So first off, thank you so much for all the positive comments I received on my little bathroom refresh! I'm so happy so many of you seemed to love it (and if you haven't seen it yet, you can catch up here). I had a comment about it on Instagram from someone basically...
The Reveal of our Peach and Gold Bathroom Refresh (Phase 2)
Hey it's my first reveal of the new year! Whoop! And while I keep adding to the list of things I want to do this year (currently deciding between the utility room/bathroom downstairs and my office), I knew I could squeeze in a small update to the bathroom over the...
Plans for the Bathroom Refresh (Phase 2)
You might recall when we moved into our home (nearly 2 years ago now - how fast does time fly?!), within weeks of moving in, I decided to update our bathroom. I knew a bit of paint and some accessorising would make a big difference to the space without having to spend...
My Boho Glam Black Bathroom Budget Refresh
I didn't know whether to call this post a 'before and after' or a 'refresh' or a 'makeover' because in my head, they are all slightly different things. I'm not sure I've really done enough to warrant a 'before and after' but I'd say it was more than just a refresh....
Where my John Lewis Haul Ended Up!
So if you checked out my post on Monday, I created a little video sharing some of the very excellent finds at John Lewis when I did a bit of impulse shopping. In that video, I also promised I would share with you where all those little bits and bobs ended up in my...
My Bathroom is in Your Home Magazine!
I know this sounds like a bizarre goal but once your home ends up in a magazine, you start getting a little greedy and wanting to be in more. I know, I know, I should just be happy with the fact it was in 25 Beautiful Homes and Red Magazine (and trust me, I am - I'm...

First off, I'm overwhelmed by the response on the bathroom remodel! Yay!! I'm so glad you liked it and weren't all, 'Oh my god, we waited all this time for THIS?!" ;) If you missed that post where I finally shared the bathroom after *mumble mumble* months of work, you...
Operation Bathroom Remodel: THE REVEAL!!
Well, crazy as it may seem and after months and months (and months and months ad nauseam) of beavering away slowly on this room, the bathroom is finally completed. Why did it take us so long? Oh there are loads of reasons but I won't bore you with them. It boils down...
Operation Bathroom Remodel: Some sneaky peeks
We are so close with finishing the bathroom. Honestly, I know you are probably all sick of me saying that. It just seems that every single little job takes far longer than it should do and so the pace feels glacial - actually, no it IS glacial.If you are just catching...
Operation Bathroom Remodel: Choosing Art (maybe NSFW)
If there was one thing I knew that I wanted in my bathroom remodel, no matter how tiny it may be, is some cool art.I wanted something funky and different. I was already going neutrals in here and I didn't actually want to add any real splash of colour (which may seem...
Operation Bathroom Remodel Update and Risk-taking Bathrooms
Wayne and I decided to take this week off work to make some progress on the bathroom. Yes, Operation Bathroom Remodel is STILL happening but in incredibly good news, we're finally done with cutting tiles!*fake sobs like Miss Universe winning her crown*Ahhh yes, those...
Operation Bathroom Remodel: A much-requested update!
I've had so many people ask me what's going on with the bathroom that I've become racked with guilt that this project isn't finished yet. And so to appease my guilt, I figured I owed you at the very least, a little bit of an update!One of the main reasons I haven't...
Operation Bathroom Remodel: Hex Tile Gratification
This post is going to make it look as though we got loads done on our bathroom but the reality is, that tiling is a pretty instant-gratification type process.To think about all the work that went on in the past 6 weeks with the ceiling, the plumbing and the wall...
Operation Bathroom Remodel: Tiles, a working sink and going a little bit crazy…
I'll just apologise now firstly for my lack of post yesterday and also for the fact that I haven't had the time to visit all those blogs on my reader this week. It's been a bit of a madhouse around here as the bathroom remodel progresses, albeit slowly.Can I...
Operation Bathroom Remodel: The week that was…
Long ago, in my little naive brain, I actually thought that by this time, the bathroom would be just about done - ok, maybe a few bits and pieces would remain but with Wayne having the entire week off work to make some great progress, what could possibly go wrong?...
Operation Bathroom Remodel: Bare Walls and More Mess

Operation Bathroom Remodel: It’s all in the details… and also? Plastering.
While Wayne was busying plastering the ceiling this weekend (more on that below), I decided that I'd share one of my very favourite parts of home improvement - accessorising. It's the details that make the difference, kids. And over the last couple of weeks, my...
Operation Bathroom Remodel: It’s Gotta Get Worse Before It Gets Better
I practically had a nervous breakdown this weekend. Ok, maybe that's an exaggeration but I felt like a bag of nerves, like anything would set me off in tears. I may sound completely OTT (it does to me as I write it) and while I know we are lucky to have a...
Operation Bathroom Remodel: Ripping Down the False Ceiling
So Wayne wanted to get started on the bathroom remodel as soon as possible and I wasn't about to argue, so this weekend, the ceiling came down. We knew the horrible swirly artex was hiding something above it but until you actually rip stuff off, you have no idea what...
