Before I head off for a much-needed weekend away from the computer screen, I wanted to share an image that’s inspired me this week. This little vignette instantly caught my eye when I stumbled across it on the Rockett St George website – partly because I love the Visuelle v/Ragnhild Furulund prints it shows (in fact, I’ve just ordered both of them!), but also because the styling is my ideal . . .
Home tour | Shades of grey in Bristol
One of my favourite discoveries over recent months has been Between Dog and Wolf, which sells a beautiful selection of design-led homeware and accessories from all over the world.

Hanging planters
There’s a pesky little corner of my kitchen that’s very hard to dress – it’s too small to do much with, but it looks very stark without any decoration.
