If you’re a homeowner, chances are that at some point during your lifetime you’ll undertake a major home renovation project. While some people enjoy the process of planning and watching their home transform, others aren’t as keen to jump into remodeling, no matter how necessary the project may be. No matter which group you’re in, it’s undeniable that at the…
I daydream a fair amount about what my future ‘forever’ house will look like, and share a lot of those dreams on my blog, but one thing I’ve not written about really is what sort of Kitchen I’d like. It’s odd, I used to look at peoples outfits and handbags on instagram and pinterest etc, now it’s interior shots that…

As I’ve said before our bathroom is big but dingy with only a small window at one end…
Now we’ve got our kitchen finished I suppose we should move onto the next project in the house, the bathroom. It’s currently a pretty boring room with a lot of potential to become a really nice space but it needs a lot of work. The ceiling is a bit damp in places as there is no ventilation other than the…

Numbers are highest among young people, which would seem to be in line with recent research findings predicting that within the next 25 years, a quarter of the UK population will have adopted a meat-free diet.
