The top interior trends for 2018

Not a marble ledge or millenial pink wall in sight, this year, it’s more about understated tones with splashes of bright, luxurious textures and outdoor decorations.

Textures 2018 is going to be the year of leather and velvet. Velvet is billed to be the fabric of choice for statement soft furnishing (yes, this may really be the year to finally invest in that forest green Chesterfield). As for leather, it’s all about bedrooms - think upholstered headboards and quilted chairs.

Pattern Plants It may have seemed like house plants were in their hey day most of last year but they’re not going anywhere. This year, however, they’ll be patterned.

According to Pinterest searches for “pattern plants” is up 533 per cent. With vibrant designs and colours, they may just be the cheapest way to give your room a new lease of life.

Terrazzo Cool in the ‘70s, uncool in the ‘90s, cool in 2018. Yes, Terrazzo

House & Home to the painfully beautiful marble Terrazzo tiles from Max Lamb, expect lots of more affordable options to appear on the market over the coming months as designers open their arms to the composite stone once again.

Statement Ceilings Forget statement walls and look to the ceiling. Searches for “statement ceilings� are up by 310 per cent this year on Pinterest and we can see why. An inventive way to transform a room from the top down - people are keeping the walls one colour but then wallpapering, tiling, decorating or painting the ceiling to make it the standout feature of the room.

Earthy Neutrals Sage is slated to be the new neutral. Replacing the likes of pure white, beige and stone - the muted green with grey undertones is certainly more bold than others but it’s an approachable colour. Paired with woods and a cream colour palette, the green will soften and warm up any space. Other

House & Home The New Metallics Instead of rose and yellow gold, more industrial shades of metal are expected to become the prominent choice. From brass to nickel - less high shine materials will add a more organic element to your space.

Brights Yes, there are new neutrals but bold pigments are still set to be hot this year. BeverleyMag predicts an abundance of burnt orange and greens - including forest and cactus green - as well as peacock blue, Bordeaux and tomato reds with ochre.

Dark woods The Scandi trend that seems to have reigned for, well, forever may have taught us to select bleached woods and indiscreet furniture but this year, we’re going bolder. Expect to see the likes of dark oak, mahogany and textured walnut pieces adding a new depth to a room.

have increased by 121 per cent this year alone. Whether the doors painted with neon hues, framed by decadent bay trees or has a message mat in front of it - people aren’t skimping on outdoors decadence.

Local News

Lots of exciting opportunities at Capitol Park Andrew held an update meeting with Homes England (previously the Homes and Communities Agency) to discuss on-going efforts to encourage new businesses to the site. Andrew previously worked to secure the funding from David Cameron’s Government to construct the road which has opened up the development land.

10

Since this time, he has worked with the Homes and Communities Agency, Government and potential investors to encourage development of the site. Interest has been strong in the site, with announcements expected in the coming weeks and months.

Andrew says, “When I took over as the MP for our area, there had been much talk about what was then known about Capitol Park.

Promises had been made, but the funding for the road wasn’t in place, nor were the various legal agreements needed to develop the road and site. Frankly, the whole thing was a mess which took us a very considerable time to untangle and get sorted.

“I am pleased to say that we got there in the end, and although residents haven’t seen much on site so far, there are lots of exciting opportunities being considered behind the scenes and lots of work taking place. In particular, I and those responsible for funding this scheme, have been absolutely clear that we want operators on this site who are going to bring a better mix of skilled jobs to Goole.

“As such, negotiations have been taking place with a number of potential investors and it is hoped that announcements will be made shortly. Homes England have been working hard to secure this investment, along with the East Riding Council.

There is still more work to be done but the signs are positive and I will continue to do all I can to secure these jobs for the Goole area.”

Spring Weddings Feature

Choosing the right wedding photographer for you.

Booking a wedding photographer can be a real challenge, with so much to consider and seemingly a lot of choice. So, Jenni from Cluskey Smith Weddings has come to the rescue and answered the kind of questions we feel are most important to know when planning your big day.

Cluskey Smith Weddings

There is so much to consider from reportage to formal, which album design to opt for, how many hours to have the photographer there on the day, whether or not to have a pre wedding shoot - where do brides and grooms start!?

What, in your opinion should brides and grooms be looking for in particular when choosing their wedding photographer?

14

Above all, make sure that you feel relaxed and at ease with your photographer(s).

After all, the most important thing is that you enjoy every minute of your day - it’s the photographer’s job to record and capture just that.

Can you imagine having fun and a bit of a giggle with them? If you can, they’re more likely to bring out your ‘best side’ and create a much more natural look to your photography.

