THIS IS ME! 👋🏾
I've just experienced my biggest influx of followers to date (thanks Emily) so I thought I'd introduce myself with a very self indulgent list.
Now you know these things I'd prefer it if you didn't unfollow me 🫣
1. I've lost track, what week is it?
2. God bless FTP 😢
3. God bless big sisters.
4. Blessed by alfresco situations.
5. Fully submerged - at long last.
6. New floor. Wrong floor. The tile hex continues.
7. A moment please for the last of the rooms to be gutted.
8. I need me a @passe_the_store shadow ban.
9. Happy birthday to me 🎂
10. Builders depot phwoar.
11. Lupins phwoar.
12. Broken mirror. Bums.
A few people have asked me what working with Den was like so here is my extended round up. 🖊️
Working with Emily has been an absolute dream.
Having the true essence of my home captured in these beautiful photos has been the cherry on top. @kristy_noble (photos) + @studio.lundquist (styling) you creative superstars.

The number of people including my dear husband who told me they weren't keen on tiles...
In case you haven't worked it out I bloody love them. The original hallway tiles are one of the reasons we first fell in love with our home and I cannot wait to reunited with them 💙💛🤎♥️
Whilst I might be atrocious at calculating the correct amount of tiles needed for a project I'll never turn my back on a tiled surface.
I can't believe there are a thousand of you along for the ride!! 🫶🏾
Thanks so much for indulging me and my manic shares, it definitely feels like a case of "we listen we don't judge" and it's made this looooooong arse renovation feel less lonely.
The next few weeks are going to be a visual treat as we plunge headfirst into final finishes so do hang about, and as ever I'm happy to share all the details so don't be afraid to ask! xxxxx
Anyone who has seen me in recent real life will know I have kicked gratefulness to the curb and I am a roaring ball of renovation rage.
Good news I'm reeling it back in and marking this 18th passing week of the year by giving thanks.
Thanks for juice cleanses, organised chaos, beautiful spaces, a garden in bloom, the light, the trades, the artisans and the progress 🤎
We're getting there...
A kitchen walk through with tags. I've written quite a bit but quite a bit of thought went into it.
Do ask the question if you'd like to know where anything is from ❤️
Dont do it!
If you are desperate to turn your mediocre home into a gorgeous AD inspired pad DON'T BOTHER.
Take your hard earned money and go on holiday. In fact go on a few holidays - rent a private beach because renovations costs are that WILD and I'm not sure they are actually worth it.
Make the most of your hotel rooms, take pictures, get inspired but do not be tempted to start renovating.
Unless your house is unfit for purpose and you can't actually live in it don't do it. You've been warned.
Grouting, painting and final electrics. That is all there is left to complete in the new family bathroom.
It's a work in progress but I am so blaaaaady pleased with this gorgeous new space.
Strange to think it used to be the SECOND KITCHEN 😮
