Moving house is such an exciting time, it’s been super exciting for us recently and we love our new home. One of the best bits of buying a new house is putting your stamp on it and transforming it into your home. You only need to flick through an interior design magazine or have a peek at Instagram to find millions of home decorating ideas.
2. Added security
For young couples or professionals with tech-savvy tendencies, adding some smart-home security could really boost the covet-ability of your property. Things like throwing in a camera-based doorbell and a home alarm system might attract future tenants and let them know that you really care about their safety and the security of the house. Of course, you also need to have buildings landlord insurance but your tenants would need to organise their own contents insurance for any issues such as burglary. Fingers crossed with an alarm as a deterrent and sensible tenants, nothing like this will ever happen!
3. Fixtures and fittings
By boosting your interiors with gorgeous decor and great fixtures and fittings can really add some value to the rental price of your property. If there is absolutely nothing for your tenants to do except throw some blankets over the bed and some cushions on the sofa this is going to really work in your favour.
Clean, modern and easy to use kitchen and bathroom appliances are a big plus point too, we know they were with ours when we initially rented an apartment! Inbuilt appliances such as microwaves, dishwashers, washing machines and heated towel rails are all huge boosts for young professionals’ ease of living.
Many people have had to cancel or postpone weddings in 2020. COVID-19 made it impossible to have large gatherings like this, leaving countless couples without the chance to tie the knot, like many of our friends sadly. As lockdown life and restrictions ease, though, we’re finally getting the opportunity to start planning again. Of course, though, organising an event like this in the wake of COVID-19 is going to take some extra care, let’s see what we might have to do!
Here’s a little style of blog post I haven’t done in a while! A review of somewhere that I’ve been a paying customer in, multiple times, since we moved to Hucknall, Nottingham. We’ve lived here less than two weeks and I think we’ve been to The Station maybe four times?
This is our new local and we absolutely love it. Real ales, craft beers and amazing food. I just wanted to give it a little shout out if you’re around the area and you fancied a snack, a pint or an awesome home cooked pub lunch.
If you want to make your high street clothes look more expensive, you can! With a few simple changes you can make a huge difference.
1. Try tailoring
The main reason expensive clothes look more expensive is the tailoring. Sometimes the only thing that you need to do to high street items is to have them tailored. If you want to make a huge change to your clothes, try and make sure that you take them to a professional as opposed to doing it yourself!
There are several ways to adopt the “I fall for fall” trend, without turning the wedding into a themed party! Excellent autumn ingredients such as hot coffee, cocoa, cinnamon or apple are incorporated in the most original cocktails, deliciously upgrade the mulled wine and create the most delicious autumn tarts! At the same time, the same materials are combined with dried leaves, alfalfa and coffee beans, creating the most autumnal atmosphere!

Another Money Diary for you team. A post pay-day one because I find I actually spend *some* money when I’ve been paid as I’ve either been waiting to buy something and I’ll always have savings bits and bobs to move around. Enjoy! Let me know if you like a regular money diary?
As a reminder/info if you’re not a regular Money Diary reader, I have ‘house money’ which is basically our joint account for groceries etc and then anything not labelled with that is my ‘disposable income’.

As much as I’m a lover of a takeaway, pizza and a brownie I do love my healthy snacks too and I like to think I’m pretty balanced most of the time. I’m always on the look out for a new taste, a new snack and something to mix up my routine because I do get a bit bored of eating the same thing all the time. So when Erbology contacted me to see if I wanted to try some of their snacks I of course said yes!
