Finally - and let's agree it's taken somewhat of a crisis to boot this into action - I'm getting time to share our renovation recipes. I bought the .co.uk for this five years ago, I kid you not, and had every intention of merrily blogging recipes all the way through our build. But we were... Continue Reading →
Treasure Tingle: Upcycling A (Very Orange) Pine Dining Table
You know us here, we love a bargain and there's literally nowhere better to bag a bargain than your local charity shop. Are you a fan of digging through the fusty to find treasure?

Although there was a level of temperance with only the festive booze finished off and no 'extras' bought, so there was an element of virtuosity. All extra cash... Continue Reading →
Moregeous Monday Moments (and a hamper competition!)
What with all this talk of ditching plastic and milk bottles, I've been shockingly remiss and not posted a Monday Moments renovation update since the end of November. We were so busy trying to get the dining room Christmas-ready that bloggin' flew right out of the window. It's all too easy to fly through Instagram... Continue Reading →
