Snap happy

Our fab friend (and excellent photographer) Graham popped over today to help us out with the huge backlog of photography that's built up as a result of all the exciting new products and and interesting fleamarket finds that we've collected over the last little while for the website. He did a stirling job (for this we thank you Graham) and only required a cuppa and the odd flapjack to keep him going all day long. Impressive. We're looking forward to seeing his snaps go live in the next few days.

Will spring cleaning hurry spring along?

We definitely think it's time that Spring started making an appearance. The snow was lovely, it was great to snuggle up in front of the fire during those long dark evenings, and a crispy, cold Christmas was exactly what we were after, but now it's just cold and damp and frankly a bit depressing. We're thinking that maybe starting a bit of Spring cleaning might hurry things along. Nothing too strenuous, just a bit of cleaning and polishing - in fact maybe we'll just do a bit of washing up, but make sure we look the part...

...a cute, inspirational tea-towel...

...a vintage pinny with a bit of 'Mrs Beeton' style...

...and a washing up brush that means business...

Phew. Time for a cosy cuppa and a bit of carrot cake. Washing down the walls and beating the carpets can wait.

Exposed

We've been spotted by some very stylish people, out and about in the chicest of cities....

...in London, Manchester and Birmingham's must have new weekly glossy 'Stylist'

Our knitted people cushion has made it into the Style list...

...and we're alongside a zebra, a guinea pig and some fabulous boots so we couldn't be happier.

Oval room blues

Our new favourite colour for January is this gorgeous blue from Farrow & Ball. Sitting somewhere between duck egg and winter sky it's popped up on one of our latest painted chairs and we can't get enough of it...

New vintage & revamped - coming soon

We're gathering some really exciting new pieces together for our f'leamarket finds collection. Once we've finished sprucing them up and giving them a facelift we'll unveil them on the site... (we can't wait!). Take a look here to see what we've got already.

We're Not On The High Street...

We're very excited because we've been included on fab interiors and gifts website Not On The High Street. It seems people are spotting us already and we're super-pleased to be listed on such a high profile webspace...
