Coffee table details šŸ–¤ we finally have a coffee Coffee table details šŸ–¤ we finally have a coffee table in our lounge!! It was a real task deciding what to go for. 
We are so lucky with the size of our lounge and we felt we were getting rid of Rhodie’s play area if we went with something too big. After much deliberating, we opted for a budget friendly IKEA assemble which we are so pleased with! The glass gives the illusion of space, whilst offering that much needed coffee resting spot!

Will of course share more in due course! What do you think? Certainly not nailed the styling justttt yet!

Who knew it would be so difficult to photograph a Who knew it would be so difficult to photograph a down stairs loo šŸ¤¦šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø so here’s the deal, it’s not completely finished just yet, as we still have a blind to grab, and it’s since become the store place for all painting supplies, but I just had to share the colour. It would appear by my insta grid I don’t like much colour, but I do and this is the first real ā€˜splash’ of brightness. 
Downstairs loo can be boring, soulless places, and well we didn’t want that!

Can’t wait to share all the details, but for now here’s a snippet!

A little man and his love for his garden 🌿 Wasn A little man and his love for his garden 🌿 Wasn’t this weekend just lush? The sunshine, the blue skies, things finally look bright! 
We had a busy one, sorting through some of the junk we carried through the move, and finally get those must keep items stored in our loft space! I am a little gutted I’m not showing you a transformation of the two spare rooms, but it’s not long now, just a couple more boxes to sort and some things to sell and we will finally have a 3 bedroom house!

Rhodie thoroughly enjoyed his zoomies  round the garden, especially once we took the fence back so he had more room to run! Doesn’t he just look so happy. All he wanted was us all to be in the garden all day!

The grass is certainly longer and more established The grass is certainly longer and more established since this snap from early January. 🌿 Despite Rhodie being a little naughty and pulling a few chunks of lawn up in first few weeks, the lawn is going well. 
But as sunshine starts to appear, our next project is fast approaching - our garden! I have some high hopes for our long garden plot, including a larger patio and some much needed privacy. I didn’t think I would be, but I’m rather excited to get green fingered, and hopefully create a inviting outdoor space 🌿 Any advice for our rather daunting blank canvas? I’d love to hear any ideas!

I am so stoked that our loft is now BOARDED!🌿 Y I am so stoked that our loft is now BOARDED!🌿 You know how it is, those childhood mementos, wedding day cards and the odd air loom just have no other place that somewhere safe, like a loft. It’s something we completely underestimated, but we managed to find someone to undertake the work and we can see the light on our current mess that is upstairs! 
Yes, I thought he was coming on Friday, and yes he did get a fright when I opened the door yesterday morning in my dressing gown, but hey ho, it’s done and I didn’t know I could be so bloody excited for some plywood in a loft!

Did you see it? ✨ The moody new blue in our loun Did you see it? ✨ The moody new blue in our lounge? Dunno why but my colour transformation reel isn’t showing on my grid, but it’s still kicking my around. To say I’m in love with our new colour would be a understatement. Being a bit braver in our new home is coming together, just a few finishing touches to go!

Decorating your wedding – DIY


Decorating your day is a task within itself.

No one wants a bland church, spiritless tables or an empty reception. So choosing how you decorate your venue or venues for some of you is a chunk and a half to consider.

Finding decorations you can either do yourself before hand, or easy and simple decorations that are inexpensive for others to do, is pretty darn hard work.

So if you’re finding it hard to find bits and pieces to spruce up your venue, on a budget or a little DIY, then look no further. Since I am filling a whole marquee and an outside boathouse with decorations, I have found some pretty nifty and cheap decorations that are perfect for the DIY bride.

P.s I am super excited to get creating some of my DIY decorations!!


Hanging Floral Hoops 


Whether they are hung vertically or horizontally, greenery and floral hoops are a massive trend and I can completely understand why. They can truly be stunning and added to any wedding venue!! Whether you opt for the plain greenery hoop or completely floral arrangement is completely up to you, but they are easy to achieve and on budget too!!

Orgami

I saw this amazing idea on a fellow bloggers blog, and for the life of me I can’t think of who it was. However, it was one of the most stunning ideas I have seen and since been ever so in love with it!! Paper orgami birds dangling at different lengths and all different colours. Spectacular within any venue and once you’ve got the nack, relatively easy to do. Whilst it is a little time consuming.

Wild sprays of blooms 


You do not have to be a florist to make some blooms of wild flowers. And of course fake blooms can be pre-made months before the wedding and tweaked till your hearts content. Local home stores like Wilko, Dunelm Mill and The Range all do a stunning range of fake flowers that are perfect for any theme of wedding.

Pick up some inexpensive pots from the alike stores or from a local garden store to hold your wild blooms. Don’t be shy to practice plenty of times or play around with your display!! There are lots of youtube videos that can help create fake floral displays.

Floral Arches 


Another in trend is a floral arch over the entry to your venue or even within your venue. Once again this is a pretty inexpensive decoration, with metal arches being sold at wilkinsons for just Ā£10! Whether you decorate with ivy garland and flower clusters, or with chunky floral arrangements, it’s completely up to you, but they can truly add a little extra to your wedding.

Hanging Pompoms / Lanterns 


Anything hanging from the beams of your venue, or roof of your marque is a winner in my eyes. So much can be done above your guests that can impact upon the whole look and feel of your venue.

Hanging pompoms and lanterns have been a trend that been making a impression on weddings for a short while now, and they do not seem to be falling from the wedding scene. They are so inexpensive and can be found online at a dirt cheap price. They can easily be assembled onto hoops at different lengths or scatted across your entire venue ceiling for a overall effect. Whatever way you decide to arrange them, they will truly add something extra to your venue.

Bunting 


You do not have to have a country themed wedding to incorporate bunting into your wedding decorations. Neither do you have to have it looking rustic. Create your own bunting with your own choice of fabric to really tie it in with your theme. There are lots of ways to do bunting too, whether by the traditional triangles or with rags of lace and Hessian. Why not get creative!

Fairy Lights


There is nothing easier than decorating with light. And it can be done relatively easily too!! Fairy lights within trees, around the bar, or even on the ceiling of your venue is a easy and rather inexpensive way to decorate your venue and add some light for the evening reception. I love fairy lights and think they not only look cute and whimsical but classy all at the same time.

I love some of these ideas and I cannot wait to get started on some of the decorations for our wedding. I don’t want to share too much but there will be plenty of DIY aspects at ours!!

What ideas do you like the most? 

Would you do a lot of DIY?
