- “English interior design is respected throughout the world, and Sims Hilditch is at the forefront of understanding how decoration and practicality can work hand in hand. Explore the firm’s many projects and see how interiors have evolved to embrace new ways of living.
Emma Sims-Hilditch is best known for creating relaxed, elegant interiors that are ideal for the values and lifestyles of a new generation. The environments she makes offer an insight into the considered house of the future-simple, beautiful, and practical, advancing a new style of living that is transforming not only the lives of homeowners but also communities. Sims-Hilditch gives advice on the best ways to decorate and organize a home. She embraces traditional materials translated for contemporary living: interior stone walls, comforting color palettes, stylish and sturdy fabrics, and antiques mixed with contemporary designs.
Whether the project is an urban town house, a seaside cottage, an ancestral residence, or a lakeside retreat, the approach of Sims Hilditch is always the same-a collaboration with clients to make stylish, comfortable homes that offer the perfect settings for everyday life. The book explores how the firm creates rooms where people live healthy and vibrant lives, aware of the changing seasons and embracing the comforts of a slower lifestyle-resulting in a holistic picture of design in the twenty-first century.”

How fun being slightly pickled by the pool. Letting your hair down on occasion is refreshing.😊
We had a lot of fun doing this one.
The two of you are a riot. We love ❤️ you also. Amazing 2 years congratulations
Thank you for the ego boost. 😃
Love when you two do a video together! Daniel is hilarious!
Thank you. I'll tell Daniel you enjoyed him.
OMGosh, I LOVE Daniel!!!
He's okay! 😃
@@thetartantopiary Hee, hee.
You and Daniel crack me up! I pretty much forget about the book when there’s a video of you two afterwards. Congratulations on two years of my favorite CZcams channel! I’m so glad I found you.
I'm glad you found us also! Thanks for the kind comment.
OH my goodness, Cheers to you and the TARTAN TOPIARY! We love you. The cocktail time by the pool was outstanding too!
I'm glad you enjoyed it. We did too!
Congrats on your channels second anniversary!! 🎉 Cocktail time was hilarious and very refreshing. You and Daniel have an enviable sense of humor. Cheers!!🥂
Thanks so much! We appreciate that!
You both are great together and I love it when you bring Daniel in for trying cakes or making cocktails! I think you should make this a permanent thing on your videos, the both of you are hilarious! Between Daniel not wearing pants, which could have turned into the wrong content, to running for raspberries and his breathing heavy, shaking the cocktail, wearing his fruit shirt, to the hawks that were supposedly monstrous! Don't leave him alone Mary he really may get fruit caught up his nose! Ha! ha! Mary, your calmness towards him and his antics is so good... I love it when you sink down into the floor of possible embarrassment! I appreciate all of the time you put into these videos and bringing us the beautiful design books you choose... I have gotten so many great ideas from just looking into your lovely home when you show us and your creativity, and then there's Daniel; who must bring much laughter and love to you every day. He is a gem! I'm subscribed and look forward to many more videos in the future, so excited! Thank you so much Mary, and Daniel too, and congratulations on two wonderful years of video so far! God Bless you both! :) :)
@julienelson4899 I'm subscribing to this "hit-the-nail-on-the-head" comment!
I'm always here for the books I must confess, but the unexpected hilarity that ensues when you two are mixing cocktails is so much fun! Looking forward (as always) to many more videos!
Congratulations on 2 inspiring years!
Thank you so much!
You are correct on all accounts. I do have to watch him, so he doesn't hurt himself. 😄 It can be an all consuming task!
I want to tell you … I totally enjoy your banter with your hubby
As well as your review of the books
Which I buy online just about every one of the books
Last June of 2023 I lost my hubby and I miss him terribly
Seeing you both together makes me smile and remember the fun times my hubby and I had together
Lovelovelove Daniel and his humor! Mary, you two are a great couple. Love all your reviews and have encouraged my friends to watch your channel. Cheers and bravo! ❤
I think Daniel already has sampled the goods. I'm not wearing pants either.... Just kidding. Love your videos.Happy #2.
I never know what will come out of his mouth. He does keep me on my toes.
@@thetartantopiary hahaha.
This was so funny. You guys are a hoot. Thank you for sharing 😂
I'm glad you enjoyed it! We did too.
You and Daniel are the perfect match. I truly enjoy watching you two together 😂😂😂
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it and I will let Daniel know also. 💗
You two are the new George Burns and Gracie Allen! This video was so much fun to watch! It’s a good thing you stopped at four recipes! Congratulations on your success!
