HAPPY DECEMBER! It is scarily already the very last month of the year and it's rather shocking how quickly it all has gone.

THIS MORNING, THE entire countryside was covered in a layer of frost—the rooftops, with their wisps of white chimney smoke, the well-manicured hedges in front gardens and each red and fallen leaf on the sidewalks. And on the hills in the distance, a softly rising mist...
AFTER FINISHING Catch and Kill: Lies, Spies, and a Conspiracy to Protect Predators by Ronan Farrow last week, was a little stressed about choosing the next book to read as that one and most of the ones before were all so good. (This one is a beautiful read, by the way.)
THERE ARE late summer whites and early autumn whites, but perhaps our most favourite are the Winter Whites.

If you've been thinking about adding art to your space and aren't sure where to begin, then this article is for you. To begin, while it may be tempting to follow trends, in the end, it's best to simply buy what you love.
WE’RE A LITTLE SLOWER with the Holiday Gift Guides this year due to the many projects that we’ve taken on in the past few months and are currently in the middle of completing, but so far, we’ve brought you these...
A LONG TIME AGO, I was once given the advice, "Find the thing that you want to do most with your life, and then do one thing every day to get yourself closer to that goal." I remembered and repeated these words to a friend recently, hoping it would help with what she was going through at the moment, to which she replied, but sometimes we get stuck.
Badminton House is a large country house and Grade I Listed Building in Badminton, Gloucestershire, England, and the current home of the Duke and Duchess of Beaufort. It has been the principal seat of the Dukes of Beaufort since the late 17th century, when the family moved from Raglan Castle, which had been ruined in the English Civil War. The house gives its name to the sport of badminton...
OUR LIVING ROOM in the English countryside has those charming wood ceiling beams that you would expect in a cottage in the countryside. And since moving here, my décor tastes have moved, understandably, in the direction of farmhouse and countryside styles...
