Home interior design styles

When Lee and I moved in with each other after a long distance relationship it soon became apparent that whilst we shared many interests and a love for each other, our home styles and decor tastes differed greatly.

Over the years it has been a struggle to combine our differing styles and often there has been a lot of compromise when decorating our home and making home improvements.

Caring for your garden all year round

Whilst it can be an easy mistake to think of gardening as a spring and summer job the truth is that gardening is an all year task.

To have a flourishing and healthy garden it is important to care for it all year round. The different seasons require different care requirements and gardening tasks. As well as season specific maintenance each season has different flowers, veg and fruit that flourish and the different seasons welcome its own variety of wildlife.

Valentine’s Day - What do women really want?

With February swiftly approaching so is the annual holiday of Valentine’s Day. The day when it is traditional to send a card to current or prospective Valentines.

As with most traditional, seasonal holidays the idea of Valentine’s Day has become very retailer driven and materialistic. The expectation of it being simply about an anonymous love themed card being sent to a loved one or a desired Valentine is overlooked by many for more extravagant declarations of love.

What parents do to unwind around the home?

Family life can be very hectic. There is always something to do and the list of chores and family events is never ending. Since becoming parents for the first time over 5 years ago life has been busy and crammed full with things to do and adventures with our little ones.

Now that we are a family of four, my time to get things done around the house when Bug is in school is gone with my time now occupied by a busy baby toddler. As I don’t seem to manage to get through the long list of household chores in the day anymore thanks to a busy, inquisitive and playful Jelly Bean even once the kids are in bed and fast asleep my day is not done as I try to catch up on some chores. Life as a parent is tiring, endless and busy…..but thanks to the joy and love the kids bring it is all worth it!

With life being so busy and tiring I cherish any time I get to relax and unwind. For me the best relaxing time is when I get to enjoy a long, hot soak in the bath or when I get rare time to snuggle up and watch a film (even better if I can last through the whole film without falling asleep!).
