Each month I reflect on what’s been happening for 1O 1O 1O, sharing what I am grateful for and looking to the month ahead.

February has seen two seasons come together. The beginning saw snow and cold temperatures - we even managed a snowlady! But now at the end of the month, it feels like spring is starting which feels me with optimism for the year ahead.

In the Garden

Here in the UK, the restrictions have been relaxed slightly, allowing small gatherings in gardens with social distancing (up to 6 people). This will allow some of our upcoming design consultations to be face to face in gardens. Project No. 3A is now starting back up and I look forward to sharing progress photos over on our Instagram feed. Other projects you can look forward shortly include the refurbishment of a tired semi-detached 1930's house with a new-build next door. What can I say - we've been busy!

Latest Style Snaps

Omg, have you seen AF's latest offerings? Whilst browsing for birthday presents for Scotty, I ended up shopping for myself! Here's just a taster of some of the newness including such cute dresses and gorgeous prints! I’ve left the links on the photos for easy browsing - no affiliate just love :).

Life By Design*

This month’s newness we can’t be without are fluted glassware. We've loved this trend for some time now as it gives the pieces a vintage feel without being too fussy. Now, these are becoming more widely available in dishwasher safe and cheaper formats. For everyday items like these, it's best to opt for something durable! Here's a selection of the styles on offer starting at just £15 for a pack of 4.

It’s All is Good

With spring here and the odd day of sunshine, my mood has certainly lifted. I'm making a conscious effort to walk at least 5 times a week if not every day and keep up with my training. I am beginning to see results and feel better for it. It's leading to making better lifestyle choices that I am confident will stay - because I want them to.

I'll be ordering the Shift necklace by Komuso as suggested by my fiance to help with my breathing exercises and mindfulness. If he's lucky I might order one for him as well! What will you try this month? How can you find inner peace and what makes you happy? Try to cultivate these feelings and let's check back in next month. Beck x
