Get hooked on crochet!

It's my latest obsession  - a wave of crocheted granny squares adorning my floor and oh how enjoyable it its... I'm obviously bang on trend too as you will see from my latest find Wood & Wood Stool a fab company with great products by talented Ingrid Jansen...http://www.woodwoolstool.com/products.html - take a look at the high street shops too crochet accessories sneaking into their spring summer ranges - i'll keep you posted....

Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny...

OK - its time to 'fess up..' I just can't resist buying dolls house furniture at the moment - maybe it's because I actually can't fit any more furniture into my house so this is the next best thing - far cheaper and I can sneak pieces in without it being noticed..(in fact i'm building up quite a collection).. Anyhow my recent obsession led me to paint up some bits for a recent Brewers paint shoot that I was working on which was all about playing with scale - so what could be more perfect.... http://www.brewers.co.uk/

Make a house a home...

Many hours were spent burning the midnight oil with graph paper and pencil working out how many lights and how much paint and wallpaper would be needed to decorate this amazing pier in Australia for the spectacular new Homebase ad that I was lucky enough to be a part of -  I now feel I know the Homebase products intimately!!    phew!! it was a tricky project but well worth the results ... I hope you all agree ... RESPECT to the Leo Burnett ad team and Liz Murphy the director...

Oh so Colourful

I'm a real fan of Rice - not the food but the bright and colourful quirky home accessories people from Denmark as their products are always a breath of fresh air and guaranteed to bring a smile to your face as well as inject a splash of colour into your home.   I've just ordered one of their last seasons papier mache deer heads from the mail order company Camelandyak.co.uk for an event I am styling in the next couple of weeks  http://www.camelandyak.co.uk/rice-paper-mache-deer-head-1961-0.html but for a guaranteed chuckle take a  look at their new Spring Collection - it's just fab..http://www.rice.dk/
