River Cottage HQ
It was just below freezing when I walked out this morning. Now I love a clear, frosty day but all this rain has made me pine for warmer, sunnier times. I’ve started to crave the soft, hazy glow of a late summers afternoon with the sweet smell of honeysuckle in the air and ripe fruit hanging from the trees. So in an attempt to warm us all up, I’m re-visiting one of my favourite … [Read more...]
Oak Engraved USB’s
I love beautiful things. I love finding beauty in anything and everything, from the simplest smile to a gentle touch to the way the light falls into darkness. It is my passion and my purpose.

It has also been a year when my business became more beautiful and glitter-filled. So I’m going … [Read more...]
Pynes House
Have you ever walked into a house and felt as though you have been transported straight into a storybook. There is something about Pynes House that is dreamlike…..maybe it’s the large windows that flood each room with a gentle light, the chandeliers that hang opulently from the ceilings or the soft, muted tones of each room that make you never want to leave. I can honestly say … [Read more...]
