Home decor is where personality really comes through, and it’s the finishing touch that turns a house into somewhere that actually feels like yours.
In this category, I share styling advice, colour and finish inspiration, and plenty of room reveals from our own home, covering everything from choosing artwork and styling shelves to picking the right paint colours and finishes. Whether you’re decorating an entire room from scratch or just want to refresh what you’ve already got, you’ll find practical, achievable ideas here rather than anything that requires an unlimited budget.
Good decor doesn’t have to mean spending a fortune, either. Some of my absolute favourite changes in our own home have cost next to nothing. I’ve covered everything from small styling tweaks to full room reveals, and I’ll keep sharing new ideas as we continue decorating our own space.
If you’re not sure where to start, I’d recommend picking one room and focusing on a single change first. A new colour scheme or some updated artwork can completely shift how a space feels, and that way, you don’t need to tackle everything at once.

Something I’ve always struggled with is visualising interiors. How will that rug look on that floor? How will that chair look in that corner? Will this cushion go with the chair? How can you know these things without carrying your chair around John Lewis Home to match it to the perfect cushion? Visualising is something…
Deciding your bedroom flooring isn’t always easy—there’s pros and cons for every type of floor—but I’m here to (hopefully) help you decide.

I’ve already created two mood boards for the bedroom here…