That is quite the compliment. I loved Burns and Allen. "Say goodnight, Gracie". And, yes, I think 4 concoctions was our limit. I did manage to hold onto the Moscow Mule, but Daniel consumed the others.
You and Daniel are delighted. It is so good to see how much you enjoy each other’s company. Congratulations on the birthday of the Tartan Topiary.
You two are sooo fun to watch! Congratulations on 2 years, I love your channel!
Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Im sitting in my couch its warm and sunny oudsite and I start to feeling drunk a bit, looking ad you both😂
What a lovely moment you share with us.🥰
Congratulations with the second aniversary. 💐
I’ m thankfull to be a part of it. I was right in there with the 3 video you posted.
And Im still here, two years later, loving and appreciating every video you post.
Looking foward for much more years together. 🤩
It’s good to act silly and enjoy yourself once in a while.😊❤
Why only once in a while 😂🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@jenh9361 yea go for it 🤪
@@jenh9361 Yea go for it. 🤪
Daniel's middle name is silly!
Congratulations. Continued blessings and success
Thank you so much!
Well Mary, you obviously have good taste in men and Daniel got himself a prize when he landed you as his wife. I can just imagine what fun it would be to hang around with you two.
Happy anniversary. I've been subscribed for less than a year, but your channel has quickly become a favorite and I now look forward to Friday afternoons watching your latest video and leaving any stresses of the preceding week behind. Thanks so much!
You have become my Saturday morning ritual. Congratulations on 2 years!
I will gladly take that! Thank you!
As usual, I loved the video immensely! The drink tutorial was fabulous! BUT...the outtakes stole the show and generated several loud chortles and guffaws from me😁😁😁 Dare I say I loved Daniel's antics! The two of you are just so sweet together! Thank you, Mary!! - and Daniel😉 P.S. Thanks for creating a need for me to use "chortle" and "guffaw" together in a CZcams comment!!
Thank you for the sweet comment. I will be sure to let Daniel know you enjoyed his antics (as he does too)😄 I will have to say, you may hold the chortle/guffaw all in one comment record.
Congrats on Tartan Topiary's Second Anniversary! May there be so many more!!!
Happy Birthday Tartan Topiary!
I love your videos Mary! I look forward to to each of your book reviews and the bonus video segment of walks in gardens, travel, shopping, crafting and my new favorite ... cocktails by the pool with your honey! You are both adorable and had me in laughter tears at the end of the video! ❤
Thank you for sharing your books and parts of your life Mary. Keep up the great wotk!🤗
Thank you for the fun and laughter, I appreciate your channel very much😃
I'm so glad. Thanks for watching.
I have enjoyed all your videos over the last 2 years. It is always a treat to see Hubby. Thanks for all your hard work 😊
You two are refreshing as all of those cocktails put together and more. Wonderful show and whimsical couple. Laughed a lot! Thank you for being true and playful.
We both appreciate that. It is fun to let off a little steam once in a while! Thanks for watching and commenting.
OHMYGOODNESS!!!!!What fabulous fun !! You both are so fun and Daniel...no words!! ;)) A Riot !! Congratulations to you for your 2nd anniversary ! I used to receive your blog posts and thought I lost you, and gratefully found you here recently!! Cheers!
I'm glad you found us again! Please subscribe and you'll always be able to find us. 💗
Oh these drinks are taking affect at the end.....I'm watching this and loving it!
I love watching you and your husband. You two are a hoot. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for putting up with us!
Mary and Daniel celebrating by the pool …what a great way to celebrate the success of your awesome channel. Bless you both and the joy you bring to us through your efforts and the wonderful books I’ve learned about through you! Celebrating is necessary🎉🥰🥳❤️Thank you!
Thank you, that means a lot to me. We, as in most humans, really do need to take the time to celebrate life. Even in the smallest ways. This comment came at just the right time, as I just read a very long winded scolding by someone who didn't appreciate our "celebration". Thanks again!
This was a hoot! Loved it!! Thank you, both, and congratulations on reaching this milestone! Cheers! 🥂🍷🍹
Thank you. It has been a quick, but fun 2 years.
How fun! Enjoy your weekly videos…. Your sweet husband is wonderful!
