Fresh look

We've been moving workshops and home recently and it got us thinking, it's amazing the things we collect and hold onto that we never really liked in the first place. The things that we were only going to use for a month or two, but now years on and it still sits there unused, ugly or broken. We make do, but never fully enjoy what could be in its place.

As we moved we were ruthless in our de-cluttering, refusing to take things with us 'just because'. And now, in our new home and workshop we're not rushing, making such each piece we find/buy is something we absolutely love. We've decided we'd rather make an investment into something we will cherish and enjoy, than just fill our home with 'stuff' that takes up space. Conceptually this way should be more costly, but in actual fact when we are not satisfied with what we have we are far more likely to keep buying until we are happy, thus filling our homes and wardrobes with stuff. By investing in quality we are more likely to love what we have and we are also unlikely to have to buy a replacement after just a few years as quality stands the test of time. 

Geoff is currently making us a new kitchen and walk-in-wardrobe (as apart of a wider new collection which we're looking forward to showing you) and so for now it's living out of boxes as I'm refusing to put anything in our home that we don't want long term.  

So why don't you join us in creating space, finding those pieces you adore and enjoying the serenity of home.
