šŸ” Interior Tip | Week 10

Right, let’s talk about colour.

Because I think we’re all a little bit scared of it. šŸ˜‚

There isn’t a right colour or a wrong colour.

If you love it, you love it.

Start by looking around your home.

What colours do you keep coming back to?

Maybe it’s a cushion, a painting, a vase or even the colours you wear.

That’s probably a good place to start.

And you don’t have to go mad.

If you’re nervous, don’t paint the whole room bright pink. šŸ˜‚

Try a cushion, a throw, some artwork or a rug.

Even a little bit of colour can make a big difference.

And please don’t feel like everything has to match.

A few different shades can work really well together.

In fact, if everything matches perfectly, it can look a bit too perfect.

If you’re thinking about painting, get some tester pots.

Paint a decent-sized bit of card and look at it in different parts of the room, at different times of day.

Colours can look completely different depending on the light.

And if you hate it?

Paint over it.

It’s only paint. šŸ˜‚

Choose something you actually love looking at.

That’s usually a pretty good place to start.

And if you’re still not sure, start with a cushion.

It’s a lot easier to change than a wall. šŸ˜‚

Next week, we’re talking about mixing patterns because yes, you can have more than one pattern in a room without it looking completely bonkers.

THIS WEEK’S NEWS 🫠

Regretted taking the fan home because obviously… the sun came out. ā˜€ļøšŸ˜‚

Still didn’t do my Christmas orders.
They’re on the list.
The list is getting longer.

I did manage to write this week’s email though, so that’s arriving in your inbox later. Small wins. šŸ˜‚

Spilt tea down my shirt.
Sorry if you had to look at that on Thursday. It wasn’t my best look. ā˜•ļø

And finally… half a delivery I was expecting arrived.

HALF.

So now I’m wondering whether I need to panic buy things to fill the gaps. šŸ˜‚

Just another perfectly organised week at Rebel & Ashby. šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

25/09/2026

Things that would get me sacked if I was employed… šŸ˜‚

Swearing too much.
Honestly, this would be a disciplinary meeting waiting to happen.

šŸ›ļø Shoplifting
AKA taking things home because I chose them & work here, so technically… šŸ˜‚

ā˜• Lots of tea breaks
A ridiculous amount of tea is consumed in this shop.

🚪 Leaving the shop unattended
Because I’ve gone outside for a chat.
It’s networking. Obviously.

šŸ™ƒ Procrastinating instead of doing the thing
I’ll just stand here and rearrange this one little bit… for 45 minutes.

šŸ—„ļø Shoving things in drawers instead of putting them away properly
Future me can sort that out.

🄵 Closing early because I’m too hot
No explanation needed.

It’s a good job I’m not employed, really. šŸ˜‚

Although technically I am my own boss…
So I could sack myself.

But who would make the tea? ā˜•šŸ˜‚

šŸ” Interior Tip | Week 9

Right, this week we’re talking accessories.

And I’m going to say something that might upset some of you…

You probably have too many. šŸ˜‚

I know. I know. This is made advice from someone that sells stuff!

But sometimes a room just has stuff everywhere.

Candles. Vases. Books. Bowls. Little things you’ve collected. Things you bought because they were cute. Things you don’t even remember buying.

And then you wonder why the room feels a bit… busy.

You don’t need to get rid of everything.

In fact, I’d much rather have a home with personality than one that looks like a furniture showroom.

But try taking a few things away.

Clear a shelf.

Take half the stuff off your coffee table.

Move a few bits around.

Then see how it feels.

Sometimes giving your favourite things a bit more space makes them look so much better.

And don’t feel like everything needs to match.

I actually think rooms are much more interesting when you mix things up.

Different textures.

Different heights.

Old with new.

Something shiny next to something a bit rough.

Something you’ve had for years next to something you’ve just bought because, frankly, you couldn’t leave it behind. šŸ˜‚

One of my favourite tricks is to work in groups of three.

A vase, a candle and a little bowl.

A stack of books, something tall and something small.

It just tends to look more balanced without you having to overthink it.

And vary the heights, if everything is the same height, it can look a bit flat.

Basically, don’t just fill every available space.

Let your room breathe.

And most importantly, accessories should tell a bit of your story.

Your home shouldn’t look like you walked into a shop and bought the entire display.

It should look like you live there.

So this week, try a little accessory edit.

Take a few things away.

Move some things around.

And see what happens.

You might discover you’ve got a whole new room…without spending a penny.

Although obviously, if you do need a new vase…

I know a place. šŸ˜‚

Next week we’re talking about lighting and why one sad little ceiling light is absolutely not enough.
Please let me know if you are finding this weekly post helpful 🄰

My fave thing this week šŸ‘„

This lip oil.

Yes, I do have one myself. šŸ˜‚

And yes, I absolutely did buy it for the shop knowing full well I’d probably end up keeping one.

It’s just SO good. A little bit of something lovely that makes you feel slightly more put together, even when the rest of you really isn’t.

Basically, if you need a little treat… this is it.

I only have a few left so be quick

The sun is still out ā˜€ļø

But autumn is slowly creeping into the shop… šŸ‚

A few cosy bits are making their way in, while I’m still pretending Christmas isn’t on my to-do list. šŸ˜‚

Spoiler: it definitely is.

So basically, we’re currently living somewhere between sunshine, autumn and me trying to remember everything I need to do before Christmas. šŸŽ„

If you’re in St Neots, pop in and have a mooch as there’s always something new to find.

And don’t forget, we deliver too, so if you can’t make it into the shop, you can still have a little Rebel and Ashby delivered to your door. šŸ“¦

See you in the shop šŸ‘‹
