I’m a huge fan of British lifestyle brand Toast; their clothing and home accessories. I’m especially fond of their twice-yearly House & Home catalogue, which I wait for with bated bre...
Hello friends, long time no see! My one-week break from blogging turned into a rather extended absence. School, work and other commitments are piling up around here, but I’ve missed this space ...
If you haven’t yet heard of Livet Hemma, the lifestyle blog from Swedish furniture giant IKEA, you’re in for a real treat. Yes, it’s all in Swedish and I for one can’t underst...
It’s midweek, and I could use a little pick-me-up to see me through to the weekend. I’m a latte girl in the mornings and a macchiato one after noon, but let’s face it- there’s...
I was all set to post some lovely modern art on today’s Etsy Find when I stumbled across vintage kitchenware shop the fox and the spoon, and decided to change course. I know, I’m so predi...
I’ve been busy discovering lots of new design blogs lately, so I thought I’d exhume my old Blog Find column and share some of them with you… This week’s gem: Kim’s Kitch...
What with schoolwork and my new job, I’ve been a busy girl lately, leading (of course) to my current state of fatigue and illness. What I need right now? Comfort, in the form of tea, toast and ...
As far as I’m concerned, there is just one word for this kitchen: awesome. It was the higgledy-piggledy collection of upper cabinets which first got my attention, but my eye soon wandered to ot...
It’s been a while since I posted some vintage lovliness here, so this morning seemed like a perfect chance to share my latest Etsy find, 5gardenias vintage. This Buffalo, US-based shop sells a ...
I don’t usually focus on restaurants or commercial spaces here, but since I’ve been working on a bar/restaurant design at school this term, I guess it’s been on my mind. I was actua...
Maybe it’s the fact that there have been precisely two sunny days in London so far this year, but I’m craving a holiday something bad. And, you know me- it’s Southern Italy that I&#...
Karen Mordechai is the multi-talented lady behind Sunday Suppers, a name I’m sure many of you have heard before. The company was founded to provide cooking classes and dining experiences to luc...
I found this eclectic Stockholm kitchen over at Emma’s designblogg, who in turn found it at Koolandkreativ. Ok, I’ll admit the space is a bit nuts. It’s not to everyone’s tast...
Around this time of year design blogs become inundated with talk of “looking forward to Spring” and adoring “bright, happy colours”. I usually don’t participate in this;...
Holly always gives the best tips. Last week, she tipped me (along with her other 35,000 daily readers) off to Freunde von Freunden, and I couldn’t be happier about it. A bit like The Selby but ...
Happy New Year, everyone! My break went a little longer than originally planned, due to excessive snow in the UK, last-minute timetable changes and an impromptu trip home to Canada. I’m back in...
Hello, all. I hope you’ve been enjoying my gift guide this week, I’ve definitely been having fun pulling it all together. Today’s final instalment is Something Festive. No, it isn&...
Today is my favourite day this week, because we’re wrapping up retro in the 2010 Holiday Gift Guide. No, not everybody needs vintage in their life, but doesn’t everyone want some? Some of...
Time for an edible interlude, don’t you think? I like to give handmade foodie gifts at this time of year, and love finding yummy bits and pieces like chocolate and tea in my Christmas stocking,...
Hello, friends! Ready for some more Gift Guide action? Ok then, let’s dive in… While yesterday’s post was all about Wants, today’s is all about Needs, or at least gifts that s...
Good morning, Monday! I’ve got lots to do today, but before anything else, I’m kicking off Kitchenisms’ Holiday Gift Guide 2010. While useful and considered are all fine and well, I...
Hello, friends! I’ve missed you around here… yes, even while hard at work on school projects (final one due Tuesday!), I’ve been thinking about my poor neglected blog. I’ve al...
So I’m technically a day late with this, but I’m sure you’ll forgive me. After all, I’m not American so I can’t be expected to keep these things straight, can I? I saw t...
Anyone who’s picked up a recent copy of Living etc, likes to read about the lives of well-known design bloggers or even just enjoys browsing Flickr will immediately recognize this product. At l...
Hello everyone! I’m sorry it’s been quiet here for so long, school has been keeping me very busy lately. Still, it will be worth it in the end- perhaps when the rooms I share here are of ...
Over at The Kitchn, they’re in the midst of their annual Fall Cure. A whirlwind four weeks of cleaning, organizing and improving that I’ve never actually participated in, but like to watc...
It was a mention by Holly on her Haus Maus blog that turned me on to Etsy shop Gloaming Designs. Run by a Paris-based American expat, the whole shop is a lesson in vintage charm, photographic styling...
I like to tie up the week with an image-heavy post, and today’s gorgeous selection comes from the talented Tiina of Sparkling Ink. I can’t quite remember when I first stumbled across this...
The idea of mis-matching your dining chairs to your dining table is nothing groundbreaking. In fact, this eclectic look has become so de rigeur in recent years that it’s almost impossible to co...
Long-time readers will remember that I have a long-time love affair with “white and wood”. What they may not know is that I also harbour a love for UK product-and-furniture designer Russe...
