London-based stylist Twig Hutchinson never fails to sweep me off of my feet. Whenever I visit her website I feel as though I’ve stepped into a magical book filled with delightful stories set amidst deliciously dreamy surroundings. As you know, I’m currently in London and as I walk around here, popping into stores, visiting with some friends that I’ve made via this blog, I’m reminded as to why so many who live in this gorgeous city as producing equally lovely work — you cannot help but do great things in a place like London!
I’m having such a great time, but still reading your comments and tweeting as I am able. There is much happiness in my life currently… I hope that my joy is contagious and that your days are filled with good things too. I wish I could have placed you in my pocket for this fantastic journey, and I can’t wait to tell you more about what I’ve done here in London but this will need to wait until my return on May 21 because I have to run off now to meet a friend in Hampstead. See you! xo, Holly

I’m so glad you’re having a good time in London….Happiness is flowing our way too….We celebrated Mila’s Fifth B’day last Sunday (so B&F too since she was born 2 weeks before we launched BODIE and FOU :-)
And it was a major success! 14 kids + 25 adults…It was crazy, noisy but fantastic to see everyone having such a good time

hi holly,
i’m so glad i visited your blog tonight! my “real” job has been quite hectic this past month – what am i say, it has been INSANELY hectic and stressful and sometimes *bleh* and i’ve had little time for crafting or blog reading!
stopping by this place has made me feel better, at least in this moment. anyhow, these photos are truly magical and i have been thinking about adding another color on top of the light green in my breakfast nook. not streaky, but kind of blend-y (like in the bathroom pic above).
i wish i had a cool name like twig.
ok, i feel i’m coming dangerously close to rambling – have a lovely weekend! :)
