Lately: News, Exhibitions and Weekend Planning

Every couple of weeks I pick up a new plant or flowers for the home. I’m mesmerised by the Hyacinths on our windowsill.

My Cardboard Cities tote bag arrived from Society 6 and I’m so pleased with it. It’s the best quality tote bag I’ve ever owned (high praise indeed!) and the design is magical.

Carex kindly sent me a winter supply of their brand new antibacterial hand creams. Once applied, they are both really light and absorb quickly. I do prefer the Hydrate and Protect scent though, much fresher and more up my street!

Hurrah for Christmas editions!

I stumbled upon this fantastic print maker, Helen Peyton, in Skipton the other week. Bookmarked!

Love or hate? LOVE! Le sigh.

Christmas has launched at Heart Gallery! There are so many delights to be found in this beautiful space and many talented designer-makers (and awesome staff – ahem) to inspire you!

Seasonal inspired work by Nicola Taylor, Beverley Gee, Stef Storey and Andy Poplar.

Angela Smyth’s original paintings are now in the gallery!

This chap by Jane Strawbridge makes me smile.

Laura Crook’s ceramic (and personalised) hearts to pop in your home and on your tree!

Hmm what else? Well, we’ve had some great news. The OH has got himself a new job, and it’s a pretty good one! Words can’t describe how proud I am of him. It fills my heart with glee seeing how happy he is. Yeah!

Also, we’ll be spending this weekend dog sitting for a puppy Beagle called Buddy. Buddy is causing a little mayhem at his home so we’re having him for a long weekend and will be taking him on lots of walks to see how we get on with the little pup! I’m sure I’ll bore you all with pictures on Twitter, Dayre and Instagram. I have warned you.

Anyhoo, I better dash. Wishing you all a happy Thursday!
