3 Quick Kitchen Revamping Ideas

Upgrading and renovating your home is always a pricey thing to think about but you can make small changes every now and again when you can afford it, and they all add up to result in a gorgeous home that’s full of your own personality. Here are 3 tips to help you upgrade your kitchen for less. 1. Add Plants
This is my favourite tip for almost any room in a home that needs a little update! Adding faux or fresh plants and flowers really lift any room. And, as a bonus, you can get creative with your plant pots. By adding some materials like copper and silver-coloured plant pots you can really add some Scandi-cool vibes to your kitchen. I love cacti, succulents, and spider plants! 2. Fresh Utensils & Appliances Scour homeware websites and supermarkets for discounted and sale home appliances or just invest in a fresh toaster and kettle set and you’ll be surprised what £100 worth of new gadgets can do to a kitchen. Forget about that expensive renovation and just focus on small additions and remember to keep them clean. Everything looks better after a good clean, too! Plus, if you’ve got some manky wooden spoons and a melted spatula sitting in a jar next to your stove then it’s bound to look a bit naff, pick some new new spoons for a couple of pounds next time you’re in a homeware store and your whole kitchen will be instantly lifted! 3. Upgrade Your Metallics  Something small that can really lift a kitchen is the addition of some new metallic elements as they’re super shiny and will make your entire kitchen look like new! The easiest way to do this is to upgrade your cupboard handles if they’re metal and also your kitchen taps! You can pick up some new taps for between £100-175 from an online store such as Superbath who stock affordable and quality brands like Grohe. For a couple of weeks saving (and a few lew cocktails on a Friday night), you could have a super swish new kitchen taps and a fresh looking sink! Once you’ve scrubbed up your sink with some metal cleaner and added some sparkle, it’ll be as good as new. Obviously, if you know a kitchen fitter or a plumber that will do you some mates rates on the fitting that would save you, even more, pennies!

Mini Bathroom Overhaul With H&M!

With H&M’s current 20% off (student discount, yeah!) currently on I popped in for a browse at lunchtime the other day and had to venture into the home section. I picked up three of these little black metal baskets to store skincare and shower products in my under the sink bathroom cupboard. Now this isn’t a cupboard that anyone sees into apart from us but I just thought it would be nice for it to be a bit more organised. Plus, they look really cute AND it’s going to be so much easier to just pull these out to clean the cupboard instead of every single product. How old do I sound? Read More

Interiors: Spring Cushion Wishlist

Spring time is all about lighter colours, new textures and cute animal faces apparently! I’ve scoured some of the best high street home ware retailers for some fresh new soft furnishings. I’m loving the Baines & Fricker pastel cushion covers, they remind me of the tea-towels you used to draw your face on in primary school, really cute. I also really love the shiny texture of the metallic cushions next to some super fluffy fuzz from the Yorkshire Linen Co, they make a really cool contrast. What do you think of my spring cushion wish list? Check out the rest with the links below! How cute is the French Bulldog? cushions Read More

My First Attempt at Shelf Styling

Here’s a little interiors update with my first shelf styling attempt in our living room! Our house is a mix of modern with some mid-century touches and a mix of monochrome with colour added in – plus it’s a mix of both me and Luke so the finished product is something that looks a little bit like this. I love shelf styling, I think it’s so clever – I’ve been poring over Pinterest for a few weeks now and finally decided to give it a little go. Read More

El Famoso Traditional Tattoo Prints

Following on my last post about Brixton, I picked these up after our amazing brunch at Wild Caper from a little shop in the market. I saw them in the window and just had to pick them up for our house. We’re both really into tattoos and the flat, traditional style so these prints really jumped out at me. I’ve put them in our bedroom – our frame wall is really taking shape now. If you love these as much as we do, you can grab them from East End Prints online. Check out Tat Girl & Russian Tat Man!

Monochrome Bedroom Updaters

Finally, we have a bedroom that’s actually relaxing, comfortable and just downright nice to be in. Recently we’ve tackled painting the walls – three white and 1 elephant grey as seen on my Insta – and getting ourselves some curtains and a new wooden Venetian blind. Our bedroom is really coming together and I thought I’d share a few of my favourite bits! First up our bed sheets are all about the geometric, the monochrome and the yellow which is our main accent colour. I picked the fluffy cushions up in Primark for only £4 each and they are SO soft it’s unreal. The rest of the cushions are IKEA and the sheets are George at Asda. Read More

Bedroom Makeover

Over the Bank Holiday weekend we tackled the next room of our house, decorating wise, our bedroom. Here are a few before photos, showing our room, warts and all with the grubby green colour. I think green is definitely now my least favourite colour after sleeping in this monstrosity for a few months. Right now, I never want to see another tin of paint again but there’s still more to do until we’re perfect! Read More
