Last night saw some excellent live performances from many of the nominees for the Choice Music Prize 2009 (don't worry, you are looking at the ceremony held in 2010, it's just for the best Irish album of 2009), but by far the best were Dark Room Not...

Just a quick post to say a huge thank you to House and Home magazine for including me in their ‘Hot 100 People, Places and Products’ in this month’s edition, out now. I genuinely love this magazine, so it was a complete honour and thrill to be in this issue. Also, I hate false modesty, so please believe me when I say it was quite shocking and humbling to be placed amongst these very talented people, such as Abigail Ahern, Jonathan Legge from A Shop, designer Danielle MacInnes and so many more. Just a huge thrill. I know I’ve used that word already, but forgive me, that’s just what it is..! It’s also a great resource list for any of you design enthusiasts or DIYers out there, so do take a looksee!
Also, I want to thank Zita from Homebug.net who...

My second interiors feature is in the Irish Independent property supplement today (Fri)…It’s a segment called ‘Put your stamp on it..‘, where I take a house that’s currently on the market for sale, and give it a hypothetical makeover using products sourced from around Ireland and the internet.
I also go to an interiors store and set up a room in the style I think would suit the home, and this time around, photographer Andrew Clancy and I paid a visit to the beautiful ‘SKI interiors‘ in Naas. The second image is a small selection from the products featured today, including the beautiufl, and incredibly affordable hand painted sideboard from Strawbridge in Co. Wicklow.
You can see more in the Independent today, I hope you like it!

My hair is generally living off by itself in a land of dementedness, in fact it’s the king of that land. Yes my hair is a man, it seems. Sometimes when shooting, the down look just won’t work with me, so like today I just try and hold it up like a garda with a drunk auld lad. I’ve heard of things like clips and hairbands, but I just don’t think they’ll catch on. Hands will do.
I’m also trying to up my game on my own images here on blanaid.com..this casual outfit seemed harmless enough to start with…. Thanks to Dave from The Coffey Filter for wandering around with me this afternoon and generally being great.
