Northern Nights guests on bedding for all seasons...

Spring seems to have finally sprung, but the weather is still changing its mind...one day it's warm and sunny and the next it's back to cold and rainy! It's difficult to know how to dress your bed when the weather is so changeable. We caught up with expert Northern Nights guest Susie Adams to chat about how to cope with this inbetween, transseasonal weather...

Guest Gill Gaunlet's top tips to create an outdoor haven

Hi all, Gill here!

I think that spring may be here at last, thank goodness. Whether you have patch of grass or a well manicured lawn, we all like to picnic outdoors.

All the better on a sunny day when there is not a cloud in the sky, just sitting in our own garden , enjoying the moment, relaxing and admiring our surroundings... ahhh bliss.

Outdoor entertaining has now reached new and dizzy heights. I for one love using my small but neat garden as another room.

Go behind the scenes at N.Home with designer Ron!

Sneak a peek into the colourful world of N.Home! We caught up with founder and designer Ron Norsworthy to find out exactly what goes on behind the scenes at this fabulous brand. Plus, he gives us an exclusive insight into his packed daily routine. Here is what Ron had to say...

I think that the best thing about designing the bedding for my N.Home line is that no two days are the same. As a creative person it's wonderful to see how my designs evolve from concepts and inspirations to actual products in the marketplace.

We speak to TV icon Sweep and toymaker Steiff

We love our teddy bears here at QVC, so to celebrate the launch of the new Sweep bear from Steiff, we spoke to the toymakers to find out a litte more. We also managed to get a few words with the infamous Sweep himself!

What makes Steiff different from other toy companies?

Steiff were the first and therefore oldest, soft toy company in the world! Founded in 1880, Steiff invented both the soft toy and the teddy bear! What a different place the world would be without either. Still based in Giengen, southern Germany, we remain in the original buildings where the first teddy bears were made over 100 years ago.

Simon Biagi chats to Julia Roberts about her debut book

So for the first time in QVC history, presenter Julia Roberts appeared on the Morning Show this week not to present it but to be interviewed as a guest!

Yes, if you haven't heard already the reason for the interview was to talk about her brand new book 'One Hundred Lengths of the Pool'. It's a collection of stories about her life and she has some stories to share! She's been revealing a few of them in her presenter blog over the last few weeks and you can order the book online as well.

If you missed her on the Morning Show this week, she'll be back in as a guest for our Anything Goes show this Saturday (along with Mr John Barrowman!) and you can watch her interview with Simon below...

Celebrate Mother's Day with Peony!

We hope you are enjoying our fantastic Peony Today's Special Value offer. Not only is this beautiful bouquet the perfect spring perk-up for your home, but it is also the ideal Mother's Day or Easter gift! We caught up with Julie Bates, our Peony QVC guest, to find out more about the TSV and why she thinks it's the perfect gift...

Could you tell us how you would style today's Peony bouquet TSV in your home?

The bouquet consists of tall gladioli in the palest pink, long elegant roses, lemon tulips and white very pretty lilac. This bouquet looks just perfect arranged in the Peony goblet vase or any other tall vase to give the full spectacular array of spring flowers. They would look fresh as though they had come from a top florists in time for Mothering Sunday.

Imagine them in your sitting room, standing tall and the focal point of your home on a side table or sitting dramatically on your dinning table. They could also sit in a window, any passers by will admire them and envy their beauty. They could sit in the entrance hall on a table and be the first thing you see each time you go through your front door.
