I realised recently that I have talked about MADE’s products in numerous posts before and yet, for some unknown reason, I’ve never dedicated a post to their wares. Really, that’s a shortcoming on my own part because if you have been hiding under a rock somewhere and weren’t aware of just how much amazing design they have, I have done you a disservice. So I’m going to rectify that in today’s post.

The Tilia Quilted Kingsize Bed in Dust Pink from MADE

You may know already that the in my recent bedroom makeover post (which many of you loved so HUGE thank you for that), MADE provided that beautiful bed for my makeover, making it possible for me to create a unique space that I absolutely love. It was such an intrinsic part of that design and the room just would have been so much less without it and so I was thrilled to partner with them.

But it’s not just the aesthetics of the bed that appealed to me (although admittedly, that tends to be my focus a lot of the time – I’m a very visual person!), the actual build of the bed was fantastic and I was incredibly impressed by the quality, just as I have in the past with other pieces from them that I have in my home.

In fact, my very first purchase with MADE was the Yoko sofabed which you might remember from our Man Cave. It was originally purchased more than 5 1/2 years ago. When we sold our home, the new owners wanted to keep it (it was perfectly compact for the space!) and so we left it for them. Amazingly enough for the price, it was still going strong all those years later. That’s how long I’ve loved this brand!

My β€˜fantasy office space’ included the Vernay Console Desk, Vera Metal Table Lamp, Normos Stationary Set, Beaumont Tapered Vase in Gold, Badden Storage Pots, Golden Perspective Wall Art from MADE

And yes, there have been plenty of other pieces I’ve both purchased and received from MADE. Remember my β€˜fantasy office space’ that I created? So much of what you saw was carefully chosen from their vast selection for the collaboration, which spans the entire home sphere. They carry everything from lighting to cushions, art and storage, seating to bedding, serveware to towels and even leisure products like travel bags and bicycles (yes really!).

In my living room, the Margo accent chair in Pewter, the Beaumont Small Tapered Vase in gold and the Austin floor lamp in Brass, all by MADE. The lamp and chair I purchased myself; the vase was part of the β€˜fantasy office’ collaboration above.

And let me tell you, it’s hard to narrow down your choices when it comes to their selection because there are just so many amazing products on their site. They currently have almost 100 external design collaborators large and small that they work with. This allows them to bring great design to everyone at incredibly affordable prices whilst still adhering to strict ethical controls including a zero-tolerance approach to any kind of exploitation throughout their supply chain worldwide.

And, yes, the price points are incredible. I have used their products in a myriad of design mood boards – from my β€˜Design for the Modern Man’ to my glam rooms on 3 different budgets – MADE’s products fit in seamlessly from bargain basics to beautiful mid-range pieces that rival many of the products you’ll find on luxury design websites.

The Tilia bed was one such collaboration with design duo Jack Smith and Gemma Matthias (Smith Matthias) who met whilst studying Furniture Design together in Sheffield. They opened their design studio in 2012 where they concentrate on β€œthoughtful and quietly confident” designs that act as a β€œsubtle backdrop to life; simple, accessible pleasures that are a balance of quality and affordability”. Made’s access to Smith Matthias and so many other design studios shows their commitment to bringing great design to the masses – whether that’s a piece of furniture or a beautiful hand-crafted plate – more achievable than ever.

A few current favourites from MADE

I thought I’d share just a very small sample of some of the gorgeous pieces currently on their website. Let me tell you – narrowing this down to just a handful of favourites was HARD. I almost always find items that I love as new products and designs are released all the time.

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!

One of my favourite ways to add a feeling of comfort and relaxation is with glorious touchable textures and the stunning Mulberry Silk ruffled cushion from French Bedroom not only looks spectacular but feels incredible too! Pairing this with other feel-good fabrics will add depth to your design and will beg you to sink in and unwind 😍

French Bedroom are also now stocking my own home fragrance brand @swoonworthyscents candles, adding another element of calm with scent to your home. I chose No 02 Sunday Morning for my living room with rejuvenating Jasmine and refreshing pine and lemon notes πŸ₯°

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₯°

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
