Took my beautiful daughter to the @fundaciomiro today and she was an absolute angel. We weren’t sure how a 3 year old in an art gallery would go down but she loved and even did a few of her own ‘Miro’ inspired drawings herself. Hope you’re having a great week so far. #happyhumpday #joanmirofoundation #miro #threeyearoldartist #wallhanging #barcelonaart #artgallery #tapestry #weaving
What an amazing shot I had to share. Morning skies are so beautiful. There are not many perks to being woken up at the crack of dawn by our three year old but this morning sky made it worthwhile! Hope you have a happy Monday too. We’re off to explore the city parks today xxx #barcelonabeach #barcelonacity #barcelona_world #barcelonaexperience #skyphotography #skyline #cloudphotography #sky_perfection #holiday #vacation #relax
Happy Saturday!! We’re off to Barcelona for the week to eat nice food, walk on the beach, visit museums, play, sleep, relax and just enjoy the beautiful city.

So Friday night I worked from 10am until 10pm in the shop rearranging, cleaning, restocking and restyling. Almost 6 years ago I opened this little shop with a small collection of vintage pieces and built it into its current look. Last Friday I looked at my creation and felt humbled by what this small business has given me and the ability to: work for myself and raise my beautiful daughter at the same time; have a creative outlet and showcase my skills and passion for interior design; build wonderful relationships with customers who have turned into friends; add a bit of colour and creativity to Church Road Hove. The list could go on! But, certainly in the past two years the decline in foot fall is increasingly apparent. All I can say is please, please keep visiting and buying from small independents - we are all suffering no matter how talented we are as shopping trends are continually changing and online purchasing is becoming second nature. Without the colour and variation of independents, the high street, small towns and even villages will look very different. I salute anyone running their own show whatever it is - it can be tough and relentless but incredibly rewarding and satisfying at the same time. So thank you, thank you, thank you for all you love and support and appreciation for my little shop.

So happy it’s hump day! I spent yesterday repainting the shop front to a lighter colour after having gone fashionable grey last year it never really worked with a north facing shop front so I chose #slakedlime by @littlegreenepaintcompany which I’m so happy with. Colour can really change the way you feel about a space and how you feel in it. If you need any colour advise please let me know as I love working with colour and space. #littlegreenpaintcompany #littlegreenepaint #colourmyhome #colourinspo #shopinterior #homewaresboutique #shopindependent #trendsetter #plantlife #urbanjungle #urbanshop #hove #brighton
❗️P O P U P S H O P❗️ So things are changing here at Keep It Living HQ! With the successful launch of the new website and the choice to move our home and family along the coast to sunny St Leonards-on-sea, we have decided to offer the rear of our shop to pop up stores and creatives looking for a retail space in Hove. There is so much scope in this pretty little shop and I’m open to ideas so please share this post and get in touch with any thoughts or questions. #excitingtimesahead #newbeginnings #popupshop #popupbrighton #popuprestaurant #popup #newideascoming #thisisbrighton #hove #brighton #opportunityknocks #pleaseshare #interiorblogger #brightonbloggers #shoplocal #shoplife
What a week it’s been! Brand new stock arrived on Tuesday which has taken pretty much the last 3 days to sort, unpack and merchandise. So many lovely pieces now in and waiting to be snapped up. Also don’t forget to have a look on the website for a selection of products. More being added regularly so keep an eye out. Hope you’re having a great Friday so far...x #newstock #interiorinspiration #homedecor #homebeautiful #houseplants #urbanjungle #lifestyle #shoplocal #shoppingonline #homeinterior #interiordesigninspiration #hove #brighton #shopping
Another view of the shop which isn’t always seen when you walk in. I love this PS wall system against the dark walls and the hexagonal mirrors look great in the background. We’re open 12-5 today so pop in if you’re nearby. #happyhumpday #wednesdayvibes #shoplove #shoplocal #independentshop #beautyiseverywhere #midcenturymodern #midcenturyfurniture #midcenturyforsale #furnituredesign #furnitureforsale #hove #brighton #interiordecorating #interiormagazine #interiorblogger #lifestyle