Congratulations on two years AND for being comfortable with over the top silliness.🎉🎉🎉
You and Daniel are a new CZcams show- ready to happen!!!! And I'll be watching each one produced!!!! Congratulations on your Anniversary!!! Many more to come !!! I look forward to seeing each one. Keep up the great content, the fun, and the love you share for us to enjoy!!!!❤❤😊
I am so glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for the kind comment and the encouragement to continue!
OMGosh Daniel cracks me up. You guys are great!
2 years already. You know we all love the two of you and sharing your time with us. I hope you both felt ok after filming this one. Looking forward to the year to come.
I think Daniel consumed the majority of the spirits, although I did manage to hang on to the Moscow Mule! Thanks for watching and I appreciate your support from the beginning.
And here's to you Mary and Daniel for a delightful and fun clip. Loved the out-takes. ❤🎉
We are glad you enjoyed it. Thank you!
Lord have mercy .. Daniel is killing it with his facial expressions and looking for the hawks! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂Not to mention being a total clown ! I just love you both ❤
Clown, for sure! Thank you and I'll let Daniel know. 😃
Congratulations Mary I love you and Daniel! God bless you 💕❤️😘
We love you too Mary, and Daniel. Love the flat wheel comment BTW! Hilarious!
Congrats on two years! You two are hilarious and I thoroughly enjoy watching you. As much as you like cocktails, I keep thinking we might bump into you at some point in town. I really do like the book reviews too Mary. You do a great job.
Always look forward to your reviews. But especially your antics with your husband!! My favorite was the one you did about your flower shed that he took over. That was hilarious!!!❤❤❤❤❤
I like to refer to that video as the "I have an attorney" episode! 😄
Congratulations on two years, Mary! I look forward to your video each week. Thank you! 😊
Thank you so much! That really does mean a lot to me.
I loved this episode, esp. the cocktail mixing. I think you and Daniel were terrific. I usually don’t bother my husband with trying to show him anything on You Tube, he likes different stuff than I watch; but I had to show him the cocktail part. He loved it too. Thank you for giving me fun times on You Tube with you and Daniel. There is nothing clever on TV anymore. Congratulations on your second anniversary with your videos. Keep it up, please
Thank you, this comment makes me very happy. I am glad you and your husband both enjoyed the video. Daniel and I had fun making it.
This brought me joy. Congratulations on your anniversary.
I am so glad, and honestly, if I bring a little joy to someone that makes me very happy! 💗
Y’all are a stitch! I love you guys; so much fun mixing different cocktails by the pool. I always enjoy your channel. I look forward to your reviews every week.
Cheers!
I'm so glad! I appreciate your loyalty, and cheers in return!
I love you two together! So fun! And really appreciate your channel!
I'm so glad. Thanks for the kind words
This is great fun. My wife and I laughed out loud. Always enjoy your videos.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for letting me know.
Congrats on 2 wonderful years! Thanks for bringing us wonderful reviews of beautiful design books. You and Daniel are the icing on the cake. Now I need to make a Moscow mule! 😊
I really don't drink that often, but that Moscow Mule was delightful.
You , Daniel, and alcohol... this is going to be fun! But first I must say those amazing cypress trees behind you are breathtaking! Anything with coconut milk and rum and I'm there. When Daniel said it looked like the orange drink he used to get at the mall when he was young.. I immediately thought of Orange Julius! Was that it? Yes to two more years, and many more. I want summer videos, fall videos, and Christmas videos. I love the book reviews so much, but you and Daniel are what keep me coming back . Your love for each other and shared humor are absolutely delightful. What a blessing to go through life with each other.
Yes. the classic Orange Julius. I was more of a Baskin Robbins or Dairy Queen customer, but Daniel LOVED Orange Julius! Also, the trees are a favorite of mine also. They are "Emerald Arbor Vitae" and I love them. Thanks for watching and commenting!
What a wonderful afternoon 🥂 cheers you guys made my day. Happy 2 years 🎉here’s to many more !!
What an adorable couple ❤
Loved the review! But, your drinks by the pool were so much fun! I wish we were neighbors.
That is a very nice comment- thank you!
Congratulations on 2 years!
You guys are delightful. I enjoy all your episodes.
I appreciate that!
I just LOVE seeing your husband on this show…..he is getting more handsome because he is so sweet to you…true love….love the way he laughs…hugs carolyn from Columbus GA…now why did you hit that precious man….you got him drunk….toooo funny
Great video and cheers to two more years and many more to follow!
