Home is \u2026<\/h2>\n

A slowly evolving collection of found and handmade objects. I really value knowing where things are from or how they were made, so the things I gather for my home are always guided by those principles. My cupboards are filled with an eclectic mix of handmade ceramics by artists I know or admire, the furniture sourced from gumtree, op shops and the like, even the plants are propagations of cuttings from friends! Of course, it\u2019s an inherently slow process, but I like it. It means everything I bring into the home is considered and cherished. As much as possible things are ethically sourced and tread as lightly on new resources as possible.<\/p>\n

At the moment, my favourite part of the house is the dining room. Classic bentwoods from a restaurant closure, a teak dining table from gumtree, matching buffet also from gumtree, a mix of handmade ceramics on the shelves and bowls always spilling with fresh fruit and veg. My household loves to host, which is probably why the dining room was first to be furnished. The walls are looking a little bare though, so, onto that next.<\/p>\n
