Welcome to the fourth instalment of our apartment tour, today featuring our terrace.  In case you missed it you can see the first three posts in the New London Flat series here; Living Room Tour, the Master Bedroom Tour, and the Guest Bedroom Tour.  One of the things we liked most about this flat was the massive balcony that extends the entire length of the flat.  The doors extend ...

Hallway of London Flat

Thank you for all of your kind words on the first two iteration of our new flat tour featuring our Living Room and our Master Bedroom.  It has now been more than three months since we moved though it feels like longer than that as we have been working from home now for 13 weeks - it is a lot of time in this space!

New London Flat Bedroom Tour

Thank you for all of your kind words on the first iteration of our new flat tour featuring our Living Room.  I am going to say it again here, I am SO thankful that we moved in just before the quarantine - the new flat is so much bigger than my old one and it has been a good pet project to decorate the space while we have so much downtime.  Oh, and my new roommate is pretty great too - it ...

New London Flat - Couches

“You are not stuck at home, you are safe at home. One word can change your entire attitude” 💞 I moved into my new flat a few weeks ago and given the fact we are spending so much time at home I have spent much of that furnishing and decorating my new flat - time well spent!  Nearly everything is done but I figured a room by room tour would be a good way to go about this! While putting this ...

New London Apartment - Second Bedroom

Over the weekend I moved into my new apartment here in London and I am in love.  As you may recall I wrote about wanting to live in a period house which I was able to get along with a fully renovated apartment - the best of both worlds.  And because the people who write descriptions for real estate website's must have degrees in English literature mixed with creative writing I will share ...

Guest Room with Watercolor Harbor Study I and Watercolor Harbor Study II from Photowall over Bed

Welcome to the start of a new week and a post that my husband came up with the title for.  It is accurate and straight to the point, yes, but I would argue a bit more interesting.  I had the chance to work with Photowall for the third time and we have really spruced up the art in our apartment.  In case you are not familiar makes top-quality wall décor ranging from full wallpaper murals and ...
