When was the last time you gave your kitchen a makeover? One of the best things that you can do for your house is decorate or renovate room by room if you can as it stops you feeling like your whole house is a building site. A good kitchen makes a house a home, and with the right planning and accessories, you can ensure that your kitchen stands out for all the right reasons.
Knowing your budget is the first place to start when it comes to trying to save any money. You need to know how much money you *can* save first. Simply jot down all your incomings and then take away all of your definite bills and you’ve got your disposable income that you can save, spend and invest.
Planning the perfect boho wedding is easier than you might think. A boho wedding is all about being natural and effortless, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t require any planning.
For decor, focus on flowers and candles to make the venue feel whimsical and cosy. An outdoor wedding with a stunning natural background will do most of the work for you, while a greenhouse or barn conversion retains the outdoorsy vibes without actually being outdoors.
Dressing for a wintery wedding can be really tricky. I’ve got one coming up and I’m battling with some ideas of what to wear so I thought I’d share some of my favourite pieces on the high street at the moment.
First up is this River Island High Neck 70s Midi which is amazing – look at these 70s colours! I think it’s perfect for a wintery wedding because of the long sleeves the length. You could even layer a thin top or a body underneath for extra warmth if you’re worried about not being cosy enough throughout the day – especially if it’s a church wedding, these can get chilly. Or, if you’re outside for a lot of photos and you don’t want to be bundled up in your coat all day, a long sleeved dress is a great shout to keep you warm as you can hide a little layer underneath without ruining your outfit.
If you aren’t typically the type of person that blows a budget, wedding budgeting and planning can be pretty tricky – and feel super expensive. Unsurprisingly there are many places that you can save on the cost of a wedding; even the dress doesn’t have to be expensive. Check out my high street wedding dress finds from a few years ago, there’ll be plenty of similar on the high street again this season.
Renovating a home is a big project. It can be an overwhelming process, especially if you are unfamiliar with all the different trades and materials involved in any given renovation job. For that reason, it’s essential to know what you can change when undertaking a renovation project. Here are some of the important items that most people think about when renovating their home, from flooring installation to kitchen design choices.
Autumn doesn’t officially arrive for a couple of days but I’m definitely feeling the crunchy leaves and pumpkin spice latte vibes coming. I always love an autumnal walk paired with Sunday pub lunches including cosy pints and sticky toffee pudding and cuddling up in knitwear. I’ve got a few ideas for lovely autumnal dates now that we’re able to get out and about, travelling the UK at least – let me know what you think in the comments.
Gift buying can often be tricky. Whether you are buying for a significant other, family member or friend, it can be tricky to find a present that they not only love but is also meaningful.
Finding and giving a gift should be an enjoyable process. Giving someone a gift is an opportunity to surprise someone with something that hopefully they will keep for a lifetime.
Stats show that the average Brit will spend about £36,205 on redecorating and organising homes they own. According to express.co.uk, this will happen about 36 times in the average lifespan of Britons. Indeed, people redecorate their homes for loads of reasons, but the usual ones are listed below. If you’ve got plans to give your house an upgrade but aren’t sure why it’s necessary, hopefully, a few of these reasons will show you why it’s totally always OK to redecorate.
A hotel review? What is this, 2019? I know. Travels are back. Mini breaks are back. Hotel reviews are back and I’m so here for it. Recently we headed away for a trip for L’s birthday and as part of his gift I booked us a room at the Hart Shoreditch Hotel. We usually stay around Shoreditch area as we like the vibe, know our way around *roughly* and there were some restaurants that we wanted to try out in the local area.
