Fresh Start. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><b>How was your Christmas? </b>I hope it was all you wished for. Ours was really lovely. Time for family and recharging the batteries. I've read & watched more television in the past few days than I have done all year!!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">And now thoughts move to New Year's Eve {which is most likely going to be Mac & Cheese and Eton Mess with my little family!} and the new year ahead. I'm an avid 'list maker' and always have plenty of journals on the go too. I love the Internet and Technology but this gal will never let go of the written word. Obviously those around me know this as I received 2 diaries! Both super pretty and I will use both!</span><br />

</div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Ah...a wee blog that's been a LONG time coming, this one! I have a little love affair with France. OK.OK. I'll rephrase that. I think I'm French. You know, in a 'previous-life' kinda way?! I'm joking of course, but I guess there's a little grain of truth in it somewhere as my Great-Great Grandmother was French. Her surname was Doré. And that's it. That's ALL I know. I have no idea what part of France she came from, how she came to be part of the family. Rien. Nothing. So, one of these days I'll be doing a little research of my own. But in the meantime, my love affair with the country continues since I sat in my first French class, aged 8 and fell in love with the language to when I visited Paris for the first time {with my then boyfriend....hubbie reads the blogs. 'Nuff said!} to when I moved to Paris at 21....and a lot in between. It's now a distant country that I dream of often, read as much French as I can but rarely get to speak it now and I can feel my French getting rusty. Need a trip back? Bonjour! Now you're speaking my language. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">There are lots of little things that have become 'part of me' because of my 'French Connection' and one little cute thing is that the ONLY jam {yup, jam} that we ever have in the house is <b>Bonne Maman</b> - I changed the jam once and my kids wouldn't touch it!! Ah, my little 'francophones'! When we have finished this yummy goodness, I keep the jar of course! The possibilities are ENDLESS. I love a bottle of beer every once and a while and even drink my beer out of 'em! Here are simply 2 examples. One from one of my 'go to' blogs <a href="http://www.britdecor.co.uk/" target="_blank">www.britdecor.co.uk</a> - Mike Ahern is a genius. His photography and styling are inspirational. Mike painted the inside of the jars and popped in some beautiful flowers from his garden. The effect is simple, pure and beautiful, don't you agree? And one from me! Mine is a little idea for a Christmas Centre piece. </span><br />

