1. FIND YOUR INSPIRATIONFirst get inspired, and there is no better place for this than Pinterest. I start by pinning everything to a secret board; food decorations, games/activities – anything of relevance that fits the theme, in this case; fairies. There is definitely a fine line between being inspired and becoming overwhelmed; this is where…
UPDATED 5th April 2021 – For the original reveal we left the bath tub peach, adding other warm tones in the bathroom to soften it, but on completion of this bathroom leaving the bath as it was took away from the other work we did. So we made the call and decided to get it…
If you read our 2021 project list, you’ll have noticed that we’ve significantly veered off course, and that our bathroom wasn’t even on the list! Haha. But taking one look at our bathroom might give you some idea as to why we hastily added it to the list…. but really it came down to having…

This is only the second garden I’ve ever designed and its a big learning curve. The thing I’ve found with designing gardens is that it can be really overwhelming. Gardens are multi-functional spaces, there is a lot to consider and so many ways you could take it. So rather than looking at the space as…
I knew I wanted to create some kind of centrepiece for the food table at my daughters first birthday party, and with the theme ‘Dream Big Little One’ chosen, I knew as soon as I saw this image on Pinterest that I’d found my inspiration. So I set about recreating my own version of it,…