There are so many photographers out there and it can be really difficult for people to choose out of them all. Do you have any tips for brides and grooms to help them find the perfect one for them?

Ensure that, when you meet the photographer before booking, they show you examples of a full wedding from start to finish - picking out only the best images from each wedding doesn’t really give a true indication of their style or quality.

Seriously consider having two photographers rather than one, as they are able to capture shots from more than one angle and really help tell a story of your day through the images.

Linked to this - can you imagine getting ready in front of your photographer or with your photographer nearby? Maybe consider looking for a female photographer or a partnership where one of the

To contact

photographers is female. Would they fit in with the girls getting ready in the morning and would you feel comfortable them seeing you in your underwear?!

So many photographers are doing ‘too good to be true’ deals and the costs can really vary between different photographers. What should brides and grooms be paying for good quality service and results?

As with everything, there are good and bad quality photographers (and a real range of service quality) at every level of the market. If, like us, you’re a stickler for good old fashioned quality service, firstly consider the little things - Do the photographers respond quickly via email?

Are they willing to meet up with you before booking? After all you’re likely to be dealing with these people a lot in the run up to your day and also afterwards too!

Another good indication of ‘value for money’ is the quality of the products you’re shown – a wedding is hopefully a once-in-a-lifetime, major event – do the albums and frames feel as though they would last a lifetime too?

Would you be proud to have your wedding album on display on your coffee table or show it to your grandchildren?

An obvious start is to find out what is included in the package and it’s useful to consider how important those aspects are to you. Is an album included in the price or do you have to pay separately? Have you seen the quality of the album? Are there any other elements added?

Think carefully about whether or not to go for an album. Over the past few years, some brides and grooms have opted to go for photographs on a USB in an attempt to lower the cost, thinking that they will then put an album together themselves.

In our experience though, many newly weds just don’t seem to have the time. So one of our key selling points is that we keep the photography and album separate, there’s no pressure to buy the album at the same time so it’s exactly the same price before, during or after the wedding Finally, in your opinion, what do you think are the signs of a great quality wedding photographer?

A love of weddings, a passion for making people happy and a desire to provide only the best quality and service.

Ask yourself this question - Do you feel that your photographer would help keep you calm in the few minutes before you walk down the aisle?

We hope this has helped! A huge thank you to Jenni for her invaluable advice.

THE FINAL SAY!....

Should the bride break 16 with wedding tradition and make a speech alongside the groom?

Gaynor PrestonRouteledge prefers to stay silent, but our Lindsay Adams is all for throwing the rule book out of the window.

Yes

Yes, it’s tradition for the groom, father of the bride and best man to stand up and speak at a wedding, but why shouldn’t the bride get a say too? Chances are she’s the one who’s put months of hard work and passion into all the other aspects of the wedding day, so it only seems fair that she gets a chance to address her guests if she wants to. It’s all well and good looking pretty in a white dress, but most modern brides have plenty to say!

S-T-R-E-T-C-H-Mark’s

I’m getting married in July, and as one of the very few occasions in my life where I’ll be surrounded by all my favourite people, it feels important that I’m able to tell them all how lucky I feel to have them all there to celebrate with me.

My decision to make a speech at my wedding is partly down to the fact that my dad’s no longer around and my mum hates the idea of public speaking, but it would feel strange just to sit and hear people speaking about me without contributing.

Admittedly, the idea has raised a few eyebrows among older family members, but so has the concept of a civil ceremony and an ice-cream tricycle – weddings,

Spring Weddings Feature Heaping yet another expectation on her, of having to write and deliver some warm and witty words, is just too much. I also like the continuity of my father giving a speech, with a response from my husband.

Yes, it means only men will be speaking that day, but really, when you think about it, lots of elements of weddings are pretty sexist: it’s all about the woman being handed over from one man (her father) to another (her husband).

like everything else, have to move with the times!

I can’t wait to stand up and tell all my guests just how thrilled I am to have spent one of the happiest days of my life with them, and, of course, to say publicly just how proud I am to have married my wonderful husband – bring on the applause!

No In my everyday life I’m definitely not someone who believes that a woman’s place is keeping quiet in the home. But on my wedding day? I’m very happy to sit there and let the men hold the microphone.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for equality, but I don’t want the stress of having to think about giving a speech.

I’ve seen enough best men panic for weeks before the big day about the speech that they have to give, especially if they’re not a natural public speaker.

If you’re going to start worrying about equality in the speeches, you really need to review the whole ceremony!And to end on a practical note: there are already enough speeches to contend with without adding a bride’s to the mix.

When it comes to a wedding, there’s already enough pressure on the bride – she’s expected to plan the entire day, ensure everyone has a good time, look amazing and be the centre of attention.