</tbody></table>
I know, right? As my husband would say "Are your Diamond shoes too tight?"!! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">It's like this. One of my little one's had been sick that week and the world, as you know it, stops turning when they're sick. I was exhausted. It was the weekend of the Ideal Home Show here in Dublin and I <i>really </i>didn't want to miss it. I had planned to go to it on the Saturday, meet up with a lovely lady I met a few months ago {Sorry Again, Marian!} but it just wasn't gonna happen. By the Saturday evening, however, things were looking brighter and I was able to venture in on the Sunday. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I normally grab a take - away coffee and whatever form of breakfast I can find en route but THIS morning, that just didn't cut it. I needed a 'treat coffee' {am I the only person who calls it that?}. I always get there early, It was cold and I had never been inside the Four Seasons. The minute I walked in, I knew I was going to have a hard time leaving. I recieved a lovely, friendly welcome and found a beautiful foyer reception area, in relaxing neutral tones with High Backed Chairs near the windows. Sunday papers were on offer and I picked one up, ordered a coffee and <span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #f4cccc;">sank</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"> into the chair. Halfway through the coffee, I was emmersed in the Sunday Business Post and, well, Ideal Home Show? Sorry...What now? </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">I DID get up. I DID go. It took all my might to move from that cosy position, seen above, but do ya know what? The minute I walked in to the Colortrend Room Set Section, the tired Hilda that had walked in to that beautiful hotel was gone. I was very lucky 'cos I started to chat with THE lovliest Interior Designer and as if by Interior Magic, the spark was lit. The flame was burning. And and hour and a half later, I reluctantly left the Colortrend Section - only because there was a talk I wanted to attend & I was starting to run out of time. And because, my lovely husband was at home minding the little one that was recovering from sickness.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"> <b>Hilda by Design is a team effort</b>. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">A blog will be most definitely written on the show. I promise. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">In the meantime, I'd like to share <b>3 </b>little pieces of news:</span></span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I update my Facebook page Monday-Friday {with the odd sneaky weekend post} and it hit 300 'likes' this weekend! Eek! Something I could never imagined would happen when I started it on the 28th of February. So, Simply, Thank You. I think you know by now how much your support means to me.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I bought my Domain name! Something you are supposed to do at the start of blogging, when you are happy with your chosen blog name but, to be honest, I had to <b>grow</b> into 'Hilda by Design' a little. That's just me. And now it's part of me. I dont know where IT ends, and I begin. So, I am now officially www.hildabydesign.com ! I'm a dot com!</span></li>
</ul>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">And then...well, I'm a Christmas baby - due on Christmas Day {"Happy Christmas! Enjoy your turkey dinner in Hospital"!} and I arrived on the 22nd of December: a nightmare for my family who feel like they either </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><b>A. </b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Have to get me one LARGE present or </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><b>B. </b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">get me 2 presents when they are already rushing about trying to organise Christmas. I can, hand on my heart, honestly say that it doesnt bother me in the slightest. As I get older, presents have changed in meaning...but...well, that wonderful hubbie I mentioned gave me an early birthday present this weekend and I'm still pinching myself to be honest! I'll be attending Sophie Robinson & Daniel Hopwood's Masterclass in London on the 31st of January!!!! I spent yesterday on cloud 9 and I think I may have made my way down to Cloud 8 at the time of writing but, my feet definitely havent touched the ground yet. Details are here, on their website </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><a href="http://www.sophieanddaniel.com/" target="_blank">www.sophieanddaniel.com</a></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> if you are interested. </span><br />
<ul>
</ul>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">So, here endeth the strangest blog that I have written and will probably ever write but it <b>needed </b>to be written for me to move on. I hope that makes sense? Have a wonderful Monday, whatever you do xx</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">BBC2 started the new series of 'The Great Interior Design Challenge' last night at 7pm and I was very eagerly awaiting it. This programme burst on my screen last year and convinced me that a career in Design, in some shape or form {I'm still figuring that out!} was, well, forgive me...my destiny. I poured over each word, pausing the television, rewinding, taking notes. And last night was no different. Except, this is Nine Months on + I have spent this time self-teaching, started blogging and designing our own house.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">So, Kids asleep,feet up with a cuppa and my cosy jeans on, I started to watch...</span><br />

The properties last night were <b>17th Century Cotswolds Cottages </b>in the Village of <b>Bibury. </b>The Series Presenter, Architectural Historian, <b>Tom Dyckhoff</b>,<b> </b>mentioned that a Design Hero of mine, William Morris was once quoted saying that this was <b>"The most beautiful village in England"</b> {1860's} and I'd struggle to argue with the man. 3 designers, <b>Francesca</b>, <b>Scott </b>and <b>Fiona</b> got the brief for members of the same family, who lived in neighbouring cottages. Here is an example {a screen-grab} of each of their <b>Mood Boards</b>:<br />

Francesca's mum is an Artist and her fluidity of Design reflected this Artistic background; Scott has an extremely Technical job and his Design was very precise and modern and Fiona has a Stunning house and designed this herself, with an Eclectic Style. During the programme we recieve extra information about the Architecture, background information about the houses themselves + Design Tips {...last night's episode nearly had me cracking open the Chalk Paint mid viewing!}. Each Designer is also given some kind of object to personalise & incorporate into their room: Last night's was a Floor Lamp. So, Who Won? What did the rooms look like? Well, here's a little Before & After but I'll let YOU decide who you thought should win {er, if you didnt watch it yet?!!}. First up is Francesca:<br />

The next episode airs tonight and, I'm a little tired now but already I cant wait. The next group of Designers have the Challenge of showing their skills with stunning Beach Huts in Dorset.<br />
If you are a Facebook Fan, keep up to date with the programme on the series' fan page at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/thegreatinteriordesignchallenge" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/thegreatinteriordesignchallenge</a> or if, like me {@mcevoyhilda}, you are a Twitter fan, #GIDC is the most fun way to follow + interact with the programme + it's Design Obsessed Fans!<br />
I'll leave you with a lovely moment, when, Gillian, Francesca's Client, came in to her room. She said: "<b>I've waited a long time for it </b>{her own space}...<b>MY DREAMS HAVE COME TRUE"</b><br />
Well, if I can hear that from even ONE future Client on my Design Journey, I'll know I've chosen the right career xx The very best of luck to Francesca, Scott + Fiona on theirs!<br />

