ABOUT

Hola, and welcome to my blog. I am Margarita, the designer behind Chocolate Creative, the homeware brand based in London. I started blogging back in 2009, as part of growing my brand. Originally from Gran Canaria, Spain, moved to London 19 years ago. Trained as a graphic designer, with many years of experience in the industry, and currently working on freelance projects, as part of Story Catchers as well as running Chocolate Creative

My blog has become a space where I share my love for handmade design, independent designers, vintage, and interiors. I like documenting my travels, places of interest, mentions of my life in England and Gran Canaria and my own creative process. 

I am interested in design and interiors, in how we can create a welcoming and confortable home by being true to our style and in budget, creativity is key! I use my house to try out my styling ideas and products before launching them to the market. My eclectic style is a real mix of vintage pieces with contemporary design. I believe in living a life based on sustainability, so recycling and buying less and better quality, is part of the process. 

This blog is a personal blog written by me, I don’t accept guest posts, or take any money for advertising or sponsored posts. I welcome news about products or projects that fit within my style and blog content. Thank you for stopping by! Margarita
