Cherry blossoms and chloe sofa...





It's been so long since I have written a post that I wasn't too sure if anybody was still visiting. However I received an email this morning from a lovely blogger who kindly wrote a note to check if everything was OK. I'm happy to say that all is going well in my little world.  

We are just about to start building a new house so I've been busy finalising the plans and sourcing decor & fittings for all the rooms. I have also been designing a new website and setting up an online business that I hope to launch in May called 'Ojoli'. It's been quite a challenge because I've had to teach myself a whole new set of skills.  I've also started studying a new course through the International School of Colour & Design (Interior Styling & Colour Design). I'm enjoying it immensely and look forward to applying what I've learnt to some upcoming projects. So I'm tackling lots and lots of NEW stuff at the moment!! 

I'll certainly try to post a few more updates and any pieces of inspiration I come across over the next few months.