It's an awful day here in Dublin, Ireland but I have been cheering myself up by taking out some of my small purchases from the trip a few weekends ago. A highlight for me was a visit to the flagship store of Royal Copenhagen <a href="http://www.royalcopenhagen.com/" target="_blank">www.royalcopenhagen.com</a> on the main shopping street, Amagertorv. If you ever get a chance to visit this building, don't pass it up as the minute I walked in, I knew i was in <b>Scandi Heaven</b>!<br />
The main display that greeted me when I walked in had a beautiful example of "<b>a new take on an Old Danish Papercutting Tradition" </b>by Designer and Artist <b>Marianne Eriksen Scott-Hansen</b>. I'm so sad that I had no Camera with me due to battery dying {rookie-never-gonna-happen-again-mistake} but I am sharing with you my example of her work which is currently hanging in my hall. It could easily go on the Christmas tree but I think, with the Irish Tradition of Halloween/Oiche Samhain coming up, it's a <b>Spooky </b>addition to our hall, don't you think?<br />

Pardon the opening 'Valley Girl' sentence but I've wanted to go to <b>Copenhagen </b>for, like, FOREVER! It's true. It actually became a bit of a running family joke, as one of the first things my mum said to my then new - boyfriend {now = Hubbie} was 'She really wants to go to Copenhagen. You should take her'. Well, Mum, 10 years later; he did.<br />
We were 7 years married last Sunday & my wonderful Hubbie had booked our first 2 nights away from the kids, ever, in Wonderful Copenhagen. I had a zillion things I wanted to do. Top of the list was the Designmuseum <u>Danmark</u>. But, well, a very different weekend evolved. It <b>evolved</b>. That was the beauty of it. I very quickly realised that I didn't need to go to the Designmuseum as Copenhagen <b>IS </b>a design museum. A living one. Guys, we didn't even visit The Little Mermaid. Shame on us! But we both left, wanting to come back as we felt we only scratched the surface. <br />
What struck me was the <b>Colours of Copenhagen</b>, so I've put together a little <b>Smorgasbord</b>!. <i></i><br />
<br />
I also decided to publish my photo's <b>as is</b>. I'm feeling a little realism doesn't go amiss sometimes, so I haven't tinted or <u>cropped</u>, but left the colours natural for you to see...<br />

And this was just the FIRST room! I was chatting so much to the girls, I didn't take any pics of their <b>Faux Flower Shop</b> in the next! I may have uttered "Give me a sleeping bag & I'd happily spend the night here", upon exiting. Or not. Depends on how embarassing you think that was.</div>

I had a little extra interest in the Interiors here as i follow an Interiors Blog <a href="http://www.hydrangeagirl.com/" target="_blank">www.hydrangeagirl.com</a> and Alex recently completed the design for the Pantry. I've been following her for a while now, and although we've never met, She has been encouraging + lovely. I could see some of her signature style in the space...<br />

And what did i choose in DUST? Another amazing Irish Design Duo, Ail+El, came under my radar a while ago. I found out about DUST and the competition through their Facebook page, so it was only apt that i would come away with one of their, becoming iconic, Concrete Planters -<br />

I attended a talk with Gardener Extraordinaire, <b>Diarmuid Gavin</b>'s at the Ideal Home Show in the RDS, Dublin in April. The show will be coming back in October and I guess it got me thinking about the blog that never was.<br>
<br>
I was the eager beaver. I arrived at the seated area waaaaay too early, Coffee in hand of course, wanting to get a spot before they were all taken. I was ready to hear about Gardening. I know <i>NOTHING </i>of the subject, so I really didn't know what to expect. What I didn't expect was to hear one of the most <b>Inspirational </b>talks that I have heard relating to MY passion: Design. And this is just a little summary:<br>
<br>
Diarmuid Gavin {DG} <i>jumped </i>on to the stage and the energy was palpable. He started to talk about his own influences and here's where it gets really cute. He shared a photo of a garden in Rathfarnham he knew + loved when he was a kid, which <b>made a statement</b>...<br>

