You may remember that we headed off on a shop shopping trip a few weeks ago, returning full of ideas, excitement and inspiration.  

Well our purchases have slowly started to arrive in our little shop and online so here are a few of this weeks favourites ..

Fig handwash .. smells divine and doesn't contain any baddies so is also kind to your hands ... the packaging is rather gorgeous too. £12

Pretty Moroccan glasses £3.99

Traditional wooden flower presses, I  am sure I had one of these as a little girl, from £11.50

And how beautiful are these roses which we bought for the shop this morning .. Memory Lane incase you wondered xx

Even though the good old English weather may have missed the memo, it’s now officially spring which means the very welcome sight of lighter, longer days. Outside is starting to look a little more colourful and we’ve got the early morning bird chorus waking us from our slumbers.

And, on those days where mother nature decides to play ball and shower us with some sunshine instead of rain, we love nothing more than taking life a little slower; popping on the kettle and enjoying a brew alfresco with a good book in our hands.

Handpicked ...Simple, Sustainable and Seasonal flower arrangements. This book arrived recently and is so beautiful, inspirational and caused such a flurry of excitement,  that a copy is most certainly going in my basket and coming home with me.
