SHOP + STUDIO

A Quiet Life came about as a result of my own desire for a more intentional, less distracted way of living, our shop is a reflection of that ambition. We offer a curated collection of simple, useful pieces for your home.

From unique vintage finds, to handpicked homewares and items we craft ourselves, every piece is chosen with practicality and daily life in mind, yet each one is special enough to treasure and pass on for years to come.

We will also be hosting workshops and events throughout the year.

Our shop is located in Holywood, County Down.