Can you just about make out the gnomes?? There's a statue of Budda in there too. I don't know why but it's not exactly what I was expecting! But, <b>it stands out</b>. He spoke of other influences such as Landscape Architect, <b>Capability Brown</b>, and the possibly more kooky examples of <b>Star Trek + Willy Wonka </b>to name a few. "Shadow, Light and Natural Landscapes" {DG} were highlighted also. He introduced me to a 'garden' that I hope to visit one day. It's a Repurposed Train-Track in New York City, called the 'High Line'...<br>

2 designs also stood out for me: A Coastal Retreat in Ireland and a Penthouse Terrace in Altringham, Cheshire (...designed for a famous footballer, but he couldn't reveal who!!) and can be viewed at <a href="http://www.diarmuidgavindesigns.co.uk/" target="_blank">www.diarmuidgavindesigns.co.uk</a> .

He spoke of so much more: showing + describing his plans for his OWN garden at home in Ireland & talked about the designing of the challenging space for the garden at Temple Street Children's Hospital, Dublin. He finished the talk with some advice: to create something that suits <b>you</b>, to have fun with gardens and <b>"...if possible, make people smile" </b>{DG}. And what does the early bird also catch? Well, Diarmuid was only setting up when I arrived and very kindly posed for a pic, so, this budding Interior Designer went home with a smile xx<br>

<b>Good Morning!</b> I normally start off my week on my Facebook page with a little 'Hi' after the weekend & this mornings was getting pretty chatty, so I decided to pop it into a blog! Hope your weekend was fab? Ours was a flurry of Birthday parties {Yay!} and a Goodbye party {Sniff!}...So, it's a tired Hilda greeting you today!<br />
<br />
It's Our Bedroom that I'm concentrating on this week. It needs an 'Autumn Clean' as I just realised that, out of all of the areas in the house, my vision for this room is the foggiest...I have <b>some </b>ideas of course, but I have chopped and changed on just how much colour I want to introduce. I had thought of a beautiful blast of Chinoiserie wallpaper behind our bed, but then, as I lay in bed one morning, a little "over tired" {Irish Code for Severely Hungover} from the night before, I felt maybe it may be a little <b>too much</b>. I enjoyed the Calm & Serenity that our nearly All White Bedroom was giving me...So! I'm going to Chronicle my little Bedroom Journey. There may be chops & changes but hey, that's the process and I may ask your advice a little along the way too. For the moment, I'm thinking mostly <b>Neutral </b>with some bursts of <b>Colour</b> but it's exactly HOW much colour that will remain to be seen. Here's my first glimpse of 'Pinspiration' - I love the Lamp, the Textures, the Glam feel it's evoking...You? And I've also popped up the original image that made me a Chinoiserie convert. So, See you back here soon for more bedroom fun! Oo'er Missus!!</div>

They were blessed and privileged to be invited. The wedding was in a Country Church in Crook, Passage East, Waterford. The reception was in Waterford Castle {<a href="http://www.waterfordcastleresort.com/" target="_blank">www.waterfordcastleresort.com</a>} and they stayed in the Golf Lodges there. The Bride is French - Canadian and the beautiful motif on their Invitations, Wedding booklet & Cake reflected this. The happiness + love filled the Castle. On the way home, she stopped at a café and took a photo of some words on the wall which seemed apt & rang true. This is her story. They are only beginning theirs♥<br />

Those Sunny, Beach days seem a distant memory now but maybe some of you lucky people are taking that last sneaky trip away before school starts? Well, for those of us here in rainy Ireland, I thought I might give you one last Splash of Sunshine!! 'Roo's Beach' store <a href="http://www.roosbeach.co.uk/" target="_blank">www.roosbeach.co.uk</a> is a little taste of <b>Miami in Cornwall</b>. The lovely Australian lady who was there that day had been an Interior Designer in London for many years. When I asked her could I take a few snaps, she was happy for me to do so & as I 'oohed + ahhed' around the store, this is what I found. {Oh! And I also bought a gorgeous pair of flip flops, which I wore all summer and, resigned that, yup, it's Autumn, put them away yesterday}. So, sit back and let me take you on a last little journey to the sun and if you have a second to comment, would love to know your thoughts xx<br />

<li>Have noticed for a while that I've tended to want to share what might be happening at the weekend/something interesting that's caught my eye/something I'm up to myself. And this tends to occur on a FRIDAY! Hence: <b>'Share it Friday'</b>! It feels pretty random at the moment, as, as you know, I'm learning my craft and might I add, enjoying every second. So, here's my little roundup for today xx It comes at a funny time as I'm going to take a little 'Blog Break', what with a lovely Family wedding on the horizon and both my little one's starting school {eek!}, I need to be "Just Mum", but, I'll be back, after the settling in period...for all of us!!

