A little break

Our first in three years! What paid subscribers need to know

Trowelettes -

Since 2023, between us there’s been babies, books, major house moves (one each). Grief, estrangements, new love, new haircuts - not all of them beloved*. And through all of it there’s been a Trowel every week. It feels weird to allow ourselves off the treadmill, but it’s the right time to take a few weeks off to gather fresh ideas for when we’re back.

Already some exciting conversations are happening…

There may well be the odd little hello landing in your inbox, perhaps with a product one of us has been enjoying. It’ll be hard to keep away! But they’ll be more like postcards, and we won’t be taking money for them.

During the break, we’ll be pausing paid subscriptions, and we’ve unlocked all our archive content. Everyone will have free access to the Trowel for a bit. If you’re on a yearly subscription, the time we’re on pause won’t count to your 12 months - it’ll just pick back up again when The Trowel returns.

In the meantime, for those of you who are beauty minded, might we suggest The Powder Room , Fun Little Treat, The Perfume Playground, Sample Sluts, MAKING SCENTS OF IT ALL and, of course, Home . See you there in the comments.

Lots of love,

Becks and Claire 💋
