PLACES | tiosk




                       

Located on the renowned Broadway Market this tea shop has every tea imaginable. Although it was the decor that attracted me to Tiosk

White brick walls, bare bulbs and copper details gives this place an industrial feel, yet the plants in jars and the snug enclosed seats at the back make it feel comforting. 

Fresh mint tea | £2.50

ACCESSORIES | matte mid rings







I get though middy rings like I get though coffee.. therefore finding a cheap alternative was a must. I found these in a local DIY store.

I was told they function as pipe fittings and are called olives but they function so well as middy rings.
They have this modern matte glaze and are a great shape, plus you can stack them up. They come in two colours; gold and copper,  perfect. 






Middy ring | 24p

Total Cost | £1.20

PLACES | spa



Everything’s white, there’s a roof top pool, green plants, marble and glass pod scented steam rooms.


The Thermae Spa in Bath designed by Grimshaw Architects is well worth a visit. I could only post one photo as images just don’t do this place justice.The spa is filled with glass and steal bridges dotted around connecting the space together and the steam rooms are these huge glass round pods with the largest waterfall shower I have ever seen placed in the centre of them.


The stairs have to be the chicest stairs case ever, they are white with a grey stripe defining each stair and have large black industrial wall lights which frame them. [check for my Instagram for images]





Total | £27.00

DIY | clear mind




Writing a 'To Do' list is the first thing I do every morning, my day becomes extremely unproductive if I don't. Writing on a piece of paper seems wasteful, scrappy and old-fashioned.  I know I could just use my laptop or phone but theres something about having it written down and constantly being in view that makes me motivated. It looks really clean and modern placed on my desk next to my laptop. 

This is a piece of glass from a unused photo frame, its slightly smaller then A4. A sharpie writes on it perfectly and a damp cloth removes it. 



Glass note pad | £0.00
