Artfully layered, the exquisite details and rich fabrics evoke the grandeur of a Milanese Palazzo. One of my favourites must be The Nortonbury Throw Pillow with a hand embroidered stag crest rests on the silk foulard print of the Anston Throw Pillow and woven herringbone of the Bretford Sham.

NEED INSPIRATION TO GIVE YOUR HOME INTERIOR A LUXURY MAKE OVER THIS NEW YEAR?

Have You Ever Considered Luxury vinyl flooring for your Home

Vinyl Flooring Perfect for the Party

If you like to entertain crowds at home or are the person to throw parties but fear the clean-up, there is an option that will greatly benefit you in choosing luxury vinyl flooring for your property.

Over the past two decades, interior designers and specialists recommend vinyl tiles and planks as a preferred option. The vinyl option has many benefits for those with limited time for cleaning and maintaining the home. This is much the same as with MDF skirting boards. They are so easy to clean and maintain – plus, they are built to last and are very cost effective too. 

Quick Install

In browsing the many brands within the vinyl flooring marketplace, you may be surprised to learn what makes it a high appeal to homeowners looking for a change.

Why it is a preferred option for the home is because of the relative ease to install yourself without the cost of a professional fitter. Whether it is an option of glue down or click together, vinyl tiles are a fun project to get into on your own time and, due to the ability to have pieces cut to size to fit – you are seldom left with frustration.

Vinyl is comfortable underfoot and has plenty of styles to choose from to match your influence.

Stain and Scratch Fighter

If you are keen to throw parties for every occasion under the sun, then luxury vinyl flooring is a lifelong option due to its durability and resilience to hard stepping, heels and the odd spilt drink or food.

Come the morning after, you may have a clean-up on your hands, but your flooring will not take long due to its liquid resistance and anti-stain design. You won’t be dealing with nightmares of scratches across your floor due to vinyl’s anti-scratch implementation.

A simple clean with a warm soapy sponge or mop and your floor retains its glossy finish again and again. It is a perfect product for homes with heavy foot traffic.

 

Kitchen Connoisseur

If you like cooking for a crowd, then vinyl tiles in your kitchen are the perfect assistant – no matter how messy things get.

Easy to clean no matter if making spaghetti, curry, pizza or salad, vinyl has your floor safe and stainless from any dropped jars or sauces that typically mark flooring no matter how many times you wash it.

One spill, one wipe and it’s back to its usual look taking no time out of your meal preparations and time to mingle with your guests.

Finding your Style

With vinyl floor tiles and planks you are not limited in selection. Some brands offer popular as well as more diverse styles to choose from and can showcase how they would fit the current feel of the room- as well as match your room fittings or furniture.

No matter what you set out your home to achieve, luxury vinyl flooring provides extra life to your party and gives peace of mind for the morning after.

A SUSTAINABLE SUMMER STAYCATION AT HOME WITH TROPILEX

Give yourself a little Holiday because Mind and Body deserve a little vacation sometimes…

By Posted on 0 Comments Location: 3min read823 views

This summer I told myself if I don’t go anywhere for vacation due to travel restrictions amidst the pandemic the idea of relaxing at home isn’t something I had considered until now. With that said, a summer staycation at home has been the most sensible option this year but don’t let that spoil your fun because there are ways to make the most of your open space including the back garden too.

When it came to choosing the ultimate summer accessory to transform the vibe of my back garden I was momentarily inspired by the idea of hammocking to transport me to the beach and just watch a lazy afternoon go by. I can’t think of anything more pleasant than lying in a hammock to re-create those summer memories and great feeling of being on holiday. Somewhere exotic or shores closer to home to watch the sunset go down. Which is your favourite British Beach?

At least this summer I can save on the air miles and adopt a more sustainable approach to travelling less which seems like somewhat a great idea than previously intended. So, I thought instead of missing out on a vacation why not bring the beach culture to me and set up with a hammock in my back garden sounds like the ideal summer situation.

