A while ago I started the hallway makeover. It’s by no means finished, but we have made progress! Woohoo! One of the tasks left on the list was to panel the hallway, going up the stairs and on the landing. Here’s how to panel a staircase even if you don’t have a fancy mitre saw […]
What Flowers in March in a North-East Facing Garden?
Hello! It’s been a while…! The constant lockdowns and the whole pandemic have really knocked my creativity and I’ve been struggling to get into blogging. I’ve barely done anything to the house or garden since my last post, but this year I’m determined to get our awkward, north-east facing sloping garden sorted out. If there […]
Planting Bulbs for Spring
Gardening is all about looking forwards. It’s this whole act of planning for the next season that I love, and one of the reasons that gardening is so good for the soul. I’ve been thinking of how I want the garden to be in Spring and so have ordered a ton of bulbs from Farmer […]
The Art of the Slow Renovation
Instagram is choc full of renovation accounts. It’s such an amazing place for gaining inspiration and following along with renovation journeys. Recently though I’ve found myself becoming less and less into other people’s renovations and quick transformations (I know, who even am I?!). Now I’m way more interested in the art of the slow renovation.
Weekend Wander to Digley, Holmfirth
It’s been a while since I did a blog post about our Weekend Wanders. In truth, we haven’t been wandering anywhere that exciting recently! West Yorkshire has been in some form of Covid-19 restrictions since March and the levels keep changing. We’re now in a Lockdown 2.0, meaning we can’t meet friends (unless it’s one […]
Short Break to Silverdale
We’ve been going to Silverdale for a few years now. We found it by chance looking for a place to camp in the Lake District, and although it’s not in the Lakes as such, it’s a beautiful part of the world. After the seeming endlessness of lockdown, we needed a change of scenery so we […]
Tips on Autumn Foraging (Foliage for Free!)
As you will know, if you’ve been a follower of the blog for any length of time, I love being creative with foliage. Whether it’s the Super Massive Hoop of Dreams on my dining room wall or a Christmas mantel swag, if it’s greenery of any kind I love it. One of my favourite things […]
Day Trip to Spurn Point Lighthouse
It was Mr R’s birthday a few weekends ago and we decided to have a mini break to the East Coast. We booked a cottage near Hornsea and Mappleton (I wouldn’t recommend this particular cottage) and used it as a base to explore the local area. We decided to explore the coast and had a […]
How to get Cheaper Vintage Artwork
I love old floral oil paintings. There’s something so characterful about them and when teamed with a vintage-style gold frame, there’s nothing nicer. I don’t like the price of them though! Original oil paintings can cost a small fortune, like hundreds of pounds, which is way over my budget. Here’s how to get cheaper vintage […]
Our Kitchen Floor Transformation with Harvey Maria Luxury Vinyl Tiles – Parquet Flooring [ad]
I have been DYING to show you our kitchen floor transformation! It’s been a long time coming (thanks Covid-19 lockdown!). Our kitchen and dining area had two different floor surfaces – slate tiles in the kitchen part, which were so cold your feet turned white when you walked on them in winter, and painted concrete […]
