Pretty in pink

louise gorrod March 23, 2016

The fashion-led trend for all things pink, with shades from Barbie through to Ladurée macaroons is just the ticket this spring. 

Our shopkeeper, Louise Gorrod, has scoured The Stuff of Life to find the prettiest of pink products. From pink patterned papers for craft projects by Cambridge Imprints and bright pink bowls from Quince Living to subtle delicate pink blankets and cushions from Mourne Textiles and LAB. One thing’s for sure there is a shade for everyone.

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
