the gentle ache of saying goodbye

Flying the nest

the importance of getting together with like minded souls when you work alone

In The Company Of Women

that whole word of the year thing

What’s in a word

a taste of summer to see you through the year.

Small things that brought me joy this week gone by

My Week Of Happy

do we need more time to feel successful?

The measure of success

learning that it's ok to dream big, or even medium sized.

Dare to dream

Why it's ok to indulge your creativity and not feel guilty

Creativity

a mid year pause, slow down and enjoy the roses

The beautiful month of June

Finally I found a way to answer the question "and what do you do?"

Hello and thank you so much for dropping by

Hello

  • I have a jug habit. I own many jugs in varying sizes. I tell myself they each have a purpose so it’s absolutely fine. . This one is purposed as a water jug for whiskey. It’s an entirely legitimate purpose. . I do have another one just the same. . In case two of us are drinking whiskey. . It occurs to me it would also be excellent for an individual salad dressing. So I may need to buy a third. . . . . #stilllife_gallery #simplepleasuresinlife #pocketsofslow
  • It feels so odd and somehow wrong to swing back into social media today after the devastating events in New Zealand. As more details of the victims continue to come in everything else seem so insignificant. Especially the continued political bickering amongst our own politicians. . Alongside the terrible roll call of the dead came stories of love and compassion too. But we must not forget. We cannot sweep it all under the carpet as time moves on. We must keep working, keep striving to be better. To educate and unite. To always choose love and compassion over anger and mistrust. . . . . . . . #believeinpeace #waystostrive
  • So did you experience the Instagram outage? What did you do with your extra hours? . I wrote a book, knitted a sweater, discovered the meaning of life. . Not really of course, but it did make me think about what I did before ..... there was definitely more knitting and reading. . . . . . #styleonstillness #pocketsofslow #awhisperedbeauty #flowersandotherstories #aslowmoment #livethelittlemoments #slowlifediary #lostinthelightclass #beautyofstillmoments #cupsinframes #coffeestoriesandflowers
  • That thing when you don’t post on the gram for over a week and then it feels all weird to step back in. . I’ll be mostly avoiding the news today, how about you? . . . . #awhisperedbeauty #seeing_the_ordinary #mybloominglens #styleonstillness #justbefloral #nestandflourish #aconsideredhome #the_gentle_manifesto #beautyofstillmoments #flowersandotherstories
  • A couple of weeks ago I got to hang out with @amandabanhamceramics in her studio and made this little film of her working. Amanda is exactly as you might imagine. Funny, warm, welcoming and pretty darned brilliant at what she does. . I’m late to the party (always) but tying this in with the #marchmeetthemaker2019 challenge as it is definitely my current favourite thing to make. I decided towards the end of last year to be brave and follow my dream to make photography and film a part of my business. I’m still making textile based products but slowly working in this new strand to my business. . Because you only live once. . . . . . #hurrayforplay #wholeheartedliving #talesofthemoment
