Life Behind the Scenes

I’ve been a bit absent lately from the RT blog but Kelly & Holly have been doing such a fantastic looking after things, I do hope that you have been enjoying the new posts? Life has been so hectic, with running two business (my design studio & the Make it in Design site), moving cities & having a baby all in the space of twelve months that I’ve well & truly exhausted myself. This week I feel like I’m finally getting my mojo back. I recently celebrated my 32nd Birthday & had a bit of much needed time out with family & friends. Taking a step back does you the world of good doesn’t it? When you are running around at such a fast pace you can really miss out on celebrating the little things. It can be so hard to allow yourself breathing space during a hectic schedule but it’s so important in order to appreciate the ‘now’ & not get caught up in the future plans & never ending to-do lists.

What do you do to manage your work/life balance? I’d love to hear your thoughts. I have so much going on right with work & life and I’m so excited to share it all with you as I get stuck into blogging again.

Here are a few snapshots taken from my personal Instagram feed sharing a few of my favourite things lately: from Birthday flowers, to spending time with my fun baby Blayke, some of the lovely Birthday gifts that I received & our first ever garden party (at the new pad). I can’t wait to design my garden & build my outdoor drawing cabin. I feel lucky to have such a great starting space to work with.

Until next time…
