Site I’m Loving: Creature Comforts


Creature Comforts feels to me like when I walk into Anthropologie. It’s just filled with impossibly beautiful things!

EZ writes Creature Comforts and describes it as a blog “about celebrating the tiny details that make life so amazing and looking to find beauty in the unexpected.” Her daily inspiration posts are lovely and she also shares her etsy finds, favourite artists, mood boards, DIY ideas and her own beautiful pictures. You can even browse her blog by colour!

Elle Decoration UK recently featured EZ and she gave us a peek into her studio. Gorgeous, no?

You can really get lost in her site. Just remember not to make it feel bad about your own, less beautiful life! It’s meant to inspire you!

Here are a few of my favourite posts:

DIY: Repurposed Tins as Magnetic Organizers

Free Download: Printable Party Bunting and Cupcake Toppers

Colour Crush: Bright Pink

One Good Thing: Message-in-a-Cookie Cutter

Inspiration Daily: 6.25.10

Other sites I’ve been loving include Domestic Sluttery, Make and Takes and Old School.

15% Off Homebase this Weekend


You’ll find E and I at Homebase most weekends. I joke about it being like that scene in Old School where Will Farrell tries to turn down a keg stand because he’s got a big weekend planned starting with a trip to Home Depot (an American home store). We’re always coming up with projects for the flat so we find ourselves making the trek weekend after weekend!

So it was with excitement that I opened my email today and discovered Homebase have a new voucher code out for 15% off when you spend £50 or more through Sunday! You’ll get it by entering DISC15 at checkout. Now behave yourselves, ladies…
