Michelle Lucas
Digital Content Manager
Michelle is our digital content manager and editor. With many years’ experience of writing and editing content - both online and printed - she has a passion for home decor and enjoys being able to create content to help people with their home and garden projects. Michelle's love for musical theatre and singing has given her the opportunity of visiting one of her favourite places, New York, where she has performed with her UK based singing group at Carnegie Hall! In her quieter moments, you’ll find her at home searching for new trends and inspiration online, reading epic fantasy novels over a cup of cappuccino or harmonising (loudly) to her favourite Stevie Nicks songs.

She has a penchant for crafts, interior design, and freshly brewed coffee. If she’s not at home curled up with her favourite book, you’ll find her searching for the latest addition to her houseplant collection (either that or on a plane halfway across the globe).