How fun are you two! When I have a little too much wine, I tell my husband, "Oh Howard, I just have a little glow." Our favorite quote from Happy Days TV Show. 😂 Enjoyed the book review too. Happy two years 🎉
Love you two!! The best couple - wish you were my neighbor!! Loved the video.🍾♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for that. We love you back!
I wish I could push the thumbs up button 1000 times! You guys remind me of Laurel and Hardy. But 10 times better. Daniel takes the cake. I was just waiting for him to run around the yard and take a dive in the pool lol I love you guys. You’re such a great entertainment for a relaxing evening. Congratulations on two years on CZcams.
You're the best! I appreciate that and wish you could push the thumbs up button 1000 times also! 😄
The Olympics of day drinking! 😂😂😂😂. You two are so cute!
Daniel gets the gold medal! 🥇
As I commented the first time you and Daniel prepared cocktails a number of months ago, from the WS cards, you two are hysterical and should do these drinks as a series. You two make me laugh so hard I am crying laughing. So, tears from humor, so, so funny. PS - Mary, I love your book reviews and have purchased probably most of, close to all you have reviewed. So many great books. Thank you for your fabulous and funny, channel.
Congratulations on your 2 years!! You and Daniel are just too cute, and you both complement one another so well. It was a lovely day for pool side entertainment. Another great stellar book review! Happy Friday and enjoy your weekend...you already have a good head start. :0) xoxo to you both ~ Your Alabama friend
I grew up in Alabama 🎉🎉🎉
@@jenh9361 What part? We are in Fairhope...
Thank you for always watching and commenting. I know I've said it before, but I appreciate it... and you!
You two are delightful. I really love your channel. Thank you so much for sharing your passion, your home, and your life.
I appreciate that more than you know. Thank you!
Loved the book but you two made me giggle! What a great way to sample new drink recipes with a twinkle in your eyes. The two year celebration was fun! Look forward to two more years!
We are glad to share a giggle between friends! Thanks for watching!
Oh my gosh! You two are a hoot and made me literally Laugh Out Loud! Congrats on the two year anniversary any many more!
HI Mary !! Oh my goodness you two are a hoot !! Thanks for the giggles and the fun by the pool ! I just love you like a dear friend !! Have a super weekend ! Paula p.s.the book was lovely
Paula- you are always so kind and I appreciate your comments. So, you are a dear friend! You have a great weekend as well!
🥂 to Mary , Daniel and The Tartan Topiary. May the good times continue for many many years to come!❤🍸🍸😅
That is very nice. Thank you! 🥂
You and Daniel so funny! I was Laughing ! You guys crack me up!!!!!
I'm so glad!
Congratulations to a beautiful fun creative informative channel!cheers!🥂🍾
I appreciate that!
Congrats on two years! You're so much fun - maybe you should do a bonus video on your tips for hosting parties.
You may have an idea! The only thing about hosting is- I limit myself to 1 mixed beverage.
@@thetartantopiary Very wise! But even so, I'm sure I could learn a lot from you about planning and hosting gatherings - I just have a feeling that visitors to your home have a wonderful time. So if you ever decide to share any tips, I'll be elated!
You 2 are the goods! Loved it
Thanks so much for two glorious years! I've learned so much, and had a lot of fun along the way, tonight being a perfect example. I confess to toasting with a rather pedestrian gin-and-tonic, had I known it was to be a festive occasion, I'd have made myself a martini, gently shaken, with one of my signature spiral lemon twists. I, too, think of you as family, you've comforted me, and bolstered my spirits more than I dare relate. All the best to you, and Daniel, and all whom you love.
What a lovely comment. Now, I'm finding I want one of your gently shaken martinis! As you can tell, there is no gentle shaking when Daniel is at the bar! All the best in return, and have a lovely weekend!
Enjoyed you and Daniel making mix drinks. Congratulations on two years continued success.
,
Halarious.
I appreciate that. Thanks for joining us!
Thank you both for another drinks lesson which is fantastic. I needed a good laugh today! Congratulations on your two years. I enjoy the book segment and all the other content you make which has gotten better and better over time. Keep up the hard work and I’ll keep watching and looking forward to the next episode.
Happy Birthday 🎉 you really are the dynamic duo especially when you make cocktails together - such great fun, much love from Napier New Zealand ❤❤❤
I'm glad we found our way to you (half a world away). I wish we were having your weather. The day we made this video it was 92 degrees F (31 C). 💗
We think of yall as family!! And you must stay on more than 2 more years!!
