Last week, my best friend Holly and I went to see Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, and I haven’t stopped thinking about it since. Beyond the classic Bridget chaos and laugh-out-loud moments (and tears!), what really stuck with me was her Hampstead house—charming, a little messy, but effortlessly cosy. It’s the kind of home that feels lived-in, full of personality, and filled with unmistakable warmth.
I loved the scene where Bridget is curled up on her sofa, swearing at Netflix because she’s forgotten her password. We’ve all been there. And while life outside can be unpredictable, your home is the one space you can control. It’s where you create comfort, beauty, and a sense of sanctuary—a place you actually want to spend time in at the end of a long day.
As someone with a busy schedule, I’ve come to appreciate the power of interiors more than ever. There’s nothing better than walking through the door and feeling instantly at ease, surrounded by meaningful objects—textiles collected from travels, vintage finds, and, of course, beautiful handmade cushions that add depth and softness to a room. My housemate shares my love for interiors, and even though we rent, we’ve made our space feel like home—somewhere lived-in rather than just a temporary stopover.
The Daffodil Cushion, with its golden floral design, is a bright and joyful reminder that spring is here, bringing light and warmth into your home. I chose to add ruffles for a softer, more romantic aesthetic—a contrast to the sophistication of piped edges. The result is a cushion that feels both timeless and inviting, perfect for layering on a sofa or bed.
Each Calver cushion is made from 100% linen and printed in the UK, ensuring quality craftsmanship and longevity. The fabric’s natural texture adds character, making each cushion a statement piece while still blending seamlessly into a curated home.
At Calver, I believe in slow interiors—creating pieces with care and intention rather than mass production. That’s why I offer a bespoke, made-to-order service for my cushions. You can choose your favourite Calver fabric, select the perfect size, and decide between ruffles, piping, or no edge at all. Each cushion is handcrafted to suit your space.
