One of those days where your step count goes through the roof and you somehow manage to talk for eight hours straight... 😅

We're at Glee Birmingham! It's so good to see our clients SEEDBALL🐝 and elho, along with many familiar and new faces.

It's always one of the biggest dates in our calendar, but more than anything it's a really good excuse to get out from behind our screens and catch up with the brilliant people we spend most of the year emailing, calling and Teams-ing.

We're back again this Thursday (and we're already excited about Hillier Garden Centres doing a keynote speaker slot on the day), so if you spot us wandering the halls, come and say hello 👋

What are we all going to be talking about in 2027?

That’s the question we’ve been asking ourselves over the past few weeks. And now it’s time for us to ask you! What do you think will be the next big names, themes, colours, shapes and designs coming to the forefront in 2027?

Our annual Trends Report is currently taking shape and we're interested in hearing your take on what we'll all be talking about next year, in the home, interiors and garden world.

Just drop us a DM to give us your take! We'd love to hear from you, and who knows... you might even be featured 👀

September always feels a little bit like the second January.

Everyone’s back from holidays, diaries suddenly look very full again and there’s that definite sense of right... time to get on with it.

And we’ve got a busy one ahead.

There are events to attend, articles to write, client campaigns and our annual Trends Report to set free into the world. While it might feel like 2027 might be knocking on the door, we’ve still got so many exciting things lined up for the final quarter of 2026!

Here we go, September 👋

Calling all green-fingered ghosts and ghouls - we’ve got a frightfully good opportunity for you! 👻

We’re on the hunt for 12 content creators to take part in a spook-tacular seasonal campaign with our client, Hillier Garden Centres.

The challenge?

Design the ultimate Halloween planter! 🎃🌿

Each content creator will receive a £50 Hillier Gift Card to help them conjure up something boo-tiful. Think bold autumnal colour, dramatic foliage, and plenty of personality – we want to see what Halloween looks like in your garden.

In exchange, all we’re after is one piece of grid content (still image or reel – it’s up to you!).

And we’ve got another treat for you!

Each creator will also receive two tickets to a Hillier Christmas event to give away to your followers. Choose from Breakfast with Santa or a Wreath Making Workshop and help get your followers in the mood for the most wonderful time of the year.

Drop us a note by 31st August if you’d like to get involved!

It's World Mosquito Day... and yes, that's apparently a thing. 🦟

While mosquitoes might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of the UK, they're becoming an increasingly common talking point during the summer months.

It's been great to help our client Thermacell share expert advice and educate consumers about how they can enjoy more time outdoors without bites getting in the way.

It's an excellent example of how the right story, at the right time, can put a brand at the heart of a national conversation.

It might still feel like summer outside, but journalists are already planning autumn content 🍂

From lawn renovation and autumn planting to cosy interiors and preparing gardens for winter, the next seasonal stories are already taking shape.

If you're looking for expert comment, product recommendations or seasonal features, we'd love to help.

One thing we're seeing more of...

Journalists aren't just looking for products. They're looking for expertise.

The brands getting the best coverage right now are the ones helping readers solve problems, not simply promoting what they sell. It's a small shift, but it makes a huge difference.

Today's office(s) 📍

One of the best things about being a remote team is that no two days look the same.

Today we've been working from kitchen tables, shared workspaces, garden offices and cafés (with a few very good lunches thrown in too).

We might not share an office most days, but we're in constant conversation throughout the day, working together to support our clients.

July flew by 🌿

One minute we were talking about summer gardening, the next we were looking ahead to autumn features.

Here's just some of the brilliant coverage we secured for our clients over the past month across homes, gardens and lifestyle media. Every piece starts with a story, and we're proud to help tell them.

Six years of Fay 💚

Today we're celebrating six years since Fay joined Honest Communications.

If you've worked with Fay, you'll know exactly why we're so grateful to have her on the team. She's brilliant with clients, loved by journalists and somehow always manages to stay calm.

Outside work, she's usually out in the woods with her little one, baking, or out in the garden – which probably explains why she's the font of all knowledge in our office when it comes to plants!

Thanks for everything you do, Fay. Happy Honest-iversary! 🌿
