It's raining and dreary (did we have a summer?) but anyway welcome to my blog which if like me you love home furnishings, shopping or making things for your home I hope you'll find useful as well as inspiring!
As a freelance interiors stylist and journalist putting together photoshoots for magazines and home furnishing brands i'm constantly traipsing up and down high streets around the country (always sensible shoes!) more times that you'd like to imagine looking at all the lovely homey things that are around so... i thought it was about time that i got "you'll love it too... " up and running as a sort of scrapbook of what i see and love both on my travels and from my hours rummaging around on the web.
Being a stylist makes you a bit of a compulsive window shopper or maybe a compulsive shopper should become a stylist? but what I love about my job is that I get really excited seeing and discovering new things - ok hands up.... comparing this to the bigger picture it is a bit superfluous - a shiny shell, new cushion or making a card aren't going to change the world but it feels really great when you unearth something a little bit different that is a great idea for a decorating shoot or just to add a style-y touch to your home- whether it's a swatch of fabric, piece of china, or even a pretty postcard that you love...it's sure to give you the feel good factor and inject your personality into your home...
To whet your appetite for those Autumn days on their way - little things with big appeal from one of my favourite staple mail order companies for inspiring and unusual finds Plumo http://www.plumo.com/living_template.htm - their new Autumn/Winter collection is just perfect for brightening up this gloomy old day ....
