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!

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.

New Year Car Care Goals*

Car care has never been more important, especially in the colder, wetter, winter months! There are so many things that can unfortunately go wrong with any car, whether it be a old or new model. Yet, there are some little checks we can do from the comfort of our own home, to make sure everything is running tickety boo. You don’t need to be a mechanic to follow this advice, so need to worry there. So to make sure you lower the risk of fault or damage, I’ve gathered the most vital bits and bobs to check on your car regularly, to keep your car up to scratch.

Regularly check your oil levelsĀ 

This is something you do not want to keep putting off. Low oil levels can considerably impact the health of your car, and if running without sufficient levels of oil, can permanently damage your engine. Checking your oil levels is incredibly easy and takes a couple of minutes. Getting oil is even easier and can often be found in large supermarkets too. Ideally, you will check your oil levels once a month.

Read : How to check oil levels.Ā 

Keep an eye on your tyre pressure and treadĀ 

Low tyre tread and pressure can be dangerous any time of year, let alone the icier and wetter months. Make sure your tyre pressure is sufficient front and rear, and make sure your tyre treads are legal. Both these factors give you the most grip and control over your car through the more trying weathers. If either or both are low on your car, you could run the risk of puncture, loss of control or blow out. It’s super easy to check your tread at home. You can check your tyre pressure at any filling station with a air pressure pump. They even stop when your tyre is at the ideal pressure level!

Lights and full beams working on both sidesĀ 

In the months of darker afternoon and nights, it has never been more important to have fully working lights on your car. Regularly check your lights and full beams are fully functioning throughout winter. Without them, you can cause serious danger for yourself and other drivers. It’s awful to drive in the dark as it is, let alone if your visibility is impaired due to insufficient lighting from your own lights.

Cracks or Chips in the windscreenĀ 

Cracks and chips in your windscreen can worsen over the colder months. With colder months, small chips and cracks can in fact worsen. Whilst small chips can cause little to no problem, other than being ruddy annoying, large cracks and chips can cause impaired vision and risk of greater damage if involved in a accident. Keep a close eye on any cracks and chips you may have and do not hesitate in seeking professional advice if you’re not too sure.

Regularly service your carĀ 

Servicing your car may seem a little expensive, but it is vital in ensuring your keeping your car in working order. Servicing includes the change of oil and break pads, which again are both essential components in the general running of your vehicle. Many garages and dealerships offer payment plans that will cover the cost of your yearly service.Ā For car servicing try Ossett Tyre House in Wakefield area.Ā 

Car care is an all round year affair and not something that should be taken lightly. Start 2018 off right by caring for your car the right way.

Do you have any other advice that should be included?Ā
