Gosh, it's been so long I hardly know what to post

Gosh, it's been so long I hardly know what to post...or, where to begin... 😳
.
Here's a good place, let's start with YOU... Are you well? are you managing OK in this (what feels like) endless lockdown? We're getting closer to some sort of freedom, I'm sure.🤞
I have really missed seeing so many of you at the various events I would usually exhibit at and cannot wait to get back out there, to reconnect and show you all our beautiful fresh new designs. ☺️
.
I must have made at least a hundred lampshade orders over the last couple of months (hence the radio silence on insta🤦‍♀️(oh.. plus I'm temporarily a private tutor to 2 inquisitive kids 😅 no complaints here though, I'm learning new things 🤣)).
I have been so touched by all the lovely comments, support and reviews customers have been sending me. It means the world to me🙏 thank you 🥰
.
What do you think of this fresh new lampshade I've just made for a customer using a natural linen from @peonyandsage on the outside and gorgeous @olive_daisy fabric on the inside... I 🤍 this!
Shall I add it to my website?
.
Take care of each other and I promise not to leave it so long next time x

🤔 Wow, can it be that I am actually ready for this already?? Apparently, not running around exhibiting at every Christmas event going, might actually have its benefits!!

RAINY AND SLOW SUNDAYS.....
The ideal time to hop online and get some shopping done with small businesses.

@millieandrosedesignsI've done mine and here were my favourites

That's it, they're on!!
I've just made ordering your Narnia classic spruce wreath even easier, so you can now buy yours via my online shop.
.
I put so much love into making these special for each and every customer. Fingerless gloves on, garden table out and off I go.... Humming festive tunes whilst creating these special traditional wreaths especially for you. 💚
.
I've also been super busy upgrading my website 🥴 so there are so many more gorgeous @millieandrosedesigns home decor and gifts you can get your hands on. Any feedback on my website would be so HUGELY appreciated as I built it myself 🤪 (I'm usually busy making lampshades so getting deeply intwined in techno tweaking was a major challenge 🧐... Hopefully it worked ok)
.
I also want to say a massive thank you to everyone that has supported my small business during these strange times. It means so much to me and so wonderful to know there is support for sustainable and ethically sourced small businesses 🙏 YOU are amazing and rock my world. 💙🌍💙

THE BELLS THE BELLS....
It's a lazy Sunday morning here, sipping my cup of tea in bed listening to the village church bells, there's something so comforting about their familiar ding dongings.
.
I'm pleased to be enjoying a sloooow morning as it's been a busyfull (my new word to describe the work/life juggle that I'm currently swept up in!) week.
.
I met some of my favourite regular customers at my store room yesterday and they left with a car crammed with new pieces👋👋 Then I got my busy-on and finished upcycling this stunning Indian hardwood cabinet. What do you think?
.
Have a sloooow and relaxing Sunday lovely people x

SHE'S THE CUTEST coffee table.
.
We have a gorgeous, one-off chunky wooden, rustic coffee table available on our online shop. Quick someone buy it......🙏 before I sneak it into my sitting room whilst my husbands not looking 🤭
.
It's full of character, we've kept the top natural and given the solid legs a fresh white, slightly distressed finish.
🤔Vase of handpicked foliage popped on the top and you've got the natural countryside right there!! If only this table could talk and tell us it's story!
.
DM if you need more details or check out our website.

WILD & WINDY SUNDAY
.
I met a few friends for a (rare these days😏) coffee, last week at the beautiful @weatheredandworn
.
I literally NEVER leave there empty handed, this time was no exception, as I found myself heading home, proudly clutching a bag of goodies including a French vintage grainsack. I have put 2 cushions in it and it's made the perfect bench cushion in front of my barn door.... What do you think?
.
Works perfectly next to one of my lampshades (made with @peonyandsage grainsack linen fabric).... It's a match made!
.
Have a cosy Sunday lovely peeps!

Yay... It's the weekend! Family time.
.
This is the time of year where we tidy up the garden, ready for the 'mucky months'.
Then we get 'cosy-home ready'. Decluttering the cupboards, freshening up the decor and restocking the blanket basket!
.
We LOVE Autumn, but we have to be 'house ready' as all our attention turns to magical countryside dog walks, open fires and foodie feasts.
.
Quality lighting can really make a space inviting and relaxing. Check out our recycled glass lamp in this beautiful entrance hall, I made a large coolie lampshade for this one using some beautiful vintage French linen.
.
Do you love Autumn? or are you still clasping on to the last of the summer?

Could this be the last summery weekend of this most unusual Summer of 2020?

Such a strange and uncertain world we live in. But, the constant levellers are: love, laughter and good people! You will always be rich if you have these things in your life.

Back to school vibes this week.
So, I'm sliiiiiiding into the weekend by retreating to my little familiar 'comfort corner' for a one way chat with my handcrafted Mr. Woody-Knows-it-all and a relaxing cup of Camomile tea! 🍵
.
Have you found this week easy to manage and feeling back on track or are you too weirded out by it all?

HAPPINESS HAPPINESS
.
Hi all, it's been a while (a busy while🤓) Hope you're all keeping well.
I just had to share this little area in my workshop, that made me really smile today.
My orchid has bloomed stronger, bolder and more elegant than ever 🤷‍♀️ no idea why,,,must be all the rambling 'creative chat' I've showered her with recently😅
A collection of handwoven sisal baskets (from my self help group of women) sitting happily under this upcycled vintage table (all for sale, DM if you need more details💙)
And a gorgeously warm handcrafted sustainable mango wood lamp dressed with one of my favourite simple French vintage lampshades I made earlier in the week, ready to cuddle this scene in a warm glow.
.
My small business is my beating heart💙, I get so caught up in caring about what I stock in my little shop and styling other people's homes with these thoughtful treasures, do you like to know the story behind the things you buy?
.
I've been so inspired to see so many thoughtful small businesses thriving in recent months💪...check these out if you haven't already.

Lucky Sally, with her newly installed garden irrigation system, means she can spend more time chilling here!
I've got a newly installed irrigation system!!!!.... in the form of a weeing puppy and kids chasing each other with the watering can and the occasional droplet of my sweat whilst trying to keep it all together😅. Same same, right?

Have a wonderful Tuesday... Eek... Bin day... Gotta go!!!

HERE'S A WARM CUDDLE
FROM ME TO YOU .
Isn't this just the perfect weather for getting cosy under a blanket and reading a book, or watching a movie...(or swiping through Instagram and absorbing up all it's beautiful offerings!?) .
Sorry I've been a little quieter than usual on here, but as you've probably seen from my recent stories we have a new little furry distraction here..our Little Beau.
.
She's very time consuming as she's just soooo super scrummy!
No poop in the house all week either 👏🎉👏👏 (tbh it feels like there's enough 💩 going on in the world right now without me having to tred in it, in my own home!! 😅)
.
Did you know a 'cosy up day' is essential for your all round good health?... I just made that up, but I like it and believe it, so I'll take it (especially after a ridiculous amount of wine last night during our family zoom quiz🥴) Talking of which how are you feeling today @pheasantfeatherart... You guys had me in stitches last night!!🤣) .
Enjoy the rest of your weekend

🌺TODAY WAS THE DAY🌺
(Watch out for the freaky claw hand🤏 😂) .
I've been waiting so patiently for a few more peonies to pop open before cutting one for in the house. They really are nature's art.As the peony season is so short I decided I néed to be able to enjoy them both day AND night. So here we have it...one little peony to enjoy in my home.
(and a few frantic black ants it seems too🐜 🤫🤭)
.
Have you dared to cut any peonies from your garden yet?Music: You Know
Musician: Jef
