First off, sorry about my sporadic posting recently – I’ve had a bit of a stressy week last week and fell a bit behind on my schedule but happy to say things are starting to look up. We are hoping to have a move date soon and while it will be a few weeks’ later than we’d planned, at this moment in time, I’ll take any bit of good news! In the meantime, I’ll just be posting as and when I can!

As I’m struggling to shoot much these days considering the house is in a bit of chaos, I figured I’d do a little roundup post. You know how much I love plants in my home. The boho side of my style generally comes out to play with the number of plants I have hanging around everywhere and whilst we’ve been packing, I’ve decided to β€˜retire’ a few that just were looking a little sad and dead (whoops). The long dark winter combined with the dryness of having to have the heating on all day hasn’t helped of course and I always seem to lose a few over the winter months.

Gold Plant Stand on Black Console with Leigh Viner Print and Gold Accents

A couple of my hardy survivors – a spider plant in this gorgeous gold raised planter and a Mother-in-Law’s Tongue in a simple white pot. The print you can find here and the candle is a DIY found here. The sideboard, sadly, is no longer in production.

After the crazy β€˜Beast from the East’, temperatures are set to rise again and then Spring will be here and it’s really the perfect time to update any plant collection! I’ve been gathering together all my β€˜still in good shape’ plants and some of the empty planters I have and it looks like I’ll be plant shopping again once we move. I can’t pretend that I’m not excited – I love adding to my collection and it’s a good excuse, right?

Outdoor styling with raised pot plant in gold

Dreaming of summer here but you can see one of my raised planters above (which have since moved inside!) – the Spun Gold planter from West Elm which I used to style my back deck last year.

So whilst I’m waiting to do that, I thought  I’d take a little look at some of my favourite raised plant stands on the market at the moment.

I love that a raised stand gives your plants some height. When you are styling with plants, it’s always good to vary the heights of your objects. This allows your eye to move across the area rather than stagnate when everything is exactly the same height. So a raised planter gives you an opportunity to do just that. Plus? They are just super stylish right now and look amazing in the home. Here are 12 of the best plant stands I found in my search…

So let’s talk some of my favourites!

Eden Cross Base from West Elm

standing planter from West Elm

I genuinely can’t decide whether I prefer the black or the white versions of this so perhaps I should just treat myself to one of each (any excuse, really)…? The brass stand creates such a stunning geometric juxtaposition against the curves of the pot and would look delicious in a sunny corner.

Ferm Living Plant Box in Rose

I adore the colour of this soft pink plant stand and you can buy an additional brass shelf that fits perfectly on top to create a beautiful shot of blush in a room. While Scandinavian style is not normally my bag, I could happily make an exception for this one!

Solstice Plant Stand from Wyld Home

Urban Nature Cultuer Tall Solstice Plant Stand

I love the 70’s vibe this is giving off and it’s one I’m seriously considering buying. The best part is that I realised the store that stocks them – Wyld Home – is actually going to be local to me in Shrewsbury. Oh yes, definitely a shop I’m going to need to visit!

Signe Tall Planter from Urban Outfitters

Pink and Nude Raised Plant pot from Urban Outfitters

And finally, this gorgeous ceramic raised plant stand from Urban Outfitters which is just so unusual with such stunning details. At Β£120, it’s pricey but at over a foot tall it’s definitely a head turner.

So those are just a few of my favourites out of a whole bunch of gorgeous raised plant stands that I’ve found in my search. I’d love to know which are your favourites of the ones I’ve chosen? And will you be doing some plant shopping this Spring? Which plants – hardy or otherwise – have you got your eye on? You know how much I love to hear from you!

Ad (Press Sample) There are few kitchen products that are considered absolute classics but there is one that I have lusted after for YEARS and that is the utterly iconic @lecreusetuk large casserole pot. 🀩

For nearly a century, Le Creuset has been trusted for its superior performance, lasting quality and iconic design and the enamelled cast iron allows incredible versatility - not only can you use it with just about any heat source (from induction, glass, electric etc), you can also do everything from stir-fry to slow cooking to baking a cake in it and more. 

So, imagine my delight when Le Creuset got in touch to ask if I'd like to shoot their brand new colourway πŸ‘ PΓͺche πŸ‘ in my kitchen. I mean, there couldn't be a more perfect colour match with that juicy coral shade which if you've followed my account for any length of time, you'll know is one of my all-time favourites (not to mention that beautiful soft gold knob! 😍). The matching petite casserole dish and mugs are the perfect companions but you could easily mix and match this colourway with Le Creuset's other designs (Might I suggest the Sea Salt, a soft blue-green which would be gorgeous with PΓͺche). This new juicy summer shade is currently available exclusively at Le Creuset Official. I'd love to know which colourway is your favourite in the range?

I've really loved making these pretty reusable Christmas crackers! I'm still in the process of finding cute bits for filling them but they'll definitely be a centrepiece for my table this year!πŸŽ„πŸ’•

Suggestions for what to fill them with coming soon!