There’s nothing worse than being a guest waiting patiently for your dinner, thinking it’s nearly there, only to find that the bride has popped up and is about to delay it by another 15 minutes.

Gardening

What to do in your garden in February

February already, wonder what the weather will bring this month!! It can prove a busy time of the year for gardeners and all of a sudden there are a thousand and one things that can be done now, such as early sowings of flower and vegetable varieties being started so as to give them a head start. It can also be a good time to start preparations for sowing new lawns, as well as getting the machinery serviced and ready for the coming season if you haven’t done so already.

Trees and Shrubs

l Outdoors (under cloches or in a cold frame) you can sow early varieties of carrot, such as Amsterdam Forcing (pictured below), broad bean, such as The Sutton, and parsnip.

Shallots can also be planted out from the middle of the month.

l To avoid tree and shrub branches from breaking, use a broom to knock off any snow laying on them, should you still be having this type of weather in your part of the country. l Tree ties should be checked making sure they aren’t cutting into the bark. Any worn or damaged ties should be replaced. Should you have experienced any storms or high winds check to see that any tree stakes and ties haven’t been damaged.

26

l Fleece or fine mesh netting is an ideal way of protecting vulnerable plants from severe frost. Our organic fruit and potato fertiliser may be sprinkled around fruit trees and bushes.

Vegetables l Early varieties of potatoes should be chitted (laid out in trays and allowed to form short sprouts) in a cool, light, frost-free place ready for planting towards the end of March – this is proven to increase the yield of the tubers. In the greenhouse or under cover in a warm propagator, you can now begin

Please mention

to sow seeds of cabbage (summer/autumn maturing), celery, parsley, sweet and cayenne pepper, tomato, leek and onion.

l Remember asparagus crowns can be ordered now even though delivery may not be until late March/early April but it is a good time to start preparing the site where they are to grow, ensuring the ground has been dug thoroughly making sure it is free from weeds.

Fruit l Continue to plant soft fruit as the weather permits. Any uncompleted pruning of established fruit trees and bushes should be carried out straight away before growth commences, otherwise this year’s crop may be reduced. It is a good time to prune

when responding to advertisers. Thank you.

Gardening have become overcrowded.

Now that plants have died, before new shoots appear apply a fairly thick mulch, 5-7.5cm (2-3”), could be spread around perennial plants, trees, shrubs and even fruit, but be careful not to cover any dwarf bulbs that may be in flower.

sideshoots back to two or three buds on trained gooseberries. Rhubarb crowns should be covered with buckets which will help to encourage early pickings, also lift and separate any congested clumps. l Outdoor grape vines should be pruned so that last year’s fruited shoots will be shortened therefore encouraging new growth. l Remove any branches getting in the way and prune large apple and pear trees. Also, check any fruit you have stored and remove those that show signs of rot or deterioration.

General Gardening l In areas where the weather is milder, perennial plants that had been in clumps could be divided and the outer, young, healthy parts replanted into freshly prepared soil. It may even be an ideal time to dig up and reposition any shrubs or perennials that

l It may prove very beneficial for a large, clear sheet of polythene, held in place by either bricks or lengths of wood, to be placed over the soil keeping off any heavy rain, ensuring the soil remains dry. As time permits, the sheeting could be folded back, the soil dug over and the sheet replaced – this is particularly helpful when soils are heavy clay.

If you are short of time, another solution may be to cover the soil with compost or manure, and then as spring approaches lightly fork in to the surface which will prepare the soil for planting. Where early sowings are going to be made, it is a good idea to warm the soil up by a few degrees, therefore, approximately

two weeks prior to sowing cover the soil by using a single layer of polythene orfleece.

By doing this it will quickly encourage germination and establishment. l Do keep a look out for pests such as whitefly, and any plants or cuttings that are seen to be infested should be sprayed. l A good way to provide extra winter protection for plants is to use a cold frame which should be situated in full light thereby receiving warmth from the sun but sheltered from cold winds. Ventilation should be provided on warm days so it is a good idea for them to be opened up which will prevent a build up of warmth, however, remember to close them at night. To provide extra warmth an old rug, blanket or even overcoat could be used on nights when conditions are very cold.

l Pots and seed trays which have been left should be thoroughly cleaned, using a little household disinfectant and rinsing with clear, warm water, so that they can be put away for use in the spring. A brush might come in handy to remove any stubborn dirt and old compost that might be harbouring pests or diseases in the pots and seed trays. l It is still a good idea to keep gutters on greenhouses clear of leaves and debris, and to allow maximum light in keep the glass washed
