About me
I've been writing for Ideal Home magazine for over 12 years where I started out on the interiors team, looking after the magazine’s real homes and makeovers features.
After going freelance following the birth of my twins, I continued to write for Ideal Home, as well as other leading homes titles. In 2011 I set up my own interiors blog, Growing Spaces, to chart my own home renovation projects and makeovers, and I still love creating content for her blog in her spare time.
I rejoined the Ideal Home family a couple of years ago and am currently Executive Editor across Ideal Home and Style at Home.
