101 things in 1001 days. CovetCollect.Connect started as a place to. Ideas, thoughts, and a whole host of designs, products and creations to be inspired by, long for and aspire to or. And share all of that with fabulous friends and online communities too. It's a mouthful, I know, but rather than get stuck in trying to find a great name, I just had to get on and get started! A suprisingly easy weightloss regime (thanks to Michael Pollan. And a social calendar full of weddings give rise to. An idea inspire...

covet.collect.connect: about the shop
http://www.covetcollectconnect.com/p/about-shop_27.html
101 things in 1001 days. As my blogging journey continued, I realised that both interiors and curating the stories of people's lives through their collections is one of my passions - and I thought I might like to open an online shop - it's what I meant by number 19 on the 101 list. Instead, life intervened, and a visit to Chelsea Flower Show in May 2012 kickstarted an adventure that led to the opening of the real life Covet and Collect shop on October 26, 2012. You can visit the website for the shop here.

101 things in 1001 days. 101 things in 1001 days. So, I've mentioned it before, and now I'm committing. Here are the start of 101 things I intend to accomplish during the next 1001 days. The idea isn't mine, it was Mackenzie's over at Design Darling. To see her list, and let me know if you make one of your own. The basic premise is that 1001 days is long enough to be a mix of bucket list, goals and 'to do'. That is not how we roll around here! I will report back. 1001 days from now. Is October 9, 2014.

covet.collect.connect: friday flowers: day + molefe at the table
http://www.covetcollectconnect.com/2013/11/friday-flowers-day-molefe-at-table.html
101 things in 1001 days. Friday, 15 November 2013. Friday flowers: day molefe at the table. We're about to slide into what the papers are saying will be the coldest British winter on record. Which is also pretty much what they said last winter, and the one before. Global warming needs a new name since its current moniker is a cruel taunt as it's mostly freezing! Which pretty much describes that whole weekend - long walks, best friends, lots of laughs, wine, puppy dog cuddles and birthday cake.

covet.collect.connect: to aunt is divine
http://www.covetcollectconnect.com/2013/11/to-aunt-is-divine.html
101 things in 1001 days. Friday, 8 November 2013. To aunt is divine. Last week my sister arrived, somewhat unexpectedly, along with the supernieces. Yay for surprises involving the supernieces. Halloween was slap bang in the middle of half term, and my sister had thought I might want to do the trick or treat thing. This year the supernieces and I are all at ages where we could enjoy it equally:. Tonight I said goodbye to my nieces, aged 7 and 2.5. Would that be okay? Explains why you'll find me frocked u...

http://www.covetcollectconnect.com/p/about-me.html
101 things in 1001 days. If we're all the sum of nature and nurture, then it's no wonder this is proving a tricky page to write. Born in Zimbabwe, raised in South Africa, British through ancestry, and considering my next move, i. T would appear I'm a lesson in contradictions:. I like camping. And five star hotels. I color co-ordinate my closets and bookshelves (and yours if you leave me alone long enough), but I am sometimes too busy to pick up my clothes off the floor. Oh, and at night time when I battl...

covet.collect.connect: wild about wallpaper
http://www.covetcollectconnect.com/2013/04/wild-about-wallpaper.html
101 things in 1001 days. Tuesday, 16 April 2013. This image in April's Lonny. Was my favourite - when I saw it my immediate thought was that it I'd probably smile *every* single time I crossed the hall. I don't think I'd ever get bored of it. And then I read the caption - how true? It led me to doing some research on Zuber. Back in 2001, Forbes. Michael Smith's inspired design using Zuber paper in this small bedroom manages to give it a big country house personality. And then this: '. On a happier note t...

covet.collect.connect: friday flowers
http://www.covetcollectconnect.com/2013/11/friday-flowers_8.html
101 things in 1001 days. Friday, 8 November 2013. The supernieces' well timed visit meant I had a hand in creating this week's seasonal floral display at our local hairdresser - two little hands in fact, that were superbly adept at squashing in the gourds and moss around the first Amaryllis of the season, alongside leucadendron safari sunset and the upright curls of golden salix that provided just the right level of witchiness.
