1. Spring is the best time to ride through London, especially on a blue skied, sunny day. How gorgeous is all that pink blossom?
2. I think my permanent social media status should be: Always colour hunting!
3. The Times newspaper named the
Bright.Bazaar book as one of the best books for your ottoman. Not only that but they also wrote how the prime minster’s wife, Samantha Cameron, was recently pictured in a rare interview sitting on a mustard-yellow sofa with graphic animal cushions that’s very similar to the cover of my book, which is my old living room! They said: “If it’s good enough for the prime minster’s stylish wife, then it’s good enough for us.” It’s so exciting to see such a huge endorsement for the book a whole year after it was published – I am thrilled!
4. London was on #makeyousmilestyle fire on Saturday afternoon.
5. I randomly spotted this tiny Paddington Bear soft toy in a window box and it made me smile.
6. If I see a Whippet while walking through Primrose Hill high street (or, frankly, any high street) I will run after it and ask its owner if I can have a picture with it. This fellow is called Merlin and it made my weekend meeting him!
7. The
interview I did with the Guardian newspaper about the
3D House I designed for Valspar Paint went live.
8. I love the loose yet striking look of this
Witty Conversation tablecloth, which was the result of a collaboration with talented Danish illustrator,
Ulla Puggaard. 9. I’m smitten with this mini pot from
Shino Takeda Ceramic. 10. I love all the colours and textures of this
Tasseled Jacare Pillow.

Love this series Will. Great to see you so happy and living life to the full. Have a good week!
@Jules – That’s really sweet of you to say, thanks. Enjoy your week as week! 🙂
That optical illusion wall you did for Valspar is amazing I’m gonna show my fiancé now!!!
@Gem – Oh, thank you! I loved working on it.
Oh Will I feel you live in a world where it’s always sunny and everything is bright and colourful. I am so jealous lol. Loved cycling in the East End of London as a student nurse. Take your life in your hands down the Mile End Road. How exciting to have your interview live and the book given a big thumbs up.
So happy to have my fave blogpost back and rocking

Hi Will, where did you get that Shino Takeda ceramic? Love the colours!

Congratulations for everything & thank you for bringing the colourful and happy way of living in our everyday lives. Keep walking!
@Andriana – Thank you for the kind congratulations, and for following along with my colour hunting! 🙂
Whippets are some of the cutest/sweetest dogs I’ve met. I have a friend who has an Italian Greyhound – which remind me a lot of Whippets, and I’m always incredible close to kidnapping her when I visit him.