They have lots on offer: Clothes {a green dress to die for that just. wouldn't. fit. <b>Grrrrrrr!!</b>}, Books, Children's Stuff...etc. and a little way down the back, is their homewares section. I had popped in to collect a <b>bookshelf/storage combo </b>for my little girl's room and, um, it was only polite to stay a while. I chatted with the lovely lady who was there on Sunday Morning & asked would it be ok to take a few snaps. And this is what the magpie in me was attracted to that day! I know, that there are so many demands on our hard earned cash these days but, these items were <b>so </b>reasonably priced and it's <b>such </b>a worthy charity. Just Sayin'. The Treasure Chest is located at the Childvision Campus, Gracepark Road, Drumcondra, Dublin 9. <a href="https://www.blogger.com/"></a><br />

It's a little feeling that he's growing up and his 'baby' toys should possibly move on to the Charity shop where they may get a new lease of life. There are some toys, however, that I'm not ready to say goodbye to yet! I'm looking for cute ways to store them and came across these two examples which I think are pretty cool-do you? • Have a little 'thing' for <b>Glass Display Domes </b>for a while now!<br />

Why? Because the first time we visited the Beautiful Fishing Village of Padstow, Cornwall, our little guy was only 1 year old. At this stage, children may sleep at some stage and you can pop 'em in a stroller and meander your way around the town. This time, we visited with a five year old and a three year old. Yup. Meander? Run, more like!! Ah, our little darlings had ideas of their own and these mostly involved eating Cornish Ice Cream <b>{Double Yum!} </b>and not, most surprisingly, visiting the numerous beautiful Interiors/Gourmet Stores dotted around the town! So, I peered from afar mostly but the first stop had to be the deli section of Rick Stein's Padstow Empire. It was here we got some take away Cornish Pasties on our last visit and I was eager to repeat. The building itself is impressive as it's a huge Industrial looking Barn. Old Fishing factories, I would say. The first part houses a store, fish & chip shop and gourmet section. As you walk in to the town, you pass Stein's Restaurant and further in still, you come across his Café and Gift Shop. If you have been, please let me know if I am omitting something!! I loved the Coastal Interiors i saw while in Cornwall and Stein's didn't dissapoint. As we walked through the town, just near the Café, we came across these Almshouses. My kids were entranced. Padstow is a spot that I think I can visit again & again and still, experience something new. Some fine dining in Stein's Restaurant would be really lovely in the future but for now, we were happy with pasties on a bench, in the sunshine xx<br />

I'd recently moved there and we didn't yet have a store in Dublin. My first purchase was a black, wooden side table and I <u>loved</u> it! IKEA was there for the next big chapter in my life: moving in with my {then} boyfriend i.e. Hubbie and now, IKEA belongs to an exciting new phase: the designing of our first house together as a family. I braved the masses at the recent Bank Holiday Weekend here in Dublin and popped in to the Ballymun Branch...for <b>Bookshelves </b>{ahem! I MAY have made one or two extra purchases!!} and couldn't resist a little look around the store while I was there!! I was literally 2 seconds in the store when I spotted these super cute <b>Coloured Glass Vases </b>and as I am collecting coloured glass at the moment for my mantle, I couldn't leave them there, eh? They have actually ended up on the Bookshelves...but, I think that's another day's Blog Post! | These beautiful <b>Screens</b> have a little <b>'Information Tag' </b>from the Interior Design Team which helpfully describes how they were made | A <b>High Back Armchair </b>with a pretty Autumnal Cushion | A Colourful <b>Chaise Longue </b>and <b>Two-Seater Sofa </b>in <b>Husie Orange </b>and a <b>Customised Table </b>| The same High Backed armchair, this time in<b> Mosta Green </b>| I love the <b>Lövebacken Side Table </b>and it's Retro-Look but when I saw it displayed, I appreciated it's 'Leaf-Like' appearance and speaking of greenery, I love these pails and <b>Cutlery Stands</b> which I would really love in our Kitchen! I'll leave you for the moment with some super-on-trend <b>Insect Cushions </b>{wish I could have seen the Moth Cushion out of it's packaging: I'm sure it's lovely} and some cute, colourful cushions that could look really lovely in a Girl's Bedroom, eh? What's <b>YOUR</b> IKEA experience??<br />

