The autumn edition of my newsletter, Still Life, went out to subscribers today.⁠
⁠
From a poem by Nigerian-born contemporary poet Ijeoma Umebinyuo to my review of Dolly Parton's America, I serve up a platter of all my favourite cultural nibbles. ⁠
⁠
If you're not on the list but would like to be, there's a sign-up link in my bio. Alternatively, drop me a DM and I'll add you manually (in doing this, you are giving me permission to use your data for this sole and specific purpose). ⁠
⁠
Have a gorgeous weekend. x

Mood du jour, represented by a seasonally-appropriate scene from my living room. ⁠
⁠
Shall we call the mood "bit wobbly but holding together, staying cute 💁🏼‍♀️"⁠
⁠
Is it just me, or has this been a confusing week for days of the week? My husband and I enjoyed a lazy, boozy TV supper last night (we normally eat at the dinner table), in celebration of the news I've been shortlisted for the Wedding Industry Awards @twia . It all felt very Fridayish. ⁠
⁠
Enormous and misty-eyed thanks to my customers who voted, and also to the wedding suppliers community who chip in good vibes and morale support. I appreciate you all more than you'll ever know from these little squares. ⁠

Five bookings remaining for Wedding Bouquet Illust

Five bookings remaining for Wedding Bouquet Illustration Service in 2020. Always keen to avoid a last minute panic ... if you are requesting a bouquet illustration for Christmas, it's time to starting heavy-hinting now 💚. ⁠

To my US and Canadian friends, the UK Royal Mail is advising 7 working days delivery to you, though I expect that may extend in December.
⁠
Drop me a DM if you'd like me to email over information or examples and customer reviews. Lots of love, Charlotte x⁠

I've compiled a list of the quickest tasks to cosy up your home life, ideal if you are feeling a bit... meh. ⁠
⁠
Personally, I have been feeling the push and pull of living creatively since the news that London is descending into tougher lockdown once more. "Necessity is the mother of all inventions" says my mother, in these situations. And while I want that to be true, and allow the restrictions to birth new creative ideas, it's easy to feel stuck and uninspired. ⁠
⁠
So I hope this list is idea-sparking, at the least. You'll also be signed up to my newsletter, Still Life, which I claim to be bi-monthly, though really bi-annual is closer to the mark. I am intending to send out an autumn edition next week though, featuring my favouite reads, recipes and seasonal recommendations. ⁠

An exquisite archway, created for an intimate summer 2020 wedding by @flowersbypassion⁠
⁠
When the photos arrived in my inbox, I was misty-eyed at the wedding this couple created, despite the unexpected circumstances. Vibrant, joyful, fun. My challenge was to express the spirit of this floral installation whilst gently exaggerating scale of the blooms and foliage to show them off to full effect. ⁠
⁠
A fabulous variation on my classic Wedding Bouquet Illustration Service (£290) ⁠

2020’s been a bit of a shocker, hasn’t it? We’ve juggled, we’ve pivoted, we’ve survived and thrived the very best we can. And now we want to end the year by serving up our families the best Christmas that circumstances allow. ⁠
⁠
I’m not a qualified environmentalist, just a mum on a mission to make our family Christmas big on magic, low on waste, easy and fun. Bamboo toothbrushes from small eco brands that you can simply tag onto your Ocado shop? I got you. ⁠
⁠
It feels very early to be sharing this post, but my Google Analytics tells me 30% of my visits to my website in the last two weeks have been clicks from Pinterest to my 2019 Stocking Fillers guide. So the updated 2020 version is now LIVE. Keen to avoid a panicked Amazon haul, I've been keeping my eyes peeled for small, useful, low pricepoint gifts you can buy online, supporting small businesses. ⁠
⁠
Please do share your ideas below, or save this post if you can't bear to give headspace to Christmas before the Hallowe'en decorations are up! ⁠
