It’s amazing how time flies so fast. Why, it feels just like it wasn’t too long ago that summer was here! Now we’re headed for the colder months, and boy can you feel the air getting nippy. What with all the holidays lined up one right after the other, the kids and I are going …
You might feel a mixture of admiration and envy when you see a picture of a stylish kitchen on Instagram or you visit a friend who has a lovely garden. However, achieving the same sort of aesthetic for your humble abode isn’t as difficult as you might imagine. It doesn’t have to cost a fortune …
If you are constantly busy, then you may feel as though you just don’t have time to keep your home tidy. This is understandable, but by changing your daily habits, you can be sure to stay on top of everything with ease. Make the Bed A lot of people think that making the bed is …
Wow, is anyone else finding that the summer holidays are just flying past so quickly? They usually drag but this year has whooshed by in a flash. I’ve spent lots of time playing with the kids and stepping away from my laptop, which has felt awesome. Once the kids go back to school I will …
In the past I have written about how I wanted to reduced the amount we owned by half, then I discussed my minimalist wardrobe. A year on, I feel like there is so much more stuff I could throw away, pass on or donate to charity. I recently read that the average home has 300,000 …
This post about getting paranoid and chucking everything out of the home to live in an environmental bubble. I’m rather relaxed in my living space even if there are a few specks of dust or I have not hovered for a day or 2. However, as society gets more and more specific about our living standards, we …
We are currently a family of 5, soon to be 6. Once our baby has arrived in September, I will share a house with 4 kids under the age of 6. Toys, school books, clothes are found all over our home. We live in a 3 bed home… space is tight. Something about having a …
I’ve had one of those days where I don’t know how I do it all. How do I cope? How do I get all the jobs done? Why does my house still look like a sh*t tip after cleaning all day? I’ve got 3 children. 1 is at school all day, 1 is at nursery …
As the days are getting brighter and the sun is taking longer to set at night, many of us are feeling the early signs of spring. I’m excited! We have seeds starting to grow, and cupboards that need sorting. We also want the house completely decorated by the time summer ends. I don’t want much, do I?! …
What if I told you that I had just discovered a range of cleaning products that work exceptionally well, are cruelty free, have been giving a seal of approval by the Vegetarian society and the Vegan society… and only cost £1. You’d call me a massive liar. Well, sorry sucker, I’m not lying. My regular …
With spring just around the corner, I couldn’t be more ready for it. Winter be gone! I am so over being cold and having dark, grey days. Along with all things spring, you might want to give your home a bit of an update, ready for the brighter and lighter days. You don’t have to …
When we moved into our new home, we realised space would be tight. We were no longer going to have access to a huge loft and we had no garage. We were going to have to sort out our belongings ruthlessly and decide what was really worth keeping. We have been in our house a …
A little something my nan taught me about 10 years ago. Just before she died she purchased a pair of bright pink Crocs. I quickly claimed them as mine after she passed. Little did I know, they would still be helping me out around the home today! Do you have any hacks for helping you …
I HATE spiders. Only the really massive hairy ones though. I’m not too bad with any spider under the 1cm diameter size frame, but any bigger and I’m done. I panic, I get sweaty, I call for my husband, and I refuse to go anywhere near it. I have never removed a spider from my …
