YOU ARE NOT MY MOTHER is now available on Netflix π§ !!
Iβm very late to the party on sharing this, art directing this during lockdown with production designer @laurenkellydesigner - made this a job fullaaa challenges, having sourced all of our props and dressing from peoples houses and favours upon favours, itβs been such a joy seeing it on screen, with every detail and hour spent bringing @caatdolan + Laurenβs ideas to life shine through.
Couldnβt have done it without props queen @katiesmd
A huge congratulations to all the cast, with love to @carolyn_bracken_actor, @hazel.doupe, @jordannejjones.
All the love to makeup queens @madonnabambino and @roisin.condon for keeping us alive and well with tarot readings and smiles always and to big bros @drewmaitland, @oisin_fleming , @_dngrdn_ and @karlwalsh for watching over us
Mwah mwah mwah enough talkin go watch it x
Laughing at my mum for these sun emojis for our new little home. All I see: π
I wasnβt going to post about this as there is so many changes happening to everyone right now, good and bad that it felt wrong to be excited for a new step for me and my mum, I donβt like sharing things as much as I did before without feeling guilty or overwhelmed, but Iβm in awe of how far weβve come.
When we first moved into Shankill, number 24, it was for our families safety, we had left my dad and we needed a new home. This was our base for so much, finishing school, Hugh finishing college, learning to drive, pets, friends finding a home within our home, housemates bringing life and new voices to the house, music videos being made, creating, destroying, endless takeaways and morning afters, grieving, loving, crying.
So many ups and downs.
This house was a shell of uncomfortable growth, but that then began to flourish, it never felt quiet like a home but after 5 years it has kept us safe and warm and we are now leaving it behind, moving only up the road, but to a home. Watching my mum choose patterns and colours and learning so much about her and seeing her in a light of pure joy has been a huge privilege and insight on life, growth and determination.
Life will change and this may not be our home forever but we made it this far.
To every single person who helped us make number 24 a home, thank you, all the bums on seats, music and chatter this house has consumed, I wouldnβt have wished it any other way. A lot of love to friends, and time for getting us this far.
