This Saturday started like any other day, but as soon as I looked out of the window, I was inspired. So many things had changed.

It has been months since I did an interview for my ‘Meet the Muse‘ blog series, it’s time to get the ball rolling again!

I wish I could visit each and every one of your homes, experience “the vibe” and see how it links to your unique personality.
I played around with neutrals for a very long time, but red and blue were never far away.
