I hate ironing, but it's become much less of a chore since I started using it to catch up on my favourite podcasts. So this afternoon I finished all the ironing, because when you have a lovely new speaker from @urbanears , inspiring stuff to listen too AND a packet of peanut cookies to keep you going it's really not that bad. What podcasts are you listening to at the moment? #Urbanears #ConnectedSpeakers
I've really appreciated being able to spend so much time out in the garden in the evenings this summer. It's a fairly small space so I've chosen plants with this in mind and gone for architectural shapes rather than lots of flowers - everything has to earn its keep all year round. I found it surprisingly difficult to track down nice pots for larger plants like these box balls. In the end I discovered these faux granite planters at @coxandcox . They are the perfect size and shape and are light enough to move around easily. A really good find. #designhunterhome
We headed up to the Peak District recently with @whippet_bicycle and called in on @davidmelloruk This is their beautiful design studio and library which isn't open to the public but we were lucky enough to be given a private tour. I just love the way the soft light falls on the stone walls here. What an amazing space this must be to work in. More over on Stories and at @whippet_bicycle . #whippetbicycle #mystoryoflight
If you hate clutter and only want to have one or two beautiful things out on display in your bathroom you could make worse decisions than choose the gorgeous Apothecary collection from @lobjet . PS - it smells amazing too. More over on the blog (link above). #designhunterhome #lobjet #parfumsdevoyage
Joining in with @allison_sadler_ 's #freeupmyinsta again. Today's theme is YOU, so this is me. I've never been a "look at me" type of person - I've always avoided the limelight. I have been making a conscious effort to show up in my feed a bit more lately though. As a 40 something woman it's tempting to hide behind other things on social media. Lots of us are far more comfortable sharing pictures of our homes, our pets or our children, but women shouldn't feel that they have to become invisible as they get older, so here I am doing what you'll often find me doing, sitting deep in thought. I'm a classic Pisces - always trying to avoid over stimulating environments and happiest lost in a world of my own.
My happy place is on the tennis court. I've loved watching tennis all my life but never learned to play as a child. I was over 40 when I first picked up a racquet a few years ago. I found myself a wonderful coach who was kind, patient and encouraging even when I was a completely hopeless beginner, and slowly I began to learn. I've played at least twice a week ever since. I play all year round even in the depths of December. As long as it's not raining or snowing you'll find me out there on the court. I never feel more alive than on those days when I'm striking the ball cleanly, moving around freely and finding that magical sweet spot. On those days it is just the best place in the world to be. And even though I would love to be at Wimbledon this week (I missed out on my club's LTA ticket ballot again this year), for me the real joy is in playing not watching. You're never too old to learn something new. #myhappyplace #freeupmyinsta #GoHitIt
Had to have a little siesta this afternoon. Anyone else struggling to work in this heatwave? #designhunterhome
Nothing quite like striding out in new sandals with a straw basket to swing when the weather is nudging up towards 30°. #summervibes #designhunterwears
