Our Little House

Just before Christmas 2013 we got the keys to our first home. Huge smiles were upon our faces. Our actual own space has been a long time coming and we are so happy with it. It is a little cottage style terraced house just outside of Birmingham, almost in the country, so we get the best of both worlds. It has taken quite a lot of work to get to where we are now, but there is still plenty to come. But I thought I would share some corners of our home that I love, both things that I have done and features.
I hope you enjoy...

 Our first plant

 Organisation and storage

 It's mine, get out!

I do love a piece of wood 

 We can now grow our record collection quite nicely

I realised I am a wool hoarder, but I am okay with that. 

Bedroom fireplace and pom pom garland 

DIY ombre pillowcase and rocking chair grey update 

Hats 

Bunting 

My camera collection on display 

Our beautiful new fireplace and the main attraction for the house,

we have had many fires now and it is so lovely 

Dream catcher collection 

My man had his record player hooked up so we can listen all day

I am sure I will share so much more than this over the coming months and years, and all my makes so far will surely appear on here fairly soon too. I have been up to so much that I don't know where to start, but I am sure I can find something as I can't wait to show you it all.

New Name

I am back!

Over the past few months I have had a bit of a busy time. Me and my man purchased a house which we are currently converting into a home. We have already done so much and yet it never ends, as most home owners will know.

So I have a new look coming to the blog which will contain some crafts and bakes as it did before, but also many a home design challenge for a first time home-maker. Make, Do and Mend is certainly becoming a motto of mine and  I am enjoying every moment of it and I hope to help others along the way.

Look forward to speaking to you again soon.
