Can you Open Your Mind to New Ideas, Challenge your thoughts and Spark Conversation?

It is already 5 months into 2022… Where has this year gone already? Normally by now, a lot of us have either stuck by our new year's resolutions or they disappeared just around February time? I am happy to say this year I have definitely (so far) stuck to my resolutions and attempted to make time for myself.

Exciting new project for one of our favourite pubs!

We've recently had the pleasure of completing a special project for the Brownlow Inn. It was a privilege to be able to work with them as it is one of our favourite places to eat as a family. We have been going there for family celebratory meals for years including our engagement and pre-wedding night, so as you can imagine, it holds lots of special memories. So we couldn't be more proud to see some of our furniture taking pride of place in their bar eating area.

April News from the workshop – Living the life you dream of!

In January 2021, I completed a vision workshop with Michala Leyland. She taught me how to visualise what I want to achieve in the near future regarding Semper Hopkins Upholstery & Interiors and how I can balance my time without burning out!

2022 The year of doing the things I love, and the year I turn 40….

Where has 2022 gone? We are already at the end of March. This year marks a big milestone birthday for me. I turn 40 on the 21st April, very luck to share the same birthday as the Queen. At the beginning of the year I had considered writing up 40 things I wanted to do when I turn 40, but that seemed like a daunting task to think of 40 things and it takes precious time, so here I am just going along with it and doing it. My motto for 2022 was to do more things that make me happy, and doing less planning is one of them!
