Bensons Tea Room is an independent eatery serving up delish meals and drinks in the heart of Stratford-upon-Avon, and what's more they have a wonderful shop a couple of doors down selling gorgeous loose leaf teas and Alice in Wonderland treasures. We could not be more excited to be stocked there!
As lovers of the great outdoors (and bringing it inside when we can!) we couldn't pass up the opportunity this week to visit the amazing Gardeners' World Live (and on our home turf too!) at Birmingham's NEC. The show runs for 4 days, and we decided to book an impromptu day off and go and explore what the show had to offer!
Hello friends! Happy bank holiday weekend! It's going a little dark over here, but we've had some good weather so can't complain too much! The sun will shine again, meanwhile we're busy prepping for those brighter days! We've weeded the garden, the cold frame is full (hedging our bets!) and our new 'Apothecupboard' (Trademark: Us!) is providing the perfect storage for our quirky candles and confections in preparation for those warmer days! We're also trying (very hard!) to rest. (After all, if we don't make time for our wellness and all that!) We've taken the approach that we need to make our spaces work for us - so cue new shelves, a fresh coat of yellow paint and even more...
Hello! We're racing through April! We hope the weather is improving where you are and the lighter nights are making you happy! It might be springtime but over at Pretty Odd HQ we're still surrounding ourselves with gorgeously gothic things!
Hello! Happy March!
I hope you're all well and excited for lighter nights! We're still on a pastel-kick over at Pretty Odd HQ. There's something lovely about this time of year - purples, yellows and soft greens emerging from the ground and mirrored in our new gorgeous Toadstool Cottage Candles from Bookshelf Burns!
