Fancy learning a new skill this year? Why not try your hand at ceramics.

We have found some great courses at Raw Ceramics Workshops in Hackney, London with beginners to more advance options.

We suggest the 3 session beginners course, where you will learn basic techniques from owner Matthew Raw for working with clay. You will get the opportunity to create something from your own ideas.

You will end your 3rd session with fully painted and glazed pieces of work.

Head to PaperNStitch blog for a great, simple tutorial for making a cool modern vase from concrete.

Founded by Swede Anna Sjostrom Walton in 2017, Chalk & Moss is an online homeware store and blog focusing on Biophilic Design.

The term biophilia means love of life or living things. The term was first used in 1964 by psychologist Erich Fromm, defining it as “the passionate love of life and all that is alive”. It was popularised by biologist Edward O Wilson in 1984, who in his book “Biophilia” refers to “an innate and genetically determined affinity of human beings with the natural world.”

The online store is full or gorgeous Scandinavian inspired products including handmade furniture, ceramics and printed linens. This carefully curated collection is all ethically sourced and put together to enhance your wellbeing and lifestyle.

‘So called Biophilic design achieves wellbeing by reconnecting us to nature through the spaces we occupy. This is the umbrella for my approach. It can easily be translated to our own homes through aspects of green design

The rust tone is warm and it’s best layered with lots shades of this one colour – plus splashes of rose as a lightener. This creates a lovely building of the colour with no striking other colours to distract from the colour. It’s not overwhelming at all. It’s also a colour that works with trends including Traveller, Moroccan and Woodland.

If you just want a little rust, use in a clean white or soft grey interior with lots of wood tones and keep minimal so the rust stands out.

For walls we’ve found Red Earth (Farrow + Ball) and Heat (Little Green Paint Co). Create the full impact by also painting skirtings, doors, frames as well as walls in a rust tone.