I love the book. Yall were hilarious by the pool 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
You guys are so funny, my hubby & I watch, and it’s like we’re at a party with you 🎉😊
Great video ! Buying the book too!
More cocktail videos pleaseeee!
Made me laugh after a week through the wringer. Than you.
🎉❤
This has been a tough week for me also. Thursday was the longest day of the year. We'll blame it on that!
The book was beautiful and you and Daniel are delightful! Happy 2nd anniversary🍹🍹
This was a great book. I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
You 2
are a hoot !! Enjoy all your videos. !! Happy 2nd Anniversary !

I'm so glad you enjoy it. That makes me happy!
Congratulations on 2 years. Hope you continue. Love your channel. I also collect decorating books. Well, i collect all books.
I don't consider myself a bibliophile, but I do LOVE books too! Thanks for watching.
I could listen to your delightful accent all day. I love how you became gigglier as time went on….loved it.
That is a very kind thing to say! Some people do not feel the same about my accent as you do. But- we can all build a bridge and get over it! 😄Yes, I realized things seemed to be getting progressively funnier...
Happy 2nd Year Tartan Topiary! We love love love you. Y'all are so much fun. I will be Celebrating here in The Golden Isles of Georgia with you today!!! Wishing you a great new year ahead.
We almost went to Savannah this weekend, but plans changed. You are in a beautiful place! Thanks for watching.
@@thetartantopiary I will be driving up there later this week. Would love to meet up sometime. YVW, I always look forward to the BEST vlog on YT on Friday's! You do an incredible job of producing and sourcing. You and Daniel are so much fun!!
Mary & Daniel, Happy anniversary to the Tartan Topiary! 🎉 I have looked forward to every review in addition to your “personal slice of your life” videos. It has been a fun two years! I am going to try the Moscow mule ! 😂
Thank you, I'm tickled you have enjoyed the past 2 years! As far as the Moscow Mule, I think that's my new favorite.
I deserve myself one, I work hard this entire week, tonight I’m making myself a drink! 🍹 thank you for the inspiration! Congratulations 🎊 and cheers ! 🥂
You are very welcome. It was a week full of work for me also! I'm glad to take a moment and just sit! I hope you have a relaxing weekend.
Hello Mary and Dan! Happy 2nd Anniversary!! OMG!!! I could watch you two all day!!! First.....I just loved the book review as I love this style English decor. Now......This was so much fun! That Daniel!!! Mary, you have my prayers!!! LOL!!! I just wanted to sample some of the drinks along with you! They all sounded so delish!! I must try these recipes! But really....how do you keep up with Daniel! What a hoot! I love it!~ LOL!! Have a wonderful week and I will see you in the next one! Hugs to both of you! :)
Linda- it is a tough job keeping up with him! I have learned to tie a knot at the end of the rope and just hold on for dear life! 😄 Hugs in return, as always!
Happy second anniversary to The Tartan Topiary! Cheers!
Thank you very much!
I wish you many happy years of your channel and with your cheerful funny hubby!
Congratulations on 2 years and many more! Hilarious drink tasting…very entertaining.
Happy anniversary! Thanks for such a fun time by the pool. I look forward to your weekly reviews and am excited for more “Tartan Topiaries” to come!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for letting me know, and for the kind encouragement.
Hi Mary! Love the book review as usual ❤ Happy 2nd Anniversary on Utube and the cocktails with you and Daniel. So much fun!!!🎉
I appreciate you letting me know, thank you!
I love this channel. I like the Feverfew Ginger beer in my Moscow Mules. Makers choice! Lol.
I will look for that. Thanks for the tip.
Such a fun video having cocktails with you by the pool! 🍸You two are a great couple. Thank you for all your lovely videos. It’s so pleasurable watching your channel. Congratulations on two years!🎉
Thank you so much. Daniel and I both appreciate that!
You two are too funny , would love to have cocktails with you . I poured myself a glass of wine as I always do when I know you have new book review and I tell the hubby to go away Mary is on , 😆.
You are making me laugh. I love that. Thanks for making time for me. I appreciate it more than you know!
Congratulations on two years! I always look forward to Fridays and Tartan Topiary! You have influenced me in so many ways. Thank you!
Thank you, I hope my influence has been positive. I try to keep the content elevated...most of the time! 😄
I guess a nap is called for after the taste test😂. You both are great and happy anniversary TTT
Afterwards, Daniel immediately went to the lounge chair to "rest his eyes".
