurate depiction of a visual reality but instead use shapes, colours, forms and gestural marks to achieve its effect", says the Tate glossary. Indeed there is a degree of independence and the artist expresses themselves outside the traditional boundaries. You sit in front of abstr

    Go Dark with Made.com | Home shoot

    So 2 weeks ago I had a wonderful team from Made.com in the house to shoot photography and video as our home was chosen as their "House of the Month". Wait, what!!? I was completely shocked when I got the call and jumped to the opportunity with no questions asked. I love MADE and have featured their products numerous times on this blog. So if they wanted to shoot at our home, I was super keen to let them in! The whole theme in this shoot was Dark Interiors and how to style the

    Christmas - time to entertain

    I don't know about you but I really feel the pressure to deliver something very very nice when it comes to entertaining around December. And the thing is, I do care about presentation and do want the house to look great when guests arrive. It's fine if you prefer something low key. But if you want to throw a really good party, read on! ADD SOMETHING FESTIVE IN THE HALLWAY Although we have a wreath outside the house, I also add one more on the mirror in our hallway as my guest

    Chalet chic interiors with Chamonix

    I'll go right on and say it. When I was in year 6, my dad would take me out of school on the odd weekday (shock horror) and we'd drive up to the nearest ski resort for a day of skiing delight. I was only too happy to oblige as you can imagine. The teachers didn't even blink when supposedly a "sick student" I would return the next day with a suspicious tan on my face from where the ski goggles would normally sit. These days, skiing is only on school holidays and there's more s

    Zara Home is a pleasure to visit, because there is always something to be found in this treasure trove of a shop. My nearest store is in BlueWater where I also park easily and so it is easy to take away even bigger items like accent tables, lamps or rugs. ZARA has come up with a few key looks for this Christmas to satisfy all tastes. 1/ GOLDEN CHRISTMAS This is self-explanatory - gold rules in this look.

    Bedroom: Give it the boutique hotel look

    Your bedroom needs to be a place that feels relaxing, everyone knows that. But what if it was more than that? What about that feeling you get when you enter a boutique hotel room: these rooms somehow make you stop thinking about deadlines and workloads; the only thing that comes to mind is the wonderful night's sleep ahead of you. Wouldn't you want to replicate this feeling at home? The boutique hotel look starts in our bedrooms. Forget about living and dining rooms, it's all

    Pink Blush Furniture - Small changes for big impact

    Browsing through Houzz stories lately I started realising that homeowners are getting more confident using colour. What has helped a lot is that furniture companies have picked up on this early and now most advertisements show their key pieces in jewel-like colours, rich leathers and even patterned velvets. So this week I am exploring CAMERICH's new season palettes for the living room as well as materials to use around busier homes. New season palettes Pink Blush is having a
