Bring in fresh flowers

Fresh flowers in the house are lovely at this time of year. The Christmas decorations have come down and everything looks so bare.

When I was a little girl , I remember my Gran planting bulbs of hyacinths ready for spring days. I used to help her put them into a dark cupboard to wait over the winter months until it was time to bring them out and put them around the house.

Their smell is amazing , and will always remind me of Gran .

Add in some new , fun art prints

Hanging some new pictures on the wall is a great way to refresh a room.

Our lovely Hettie art prints are printed on gliclée print , archival ink on Hahnemuhle fine art photo rag. They are A3 size - 420mm x 297mm.

They are unframed so that you can choose your own frames to suit your scheme. Please allow up to a week before dispatch .

Choose from seven fabulous designs by Karen Powell , depicting the Hettie lifestyle

New fresh colours for 2021

This year , Pantone has chosen two colours for the year .

"A message of happiness supported by fortitude, the combination of PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray + PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating is aspirational and gives us hope. We need to feel that everything is going to get brighter – this is essential to the human spirit.

As people look for ways to fortify themselves with energy, clarity, and hope to overcome the continuing uncertainty, spirited and emboldening shades satisfy our quest for vitality. PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating is a bright and cheerful yellow sparkling with vivacity, a warming yellow shade imbued with solar power. PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray is emblematic of solid and dependable elements which are everlasting and provide a firm foundation."

Mix and match these two lovely colours with accessories from the Hettie Home Collection and freshen up your home and working environment .

 

 

 

 

Family photos

I love having photos around the house . And now especially it is a way of seeing the people that I am missing every day.

Every year we take a four generations photo of the family - my Dad , me , my two sons , and their children. It is a lovely tradition and we all enjoy looking back through the photos that we have taken over the years.

Photos are a great way of capturing memories , and there are so many lovely photo frames available to display them in . I have some special old photos taken of my parents and grandparents , and we managed to find a way of making prints of them to display.

 

 

 

Our house is a lovely big old house , and the fire in the lounge is beautiful
 
It has a copper hood , and draws the fire really well up the chimney.
The dogs love it when we light the fire , and take a ringside seat closest to it.
 
And our Hettie throws finish off the setting perfectly for cosy winter days
