Day out at Sewerby Hall


Sewerby Hall





On Sunday we took a trip to Sewerby Hall in Bridlington.
It is a Grade I listed Georgian country house set in 50 acres of landscaped gardens in the village of Sewerby, 2 miles from the seaside town of Bridlington in the East Riding of Yorkshire. We had lovely weather, perfect for ice creams and a wander around the beautiful walled garden there.

I spent a good hour just enjoying being in the gardens, smelling and drawing the flowers. Listening to the sound of walking along the stones, the sound of the small waterfall. It was so peaceful for a Sunday afternoon.

I love Georgian and Victorian style houses. From the tall ceilings with decorative touches, large windows for natural light, to the fabric used for the curtains, table cloths etc. I felt so inspired in this house. I loved the real wood furniture. The quality of everything is what I aspire my house to be full of. Even the kitchen had traditional scales for measuring and heavy copper and silver pans.

The Zoo

Penguins <3

We loved the zoo - everyones favourites being the penguins but I loved the pigs, there scrunched up grumpy faces. As well as the baby ducks, so cute! 



It was a lovely day and I would recommend it to anyone that likes being nosey in old houses, it's also a great day out with kids as there is a zoo and a little park.

The Hepworth Christmas Market


This weekend I went to The Hepworth in Wakefield to visit the Christmas Market. I managed to buy a few Christmas presents from there and some treats for myself too! It was filled with lovely independent makers so it felt good to buy from them.
Treats from The Printed Peanut & Colours May Vary!

New Designers

Hello! I got back from a super busy week in London on Sunday. We had a great time, lots of companies were interested in my work including Wilko, Mothercare, Tesco F&F, George Asda, Next and Meri Meri. It was a successful event and has made me motivated to keep going and applying for jobs. I have a job interview next week which is also super exciting, fingers crossed!