Much debating has been going on {in my head, mostly!} and placing of frames on walls. Questions asked, like, "How <b>high </b>should I place the frame? How much <b>Art </b>can one room take? And quite simply, Does it <b>suit </b>the room?". So, the fun has begun and I must say, I'm quite excited. I love Photography equally as much as a Painting, so it's apt that one of the first frames to go up on our wall was a photo that I purchased for my <b>U2 - loving </b>husband about 5 years ago. One cold, winter's evening in Dublin, I met photographer, <b>Colm Henry <a href="http://www.colmhenry.ie/" target="_blank">www.colmhenry.ie</a></b> in the Davenport Hotel to pick up my purchase. Colm lives outside of Dublin and so we met in this city centre location. I was familiar with his work. There really isn't one famous Irish musician/band that Colm didn't photograph during the 1980's/90's. His portfolio is much broader than this but this is what he is well-known for. We had said that we would meet in the foyer and he handed over the lovely, large, black frame with my choice of print. To say I was pleased is an understatement. I paid for it and was saying goodbye when he said, " Do you want to have a cup of tea?". Well, if you ever hear of an <b>Irish girl </b>refusing a cup of tea, let me know?! A lovely chat ensued and he was able to give me a little background on the photo: As it's quite unusual and quirky, it was cool to hear that the band were on location in Italy when they came across a Wedding. But, this wedding had already taken place and everything was left behind. There were still half drunk wine bottles on the table! The table was beautifully placed in front of a stunning view and the boys were in a playful mood. As they joked about, Larry ended up with Bono's signature hat on his head and the shot was taken. Wonderful, I think you'll agree? Art is so subjective. To know what YOU like is the most important thing. Nothing else matter's. So, have fun with your Art. If it means something personally to you {such as my own late dad's paintings/photography}, I think it's all the better. But, you can make new memories too.<br />

So, believe me, it's not everyday I come across a wonderful company bearing it!! But that's exactly what happened about 6 months ago when I discovered <a href="http://www.hildaliving.com/" target="_blank">www.hildaliving.com</a> and their beautiful <b>embroidered home accessories</b>. Rebecca Williams is based in Cornwall {<i> I know! I'm becoming a little obsessed! </i>} and runs her online business from there. She named the company after her Grandmother, Hilda Williams, who was an exquisite embrioderer. Anyone who follows my Facebook page will know that I have been drooling over linen/material napkins and I really love the Hilda Living range. But they have much more: Delicate <b>Buttons</b>, Cute <b>Tea Cosies</b>, Stunning <b>Lampshades </b>and Gorgeous <b>Cushions</b> all make up a wonderful collection of which I have shown simply a taster of here. And the last image just <b>had </b>to go to Rebecca's Granny, who influenced her hugely when she visited a retrospective of her work in Hampton Court Palace when she was little. I think you'll agree that the detail has a timeless beauty. I'd like to thank Rebecca for being so supportive in my writing this blog & wish her continued success in the future xx<br />

I love a bit of luxury as much as the next person but funds don't always allow, eh? If you want to stay 'on trend' or simply update your home on a budget, the high street can be great! On a recent trip to <b>Tesco</b>, I spotted quite a bit of Coastal themed lovin' going on with some really great <b>Hurricane Lanterns</b> for example, mixed in with some pretty storage baskets | Really affordable lighting in the shape of a <b>Retro Desk Lamp </b>and trendy wooden-legged lamp | Some <b>Monochrome Vases </b>that reminded me of the style of Designer <b>Kelly Hoppen | </b>An adorable collection of <b>Clocks</b>: personal favourites are the coloured ( yellow + grey ) clocks from 'Jones Clocks' and the 'Rowington' clock which is suitable for outdoor use too! And, as I'm a sucker for Office Storage at the moment, these lovely examples from <b>Tesco</b>'s own range, <b>Sanderson </b>and the wonderful <b>Kirsty Allsopp</b> caught my eye! Do you mix high street with high end? Or is it one or the other for you?! I'd love to hear your feedback xx<br />

