Easy Autumn Bedroom Updates with MADE and CollectPlus
Despite one freaky day last weekend where temperatures inexplicably hovered in the 20s and then dropped 10 degrees the following day, I feel fairly confident that it's officially Autumn here in the UK. My back garden is full of leaves, the sun is setting earlier in...
Jungle Glam: The Reveal of our Master Bedroom Makeover
I can't even begin to express how excited I am to be FINALLY sharing a room reveal on my blog. And not just a quickie paint job but an honest-to-goodness makeover. It's the first one I've done in far too long and while I've been working with what we have and the...
How I’m Phasing the Bedroom Makeover!
So as you probably know, we've recently had some electrical work done where the living room, master bedroom and both hallways were rewired. It's messy work but it's one of those things that is always better to get out of the way before you do any decorating and once...
How I’ve Styled My Blush Pink Master Bedroom (for now)
As you are probably aware by now, we moved into our home just over 3 weeks ago. It doesn't seem that long, really, seeing as I have only just cleared the last of the boxes (well, mostly - we still have lighting to go but I'm not unpacking that just yet for reasons...
Oh What’s This: A Brand New Source for Eclectic Boho Glam Homewares
In my last post, I talked about simple things that give your home a little lift in the winter months. And let me tell you, I've really needed it. The last couple weeks have been a struggle for me - the weather has been typical for the time of year - grey and rainy,...
11th Hour Updates: Bedroom Flooring Reveal!
Our house went on the market officially on Thursday. It's been a bit of a crazy few weeks with lots of trips to the skip (that's the dump for my American readers) and charity shops as well as giving away items to friends and family - turns out living in a house for 7...
11th Hour Upgrades: Finishing the Flooring in the Master Bedroom!
After 7 years of living here, we are looking to put the house on the market in the next couple of weeks. At this point, what we really should just be doing is giving the house a thorough cleaning and perhaps purging a few of our items. What we are REALLY doing is a...
Summer Updates in the Bedroom
It's been a while since I shared my bedroom and as I'd made some little changes here and there to it over the last few months I figured I'd share it with you today. You may remember back in November where I gave the whole space a bit of a boho refresh and I loved it...
How to Get the Luxury Hotel Look at Home
I had the chance recently to stay at the Ham Yard Hotel in Soho for my birthday. The rooms are luxuriously appointed, designed by Kit Kemp, and I must say, although we only stayed one night, it was a little slice of heaven. There's just something about the way luxury...
Bedroom Reveal: How to Transition a Room from Summer to Winter!
As you know, I thrive on change in my home. It makes a space feel energised and new without even having to pick up and move. I also realised recently that I have started using colour in my home with a little more restraint. So with Autumn here and Winter hot on its...
Affordable Art: Desenio Art Prints
Choosing art for your home can be a bit of a minefield, especially if you don't have a huge budget to spend on original pieces. Of course, as someone who is passionate about interior design, I'll tell you to buy what you love and if you can support an artist in the...
Bedroom Refresh: Textural Neutral Moodboard
As I spoke about last week, I've decided to give the bedroom a bit of a seasonal switch up for the Autumn/Winter season. I want to get this completed pretty quickly and so it's merely a matter of swapping out the really colourful items with soft, textural neutrals...
Bedroom Refresh: Calming the Colour!
It's weird how tastes change. Even going back just a few years, my living room was a cacophony of various colours - pinks, yellows, blues, turquoise. And at the time, I really did love it. It made me very happy to have such a bright and joyful space. Then, something...
How to Get a Good Night’s Sleep in Summer
I've spoken previously about my problems with getting a good night's sleep. I am an extremely light sleeper and I have a sleep disorder and so anything and everything will keep me awake. You can read more about that here and what I've done design-wise to assist me...
Blogger Stylin’ Home Tour Summer 2016
Happy Summer lovely peeps! And I can actually say that because after what proved to be a rather damp and cold summer of 2015 which was followed by a rather damp and cold autumn and and a rather damp cold winter here in the North West of the UK (sensing a pattern?), it...
