This week I was thrilled to receive a box of early #USA copies of #BeautifulLiars 🇺🇸It’s always a buzz to see how foreign editions turn out and I love the look of this one ✨ Out in US June 2019!
I’ve been having a BIG declutter in the small space between projects. Last week was clothes and bedding (6 bags recycled) ... this week it’s my office, as I attempt to return it to a place of peace after months of hard edits and domestic neglect. I’ve shredded, culled books (a little!), filed, and now it’s time to get back to the desk - and write! Of course, I’m a stationery hoarder, so finding a new notebook is never a problem 😁
I’m working hard at reducing my plastic consumption - at least the bits which can’t be recycled. We get through a lot of hand wash in our busy house, but it feels so wrong to buy pump packs knowing the pump components go straight to landfill 😢 So, I’ve just bought these lovely amber bottles and from now on will simply top up from large recyclable containers of gentle shower gel. It’s a small step, but hey, little steps add up. Also, good old coconut oil has become a household staple: cleanser, moisturiser, hair mask, healer, cooking ingredient - it’s a wonder product! ✨ #lessismore
