Scrumptious greys/grays and warming tones of wood…yum.

We have decided on a new engineered wooden floor throughout our apartment, upstairs and down. Engineered because it’s so much easier to put down and it will “float” on top of what is already down so there is far less mess involved. Polished concrete and resin were considered but it would be horrendous while the work was carried out and ridiculously expensive! So the search is on for the right one, we may be a while!…

Happy (Bank Holiday if you are in the UK) weekend everyone.

…and all things at a bargain price. I’ve been on the hunt for deliciousness and it’s proven to be quite fruitful lately.

Firstly I’ve wanted an Eames House Bird for so long so I treated myself from the ever helpful Momentum in Cardiff with a cheeky little discount.

We were away last weekend for a friends birthday, the Wi-Fi in the hotel wasn’t brilliant but I managed to get my hands on the rather gorgeous eight inch Cathrineholm bowl for £21 on Ebay! It’s in superb condition too. David isn’t keen on it though and said it would look right at home in a Romany gypsy caravan!

I’ve had a thing for drawers recently (the wooden storage kind!) and I came across the Fineline drawers designed by John & Sylvia Reid for Stag in the 60’s. I’m thinking either for the spare room or maybe in my loft/studio. Oh yes, the price….£51! Ebay.

Last but not least the Hornsea Alpine range vinegar pot, the inside of the top and the triangle pattern is a very nice dark charcoal grey and it cost me £7.67. Ebay.

Happy bargain hunting and have a great weekend everyone.






Happy Friday!

It’s been a very busy few weeks around here. I’ve been working with a NYC based company on an exciting project and all will be revealed soon. Orders have been flooding in for my Instant series of prints and I haven’t stopped. They’ve sold like hot cakes!

We nearly moved! It was a mad moment on Easter Sunday afternoon after viewing a townhouse but we love our apartment so much that we have decided to stay put and finish it once and for all. So over the next few months you will be seeing us ripping up flooring, ripping out the en-suite (again!) and generally getting it to where we want it to be…at last.

Anyway, happy weekend! have a good one.
