If you’re looking for chimney breast or alcove ideas then you’ve come to the right place! Here’s a list of my favourite ways to decorate chimney breasts and alcoves, plus how I’ve decorated mine!

We shared all about our Master Bedroom renovation recently – and what a milestone it is to now be flicking through those pre-war newspapers we found lurking under the floorboards, in our comfy new bed having finished the project!

We just had shutters installed to our bay window by Hillarys – here is a full Hillarys review including a before and after reveal. We’re so proud of the transformation!

We spent an entire day doing the first two modules of our own course in order to create a budget and layout for our master bedroom, it brought into view once again just how much work and thinking is required in a renovation.

The early phases of our master bedroom renovation are now full steam ahead. Here we share a few things we learnt along the way in our pursuit for the bedroom of our dreams (no pun intended!)

Our guest bedroom has been a bit of a blank canvas since we moved in, but in this post, watch me make it filled with country charm using just 3 items.

Having the whole family staying over at Christmas means Fifi needs to get inventive with where to put everyone up! Mattress buying to the rescue! The race to sort out the junk room and turn it into somewhere someone wouldn't mind sleeping is on!

Whilst I'll miss all the sun, BBQs, prancing around the house in vest tops and shorts and all the al fresco G&Ts Summer brings, there's part of me that's looking forward to getting home and decorating our house ready for the Autumn. Here's 15 budget ways I'm turning my bedroom from crisp to cosy. 

Me and Neil were chatting about paint colours for No. 42 the other day. I asked him which wall sample he preferred in each of the rooms and he replied:

"I don't mind, as long as the whole house isn't grey. These samples all look grey"

Oopsy!

Progress at No. 42 is going steady. We're almost complete on the plastering of 2 rooms, living room and first bedroom, so we've set ourselves high goals to have these both complete by Christmas (sounds too good to be true given they look like this right now)
