  • Such a strange feeling of life on pause. . I’m noticing the dust sparkle in the spring sunshine. . The ticking of the kitchen clock - how have I not noticed it before? So loud 🤷‍♀️ . The chipped paintwork on doors and pondering whether anyone would notice if I painted them soft pink? . Also hair! I’m noticing my hair, day by day, mm by mm the grey appears. What are we doing about our hair people? . . . . #booksandflowers #gothictonic #moodybynature
  • I don’t like baths. . A virtual group I’m in ran a thread this week entitled Unpopular Opinions and this was mine. . I just don’t get them, I’ve truly tried. The candles, the bubbles, the glass of wine. But my hair frizzes and my fingers wrinkle. It begins too hot, ends too cold and my book is sure to get wet. . So go on, tell me your Unpopular Opinion? Do you hate avocado or not like Richard Curtis films? . . . #_momentsofmine #asecondofwhimsy #tinytinymoments
  • Posting on Instagram seems somehow frivolous and yet also soothing. And right now I guess we all need to find ways to soothe as we begin to navigate our way through a new kind of normal. . Do you have soothing tool kit? Mine contains knitting lace shawls, kneading bread, planting up pots of spring, photographing light and shadow, reading classics and making soup. . Tell me your soothing tasks, I think we may all need to pool our tool kits in days to come. What’s your top soothing activity? . . .. . #flowersandotherstories #gothictonic #excessivelydivertedbyflowers #moodofmywindow #simpleandbeautiful
  • When this new business of mine was just a seed of an idea and I wondered who I could try it out on, @amandabanhamceramics was top of my dream list. I decided to be brave and ask if she was up for it. . I feel incredibly lucky that she said yes. I couldn’t have had a better ‘guinea pig’ and since this first film I’ve been incredibly lucky to have had the most amazing clients. Exactly the sort of wonderful makers and creatives I dreamed about. . So the moral of the story is be brave and dream big. . I’ve written a post over on the blog. Link in bio...😊 . . . . . #honestlydocumented #folkandstory #worksoftheheart #minimondaymovies
  • Firstly, how is it Monday already? . . Secondly, please tell me I am not the only person in Britain who didn’t buy loo roll at the weekend. . Thirdly, if you saw my stories yesterday, you’ll know that I got the surprise of my life when this boy arrived at my front door. Two months earlier than expected. And that he appears to have grown even taller whilst overseas. Or I’m shorter than I think I am 🤷‍♀️ . . . #honestlydocumented #thephotographersnotebook
