Journey
We purchased our barn back in 2015 from my husband's grandparents. It had been lived in & loved since its conversion in 1988 - full of character, memories and history (it was once part of their farm!)
But as our family grew, the space no longer quite worked. It was charming, but dated, and it didn't fit how we lived day to day. So over the last 10 years, we've been transforming every corner into a family home that's full of warmth, light and quiet charm.
My background isn't interiors, just a deep love for calm, character filled spaces and making things work on a realistic budget. I lean into timeless materials, soft colours and pieces that add meaning over time.
This page is where I share that journey, as well as content creation and collaboration opportunities for brands who want to be part of it.
