New year, fresh beginnings! January is the perfect

New year, fresh beginnings! January is the perfect time to refresh your space. After all the decs come down I can feel a little blue as the house looks so bare and uninspiring. Here are 8 simple ways to start the year with a home that helps you feel optimistic and renewed:

- Add a fresh pop of colour with seasonal flowers displayed in a bold vase. I supplement shop bought blooms with a few springs of foliage from the garden. Instant uplift!
- I never feel more inspired to have a good old declutter & re-organise as I do this time of year. I promise you it’s like therapy once you get started as you clear out your surfaces and cupboards and make way to create some beautiful displays!
- I’m a firm believer that you don’t need big bucks to create a beautiful home, just a little creativity and ingenuity. Look around your home and think about what’s up for a little reinvention with a lick of fresh paint or a piece of new fabric.
- There is nothing more exciting than rolling out a bold new paint colour across your walls, delivering the most bang for your buck in terms of a transformation. Think about which colour brings you the most joy and just go for it.
- With the January sales on, it’s a great opportunity to grab some fresh new bedlinen. Go for a bold pattern in a new colourway and it will totally change the look of the room. (Make sure you check out my collection at @JohnLewis while you’re at it!)
- If you don’t need to bring more into your home right now, have fun restyling the objects you already own.
- One of the best ways to kick start the new year is to take time to create a vision board for your next creative project. It’s the best time for laying plans, leaning into your creativity. Then you are ready to get going with gumption in Spring, but a clarity of vision.

January is just around the corner, and I’m already dreaming about all the gorgeous interiors that are waiting to come to life. Is this the year to finally make it happen for you too?

Imagine your home bursting with personality, layers of colour, and pieces that make your heart sing every time you walk in. Sounds like a dream, right?

The night before Christmas. I love this time when

The night before Christmas. I love this time when all the prep has been done, presents are wrapped and i’ve finally finished decorating the house! I took a moment to feel grateful for my beautiful home, while everyone was in bed and the house was quiet…and tidy! I love the magic Christmas brings this time of year. The twinkle of the fairy lights, the flicker of the fire, the glow of the candles. And all the extra colourful decorations! Tis the season of joy after all.
This goes out to all of you who work hard to bring the magic of Christmas to your friends and family. it’s exhausting but so worth it. There is nothing I love more then filling my home with the people I love and making them feel welcome, loved
and special. The big day is here and let the chaos commence! 🎄

Wishing you a very Merry, and colourful Christmas! ❤️

Last minute idea for a table centre piece that’s

Last minute idea for a table centre piece that’s super quick and simple!

Simply get a low vase, pot or container and a tall tapered candle. Fix it to the bottom with a blog of blue tack, or melt the bottom to secure in place. Use tape to make a grid around the candle to stop it falling over. Take some left over supermarket flowers and foliage snipped from the garden, cut short and nestle all around. Voila! I’ll make three of these and place them down the centre. They look so stunning!

My rug arrived in time for Christmas!!!

Introducing my new collection with @harlequinfw and wow what a fresh injection of bold colour joy this Basketweave design has injected into the living room! It feels uplifting, energising and positively perfect. I love how the bold geometric design contrasts with the pretty florals and vintage furniture and the overall effect is so much more modern.

Best tip I can give you is to go as large as you can afford so all the front feet of the furniture sit on the rug. You want to maximise that splash of colour and pattern to really make the statement.

Pick a design and colour way that compliments the rest of your scheme. I love the way the aqua sofa sings against the coral red and pink, yet the colours also link back to the cushions and the painting.

The deep 100% pure new pile feels super luxurious for the winter season and is a treat to walk on.

You can see the whole collection at @therugseller with outlets in the US and Australia coming in the new year!

Adding joyful colour to your Christmas table could

Adding joyful colour to your Christmas table couldn’t be easier with these easy ideas.

Tie large ribbon bows to the back of your dining chairs, allowing the tails to fall lavishly long.

Use brightly coloured napkins to pop against your classic tableware. A table cloth is an obvious choice but I also love the natural wood against all these bright colours.

Dot fruit like clementines, pomegranates, pears and plums down the centre of the table and a few left over tree decorations for a versatile centre piece.

Create small posies of colourful flowers and berries, tucked into glass tumblers or low bowls and dot around the room liberally.

Add colourful candles down the centre of the table, in different heights, to finish off the centre piece.

I think Lucy the dog approves. Do you? Let me know in the comments below…

Decorate my tree with me! I love to bring out the

Decorate my tree with me! I love to bring out the same Christmas tree decorations year on year but always with a new twist. This year my update is a juicy red, pink and orange scheme. Join me, my Mum and Arthur as we decorate our tree! 🎄

Here’s how:
1. Start with the lights. I always go for a warm light indoors as it’s more ambient to live with.
2. Wanting to save on money and plastic this year, I raided my garden and picked a bunch of hydrangea heads. Other dried flowers could work too.
3. Next update is these tissue paper baubles. I bought 4” ones from eBay and stuck to a pink, red and orange colour scheme as they really pop against the dark green branches.
4. Left over ribbons from last years garland came out again, simply tied rather than in a bow, so they dangle amongst the branches
5. My new recruits are these super cute toadstool mushrooms. I love incorporating decorations that come on a wire as they sit up on the branches, rather than dangle down. I bought them from my local christmas tree barn
6. Finally it wouldn’t be Christmas without bringing out all the golden oldies that bring that air of nostalgia.

How have you updated your tree this year. Let me know in the comments below!
