We recently quite literally set the stage for a performing arts business. Well when I say set the stage, I mean we re decorated their building. It was a joy! They went above and beyond in clearing the space for us, even taking their lighting down. What an amazing start to a great project! This […]
I just paid our liability insurance premium, as we do every year. Thankful that we’ve never had to use it. Accidents can happen. Don’t get me wrong, we’ve had some near misses. Like recently when david was spraying an industrial unit and the ladder fell away from the roof he was on. I was worried […]
Gone are the days where we assign a colour to a gender. My favourite colours have always been green and blue, and david looks amazing in pink! The same goes for colour palettes for your space. The feature wall in my living room is teal. A close friend of mine has a full pink hallway, […]
Just a couple of weeks ago I was questioning the weather, look at us now! Early morning dog walks and windows open all night long, we can acclimatise, but can our decorating materials? Did you know? Did you know that in the building trade it’s easy to tell what time of year a house was […]

A few years ago I read a book called the end of big. It predicted that with the use of social media, big press organisations and many of the goings on in our world would no longer be governed by the government. It stated that social media platforms would share unfiltered information as it unfolded […]
When it comes to decorating there’s nothing I love better than a newly plastered, so smooth it almost shines, wall…. But that’s only achievable once. As soon as paint is applied by a roller or brush, texture appears as well as paint. To get as close to that freshly plastered look again, you almost certainly […]
House visitor. Last week we had the pleasure of dog sitting our dog sitters beautiful black lab Mollie ❤️ She was a joy and a proper dog, looking to snuggle at your feet and enjoy lots of affection! Hamish was so excited to have a visitor he’s ended up with happy tail 🫣 for those […]
In the ardent family celebrating birthdays and milestones is a big deal! We all love a cake, a banner some bunting and of course balloons!!! Although it wasn’t until I met David that I realised how important it is to make sure you don’t ruin your every day decoration for a shorter lived event…… […]