(By the way, I'm not a skilled seamstress so I'm sure my techniques can be improved but just sharing what worked for me πŸ€—πŸ˜…)

Let me know if this is something you'd try? ❀️

DIY REFILLABLE CHRISTMAS CRACKERS πŸŽ„πŸŽ‰

I've been thinking about making refillable crackers for so many years now - I just hate the waste the disposal ones create! So I'm so excited I've finally gotten around to starting this project!

I will be sharing more details on how to make them as well as ideas for what to fill them with too so stay tuned for more but in the meantime, what do you think?

Just wanted to introduce my latest plant baby in my dining room πŸͺ΄

It's from @botanique_shrewsbury and it's a Peparomia (I am probably pronouncing it wrong, I keep wanting to say
GUEST BEDROOM REVEAL 🌟

I decided on a whim, 2 weeks before we were expecting visiting family, that our guest bedroom was in desperate need of a refresh.

Well there's nothing like an impending deadline to light a πŸ”₯ under my πŸ‘ and I managed to clear out the clutter, repaint the woodwork, ceilings and walls and hang wallpaper as well as restyle the room in one week πŸ˜… (Meisha was zero help 😼)

I'm calling it Boho Vintage Victorian Grandma πŸ˜†

This wasn't sponsored in any way but the wallpaper and bedding is from @lauraashleyuk and the paint is @earthbornpaints Peach Baby - everything else I already had!

What do you think of the new look? ❀️

πŸ”₯JOIN US ROUND THE FIRE PIT! πŸ”₯

ad | One of my favorite things to do in summer is sit around the fire pit in the evenings with a cold beer 🍻 There's just something incredibly relaxing watching those flames and embers crackle, warming yourself up and taking the edge off falling temperatures as the sun sets!

Thanks to @homefireuk they've made the whole process incredibly easy and enjoyable with their Handy Firepit Bundle which include 2 bags of kindling, 2 bags of natural firestarters and 3 large bags of kiln-dried logs πŸͺ΅ for a really great price! 

No more standing around waiting for things to light properly or billowing smoke from wet wood, everything burns beautifully! ☺️ We literally sat around this for hours as the logs last so long, long after the sun set, just chatting and enjoying ourselves! πŸ₯°πŸ»πŸ”₯

Do you love a good firepit in the summer?

Ad 🩷 Before and after Deck makeover! 🩷

This little decked patio was looking worse for wear after a wet winter but @frenchicpaint came to the rescue with their beautiful Dusty Blush Alfresco Paint, perfect for all your outdoor projects!

The deck has been a few colours over the past few years but this is definitely the most fun and gives the whole space such a tropical vibe - even in Shrewsbury! 🏝️ πŸ¦©πŸΉπŸ˜„

The paint has incredible coverage and was so nice to use - I loved the tools they provided too, especially the oval brush which got into all the nooks and crannies easily!

Let me know what you think of the new colour!

So on a whim I decided to paint the bedroom pink yesterday πŸ˜…πŸ©·

This room has been neglected for so long as I've wanted to fully redecorate for about 3 years now but there are always other bigger priorities or a lack of time/energy/money so I keep putting it off πŸ™ƒπŸ™ƒπŸ™ƒ (tell me I'm not the only one) but happily this didn't cost a penny as I used what I already had although it did take me the best part of a day!

I went through my paint stash and found that I had extra @coatpaints Percy from when I did the living room early last year -- well I'm not one to let something this good go to waste (honestly this paint is absolutely wonderful to work with and has amazing coverage) and my goodness it's just so pretty in here πŸ₯° I also moved my pink curtains from my office into here and the whole room just glows!

I might actually be able to live with the mural a little longer until the room gets the attention it deserves! Let me know if you like the change β™₯️

*For those who are wondering, it used to be white walls and I had grey curtains! πŸ˜…

ad How to De-stress at Home in 6 Simple Steps 😊

April has been #stressawarenessmonth and so I've teamed up with the wonderful @frenchbedroom to share a few simple tips in creating a cosy sanctuary at home!

Pairing this with other feel-good fabrics will add depth to your design and will beg you to sink in and unwind 😍

Finally managed to get the gallery wall completed in our hallway!

I couldn't have been happier with @violajayphotography capturing our little intimate wedding in October and knew as soon as I saw the photos I had to print them for our home! I admit, I've never been one to hang photos but it's probably because all we ever had after 14 years together was selfies πŸ˜‚πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ I'm so pleased we finally have some lovely shots of us together πŸ₯°

Do you have photos of you/your partner/your family up around your home?? πŸ€”

✨These little vintage copper pans needed some TLC! ✨

After searching for a while for vintage copper pans, I found these on eBay - they looked quite grim on the ad but I knew they could be shined up nicely! A little @barkeepersfriend later (not an ad!) and I'm loving how they look in my kitchen πŸ₯°

Let me know if you like the new addition ❀️

Oh hey living room, nice to have you back ☺️

I always feel very ready to remove the excess of Christmas decor pretty much as soon as the 26th arrives but I've been later than usual this Twixmas as we've both been unwell the last couple weeks πŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™€οΈ Nevertheless, I've managed to get things packed away and I styled this little faux arrangement today for my coffee table so ya know, small victories πŸ˜„πŸ™ŒπŸ½