After all, summer is all about re-living memories and making some new ones. I’m always up for being spontaneous and trying something new especially if its good fun like hammocking the act of setting up and subsequently chilling in a hammock with a view.

Tired of winter already? Get some summer vibes today with a nice siesta in a Tropilex hammock. Vice versa, why always hammock outdoors when you can hammock indoors as well. You can get comfy in a hammock during the cold wintery days too. The best feeling is that satisfaction when you put your feet up after a long day…

Did you know Tropilex is a proud member of  1% for the planet. As a member of 1% For The Planet, Tropilex donates a minimum 1% of yearly sales to support environmental non-profit organisations which is a great cause to make a difference for a greener planet. Their hammocks and hanging chairs are woven and repelled by traditional hammock weavers in Columbia and India which is unique by local artisans.

A suggestion for today during a sunny day would be go offline: less scrolling, indulge in more relaxing and enjoy is the most productive thing you can do this summer. Just – Be Free. Be Happy! Good Vibes Only.

Wanna hang-out in a hammock with all your friends? Tropilex has supper big family sized hammocks! Which one is your favourite? I recommend the Travel Hammock Majolia range made from super light but strong fabric your perfect travel companion at the beach and beyond. The hammocks are made to handle even a rain shower where the polyester yarns ensure that the cotton does not get too stretched too much. Ideal for British weather too given the unpredictable change in forecast rain or shine.

The beautiful wooden standard wood in other ranges would look great in every garden home made with 1005 FSC certified pinewood. They even deliver their products CO2-neutral.

Live in the sunshine, swim in the sea, drink the wild air with Tropilex and make it a summer to remember.

Cheers to the weekend!

THE DUNELM HOME CHRISTMAS COLLECTION 2019 | REVIEW

HOME DECOR INSPIRATION TO CELEBRATE THIS FESTIVE HOLIDAY SEASON

Dunelm

After all it is the season of giving and about spending time with your loved ones, family and friends which means it’s time to start thinking about finding the perfect gifts come Christmas Day. Sometimes I often find  I am leaving my Christmas shopping til the last minute but this year I’m going to start early and be well organised.

Just recently I was invited to attend the Press Day for Dunelm Home Christmas Collection in London to have a preview of their new collection range from home interiors to unique Christmas gift ideas. I also got to try and sample some delicious Christmas Inspired Cocktails and sumptuous Canapé’s during the event too while I had the pleasure of browsing my favourite items to add to my Christmas Wish list.

DID YOU KNOW? 37% of people do their Christmas Shopping in November, while 12% wait until the week before Christmas!

Dunelm Home prides itself as being one of Britain’s most beloved well known brands and it’s the first time I’ve come across this retailer that produces some really fantastic products to furnish your home.

Dunelm

I’m feeling really inspired for Chrismas just by looking at all the wonderful things which surround me because I really love this festive time of year and the thought of dressing up the mantle piece, hanging stockings up and having a Tree and decorations to light up the room. The feeling of being elated inside with joy is how it should be during this special time of year so decorating your home in preparation for the big day can be fun too. I reminisce those days growing up as a child and putting up the tree just me, Mum, siblings and not forgetting the dogs being present would not feel complete.

Dunelm

All the items on display during the press day were fantastic and make ideal presents such as handmade arts and crafts including the Christmas Crackers looked quirky and fun too.

Even the advent calendars were imaginative in the form of a 3-D model village to food gift sets, board games and more i deas for present choice was a great opportunity to window shop before these items hit the shelves in the store.

With comparison to other Christmas home collections Dunelm did not disappoint as there were lots to choose from to help you decide on gift ideas to spoil your loved ones and make sure you celebrate in style at home this festive season.

I had the most wonderful time exploring and taking note of all the things I want to include in my Christmas Wish list so I can start my Christmas Shopping early before the big rush kicks in on the high street. It’s the beginning of October already, so the time is ticking in the countdown to Christmas before we all head off and enjoy our planned festivities for the holidays.
