Live it Love it Sell it

It's been 10 years since I lost my beautiful Mum which is almost unbelievable. She is still so very alive in many ways for me and all around me every day.

I wanted to share a little more about the amazing lady she was with you all, and I hope that this 25 min tea break will inspire you a little and make all of us feel that even when our loss is devastating, the memories are the celebration of knowing and loving that person.

Here's to Brenda Rose - the quiet, loving and strong force that sits behind everything I do - love you Mum xx

Kettle on 🥰
