Hello friends. I’ve something a little different today as I have been meaning to share our conservatory and garden renovations, which we began last September, for a while. Of course, it’s taken me far longer to share it as I was naively optimistic that it would all be done by the spring, but who knew a sofa could take fifteen weeks to arrive… certainly not me!

Behind the paywall this week, you can find out what we did and see my 5 top summer garden recommendations. A paid subscription gives you access to all my archives including travel reviews, fashion finds, stylings tips and beauty recommendations, all for less than a £1 per week.
