Highlights of the week here in Hampshire.

This week: house moves, time well spent, beauty treatments & painted butterflies.

1st July 2021

1. We are a step nearer heading to the Hampshire countryside as we accepted an offer on our Winchester house. Our buyer is Canadian {so the agent tells me} coincidentally I’ve been engrossed in researching my grandmothers birth in Canada. Everything is connected!

2. Spent my first time alone in the house since 2019. I read books, had treatments, wrote lists, listened to my favourite podcasts, watched films and visited the wonderful Richmond House Beauty.

3. We simultaneously had our offer accepted on the house we want to buy, it's near The Vyne {National Trust} in Hampshire. I have a photograph of me taken 30 years ago standing in the field where the house is now built, on the actual date our offer was accepted. Those connections!

4. Just loving this for my face. The whole Medik8 range is helping me fight my age.

5. I’m surrounded by painted butterflies, wild flowers and other graphics in my studio. I’m finishing the new stationery ranges. I can’t wait to share them with you in a few weeks.
