At Home: Colour, Texture and Light
Days at home doing nothing much are my favourite kind of days. You know the ones spent in dressing gowns, comfy socks and unkempt hair? Bliss. Although I spent a good chunk of my bank holiday working on a new adventure, I did manage to rest up and got down to some serious house pottering. Here’s a few pictures of the small things in our home that make me happy right now. If you like a good nosy at other folks homes (like me), you can see previous posts, here, here and here, with lots more to come!
Sunny butter dish and hot cross buns.
Our new handmade pink knitted pouf c/o Habitat serves as the perfect foot rest, snack table and seat. With the dense cotton crochet knit it adds lovely texture too and is the perfect solution for adding alternative seating to our small and cosy lounge. The muted pink/grey colour fits in well with our lounge decor but I’m sure it would suit any scheme. No doubt, when the niece and nephew come over to play, it will create hours of amusement too!
Our trusty coffee machine and pops of colour from my favourite mugs.
Love our Orla Kiely canisters to add a little retro glamour to the kitchen top. Home to cereal, biscuits and tea!
Late evening light in our bathroom. Yes, that is a teapot.
Tote bag awesomeness
Crisp white bedding and a favourite magazine
Healthy snacks on pretty vintage china.
What’s making you smile in your home recently?

Lisa, you are keeping us in suspenders, what is your adventure? I need that Fox mug in my life, i have those canisters in the kitchen and they make me happy! AND now I want a teapot in the bathroom! x

Emailed you! P.s every bathroom deserves a teapot.

I’ve been really enjoying Spring Cleaning this year. I’m not sure if it’s because my home has been recently redecorated, but I spent a bit of time this weekend clearing out drawers and cupboards and feeling happy that I’d restored a bit more order to things.

I can’t wait to organise ours next week with my time off. Hopefully will be productive!
