Kew Gardens

Over the Easter break M and I decided to head over to Kew to wander around the botanical gardens and visit our favourite restaurant.

The weather wasn’t particularly great but there’s something about the royal jardin that is just so lovely no matter what time of year it is.

I am going to make a promise to visit more often.

Whistle while you work!

I can often be found staring absently out of the window dreaming of a life in the country away from the Big Smoke.

If I did live in a woodland cottage I’m sure that I would be able to throw my windows open Snow-White style and all the little animals will flood in and do my housework.

Until then I’ll get myself some of these wall stickers and squint so I can’t see the mess.

DIY Decals

Loving this fab little tutorial from The Beauty Department.

Simple, inexpensive and creative...so long as you have a steady hand.

An carnival of prints?

While attending the Ideal Home Exhibition in London's Earls Court at the weekend I saw a stand with some of these prints by Woop.

I really fell for their colourful mix of illustration and typography and was surprised to learn that some the talented people behind this also had a hand in the the magic of the Harry Potter movies.

I challenge you to peruse their large range of collective nouns or constellations and not want one for your home.

Did you know that a group of spiders is called a Venom?

Me neither...kinda makes me like them even less.

Oh and if you're buying an unframed print delivery is free worldwide. Nice!
