Transformation Tuesday #2 in our new home 🌿 The Transformation Tuesday #2 in our new home 🌿 The garden! 
Thankfully we managed to get it done pretty quickly much to our delight. Having a puppy and 20 odd patio slabs for him to do his business on got pretty tedious pretty quickly! 
Now to start the garden planning - I’m actually looking forward to getting green fingered this spring! 👩‍🌾

How much coffee is too much coffee for a Monday?☕️ Asking for a friend 🙈 Today we get our garden turfed and boy am I excited to see green outside our patio doors and a patio that isn’t littered with dog poo or wee!

Despite living in a new build apartment for 4 years before painting, the urge to paint in the new house is so strong. Everything just looks so bare! All white homes tell me your secrets!

Christmas is still on in the P Household 🎄🎁 Christmas is still on in the P Household 🎄🎁 Unlike so many on my feed, we keep our deccys up until January and I’m bloody glad. It’s only been a week since we put them up 😂 and this is the first time in weeks we’ve been taking it slow and embracing the Christmas period. 
-
The house is a mess, and the dining table is just how we left it Christmas Day evening ( along with lots of presents ) and we’ve only managed a quick hoover. But Christmas movies are still high on the agenda and left over turkey is still a plenty! 
-
Thank goodness for the Chrimbo Limbo period 🙌🏻

It’s all been late nights 🎨 As we just prepar It’s all been late nights 🎨 As we just prepare for our new home! Our flooring is down, and despite my husbands worry we would just have a grey home (we are not), we are so happy with it!

Your flooring is always a huge decision as it is the base of your home. We opted for high quality, durable flooring throughout our home, with a colour that will suit our changing trends. Grey is the perfect choice, with its chameleon like versatility!

We’ve got the painting bug and I can’t wait to get some paint on those bare, white walls!

This was something we had envisioned for a while and since we only had one weekend before the flooring was to be laid, we knew we just had to jump right in and do it! 
-
Lots of frog tape later and a tin of Matt black paint and we have the finish we were after. 
-
It’s very small change but one we are sooo happy with, especially as it will be another couple of weeks before we inject colour into the walls!

DIY | Abstract Canvas

 

I have never created a DIY. But, if you know me, since getting stuck in with some DIY wedding aspects I have been more than eager to get some DIY bits and pieces for our home!

So a couple of weeks ago, me and my fiancée painted our bedroom, and what a painstaking chore that was.

Don’t get me wrong, it has been worth it, but my god, 3 metre high ceilings are not the easiest to paint at the best of times!!

With fairly large walls, and plenty of light, there now seems a rather big gap on our wall, which is in need of similarly sized abstract art.

I love a large, good piece of abstract art. It can add so much colour and character into a room, especially on a wall with little else on it. Buttt, the cost of them, I don’t like so much.

Sooo, what better than make one myself.

Armed with new paintbrushes, leftover paint and a canvas, I thought I’d give it a go. Here’s how I got on!

After watching different online videos, of far more experienced people creating similar, I decided to add the darker colours first off, and that was the black.

I knew I could always put the lighter colours over the top if I felt it was too harsh.

I then started with the lighter colours, and these were the colours that we have painted on our walls. I must say, it was much much easier to paint with these compared to the oil paints.

I then added in the ‘asset’ colour of pink, and once again layered the navy and grey over the top to blend in more.

White was the last colour to go on, just to break it up a little.

I am actually really impressed with it. Whilst I wanted much bigger and bolder strikes of colour, I am so pleased this has much more to it. I bought the small canvas to use it more of a trial, yet with how it’s turned out, I’m now looking to purchase 3 more canvas’ to create a combination of 4 canvas’ on one wall.

I would highly recommend anyone giving it a go. I tried not to think about what I was doing too much and just went with the flow. I knew I could always add to it, so I wasn’t too fussed if something was a little too dark.

I am so excited to get started on the following three, I may even do something different on each one and see how they look together!

What do you think? 

Would you give it a go-to transform a space in your home?
