Our home featured on The Design Files!

I can't tell you how excited I was to receive an email from Lucy at The Design Files asking to feature our home on her site. I've been a reader of The Design Files since we renovated our last home in London more than six years ago and have pinned so many pretty interior photos ...

Our family bathroom -- renovation details and final photos

We've moved into our new home! After three months of renovations, we are in, mostly unpacked and feeling settled. It feels beyond wonderful to have our own home again and to be able to put our stamp on all the little nooks and corners. And there is something about this house that just feels so ...

The most beautiful wooden animals by T-Lab

My husband returned home from an overseas work trip with these beautiful treasures of wooden animals. They are aesthetically captivating, so very soft, smooth, light as a feather, and lovely-to-hold. You wouldn't even realise they were wood at first. Perfect for tiny hands, with such lovely undulating curves, and the most fragile little hand-painted lines ...

Waiting for baby... our nursery corner

The waiting game has began! I'm nearly 39 weeks pregnant and it can be really any day now... or not! I always find these weeks around the due date so strange. All is quiet and calm, everything is more or less prepared for the arrival of the baby. And no one knows when or how ...

Here its founder Michaela W-B and her small, enthusiastic team busily create soft, organic things ‘for dreamers and adventurers’, many of which are designed for buying now and carrying on ...

Tips for decorating a teen girl's bedroom from Bodie and Fou

My friend Karine from Bodie and Fou got in touch last week to share her recent before-and-after renovation project of her daughter, Mila's bedroom. Mila is the same age as my eldest (and she's also really into surfing!) so it's always interesting for me to see the girl version of twelve years old. (I often marvel ...

Hand woven, sustainable rugs from Armadillo & Co.

Armadillo & Co. is an Australia-based company specialising in handmade rugs made from natural, sustainable materials.

Emily Hogarth's beautiful papercuts

I have followed Emily Hogarth and her adorable family on Instagram for the past couple years and have always loved the snippets I've seen of her beautiful papercut creations in her feed. So I was so excited when she got in touch last year and offered to create a custom papercut piece for us based on our travels. ...

My favourite brands from Byron Bay

There are roughly 9,000 people who live here in Byron Bay -- just over 30,000 if you include all the surrounding towns that make up all of Byron Shire. It is tiny! And yet, this little town is brimming with creative talent and beautiful brands. From designer furniture to stylish sandals, beach umbrellas to bikinis, and a ...

Making snowflakes, and some thoughts about embracing the seasons

Christmas is over, the New Year has been rung in -- it is January. It's slowly getting lighter, but it's still freezing cold and we're hoping for snow. Perhaps this is what the first months of the year are all about -- bundling up and going outside to play in the cold, and then retreating ...

Organic cotton baby quilts from Little Indi

A couple months ago I received a sweet email from Julia Kreienbühl, a young mama and textile designer from Switzerland. She wrote to introduce me to her range of beautiful organic blankets and her online boutique, Little Indi. I loved Julia's pretty textiles immediately and knew our readers would too. Julia sent me a baby blanket ...

Beautiful children's bedding from Sōm New York

At the New York ShopUp event this past September, I was approached by mother and designer, Hae Jeong, who mentioned to me that she was about to launch a small collection of children's bedding.

Saying goodbye to London...

We had many hopes for our year of world travel. We hoped for a slower pace of life. We hoped for more time with our kids. We hoped to learn more about our world and to return as changed people. This week we arrived back in London. For thirteen years we have called this city ...

Travel memories captured with Little Square Gallery

As much as I promised myself I would take more photos with my 'proper' camera this year, the reality is that an iPhone is just too easy! I've tried to use my camera to capture the beautiful scenery and sights along our journey, but my iPhone is what I end up using for quick snaps ...

British-made mattresses from Eve Mattress

My husband and I moved from America to London five years ago with our newborn baby girl, Charlotte. We optimistically moved into an unfurnished flat and then began the daunting task of furnishing the place from scratch! I was unfamiliar with the brands and shops in this new country, and really had no clue where ...

Llamas!

My friend Lisa just sent me a link to Larry the Llama at Land of Nod with a note telling me it reminded her of the fluffy llamas we recently saw in Santa Cruz, Chile. Yes!! It's so true! How cute is Larry?! The perfect little ride-on toy/decór object! It makes me wish I had children's bedrooms ...

My friend Mo, who owns Pipsticks and whom I've written about before (here), is expecting a baby girl (her fourth baby!) any day now.