That, or I didn't have my Design Hat on at all, and didn't notice Blue Eames Eiffel Chairs in the Bar. I'm still not ruling this out! Well, this time I took a few shots of the mainly Coastal themed interiors of the Hotel and enjoyed the calming atmosphere that this created. Our room had fresh yellows, greys and greens. Some pretty photo wall art of Cornish seas and surf set the scene! The adults only lounge had vibrant yellows and muted aubergine walls with pretty cool pendant lights that could be seen in other parts of the hotel (See Bar Pic) - made of material and gave a really lovely light effect. I thought that the framed Retro Seaside photo prints scattered around the lounge were very cute. I just <u>had </u>to include a photo of the view of the walk just across the road from the hotel too...So, if you're <b>NOT </b>a fan of Coastal Themed Interiors, <i>Look Away Now!</i><br />

Wicklow, IrelandAn old friend of mine and his family are back in Ireland on holiday & when we were looking for somewhere to meet with the kids, he suggested Mount Usher Gardens, Co. Wicklow. As I had never been, I was pretty excited to <b>A. </b>Meet up with everyone and <b>B. </b>See the gardens I had heard a lot about. They didn't dissapoint! But what I didn't expect was all the beautiful stores that were in the Courtyard before we entered the Gardens. As it was a family visit, I didn't really get to peak much inside but, um, this is just an excuse to return, eh? We entered from the side, so the first little gem I came across was the <b><i>Vintage Green House</i> </b>with Vintage Tea Cups mixed in with perennials | Huge Tin (I think!) pots in the Courtyard held beautiful <i style="font-weight: bold;">Succulents </i>which I adore and am seeing in many a Design publication at the moment. They look like my kinda plant as I think that i may just be able to keep them alive?! | <b>Strawbridge</b>, was just so inviting & I am certain has many treasures inside, as even outside the store, these garden sculptures were gently moving in the breeze | I'm a sucker for a pretty <b>Loo </b>(!) and as I walked in, I was greeted with a cute sign and planter/a gorgeous Chandelier/a cute seating area/a cool mirror & a lovely knob on the back of the door | After our trip to the gardens, we had to stop by at the <b>Retro Ice - Cream Parlour </b>with it's Candy Stripe Walls, Colourful Shelving and Retro Pendant Lights and a very clever use of wall art that I saw once previously, where you highlight one colour on a black & white print - very effective! Can you name all the famous faces?! I <i style="font-weight: bold;">HAVE </i>to leave you with some photo's of the Gardens, huh? All images © Hilda by Design. Hope you enjoyed my little taster of this amazing spot, "created by four generations of the Walpole Family over a period of 112 years" {Source: <a href="http://www.mountushergardens.ie/" target="_blank">www.mountushergardens.ie</a> } and now owned by Irish Company, Avoca. Have you visited? I will definitely be back xx<br>

I came across this fantastic company https://m.facebook.com/ShadyandtheLamp back in October of last year at the Ideal Home Show in Dublin. Their stand caught my eye! I got chatting with the owner (whose card I have since mislaid...) and admitted my dismay that I had just thrown out a beautiful lamp stand that upon reflection (and meeting her), I could have passed on to her to work her magic & make it beautiful again. Rookie Mistake! Won't be making <b>that</b><b> </b>one again in a hurry! I have been following them since & they are just going from strength to strength. Didn't you hear? Vintage is back! I'll leave you with their latest creation which I think is just <i>lush</i><i>!</i> Don't you? </div>

So, the wallpaper accent wall in my dining space is just aching for the gorgeous wallpaper that I picked out many months ago. <b>Problem</b>: it's expensive. <b>Me</b>: On a budget. <b>Solution</b>: Wait 'till I can afford it, as nothing I have seen can better it for me & have fun with the space until I can purchase it! This is where <i>Japanese Washi Tape </i>is gonna help me out! I'm gonna place some of my favourite inspirational words/quotes and pop them up on the wall with the tape. After all this area is going to house my office nook, so, I'll be needing all the inspiration I can get when I am studying Interior Design! So, I'll leave you with this example from leboxboutique on etsy of some beautiful tape | an example of what kind of thing I will be doing, from Smitten Studios via www.thechicsite.com | 'my' wallpaper from the amazing Ellie Cashman and one of the examples of inspirational words that will just <b>have </b>to go up on the wall, from zsazsabellagio.blogspot.com<br />
