10 Things I Learned & Loved This Weekend

1. I still can’t get over the beauty of the autumnal season.
2. The St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel looks really inviting at dusk (well, if we’re being honest, at anytime!)
3. Loved these Tom Dixon pendants.
4. Had fun spray painting pumpkins gold for our Halloween decorating.
5. Clear, blue skies on a crisp, autumn day are to be savoured.
6. I enjoyed reading Jan Constantine’s new book Love Stitching and it inspired me to get sewing again soon, particularly to make this anchor seat pad. (Photography: Caroline Arber, Publisher: Jacqui Small)
7. I discovered Rob Hodgson’s illustration shoppe – his Milk City print is my favourite.
8. Liberty’s new stationery range is really pretty.
9. How fabulous is this egg cup?!
10. I have my eye on these Jack Wills gloves for the winter season.

The St Pancras Renaissance Hotel has been on my hotel wish-list for some time. I've seen amazing images of the restored interior. Lovely to see that it's so lovely from the outside too. Have a lovely week!

I so wish I could stay at the St Pancras hotel before we go to Paris. Unfortunately we're staying in a grotty Travelodge instead ha!

Love the autumn photo!

@Hannah – Oh, now that would be glamorous! That being said, Travelodge can be alright if you get a newer one. At least you'll be really excited for Paris! Yay!

Love your spray painted pumpkin – such a great idea! That egg cup is pretty cool too! xx

Gold pumpkins just might be better than orange pumpkins. Would be cool if the pumpkin “guts” inside were actually hearty chunks of (real) gold, eh?

If only…
