3 million tonnes — that’s the extra waste the UK generates over the festive period. As Christmas creeps closer, councils are already bracing themselves for abandoned trees, mountains of packaging, and all those “just in case” food purchases that quietly end up in the bin. With this in mind, waste-removal experts at Rainbow Rubbish are…
It’s October, which means we can officially start talking about Christmas. It’s my favourite time of year! October is autumn, and my birthday, and the start of the cooler weather. You can finally dig out all your jumpers and thick bed socks and have movie nights with hot chocolate. Then it’s Halloween, Bonfire Night and…
I know, I know: New Year’s resolutions are generally looked down upon as fads, goals that you give up on after the first month of the year. When everyone else is setting goals, it can be easy to get swept up with the cheer of the holiday season, the promise of the New Year and…
*This guide contains affiliate links It’s November, which means we can *officially* mention the C word in an acceptable manner. This time of year does, of course, come with the usual flurry of Christmas gift guides, but I was really excited to bring this one to you this year because of the sheer amount of…
ANYONE who follows me on Instagram or has read my blog knows that I love my cats more than anything, maybe even more than my husband (hi Jay, if you’re reading this). Okay, maybe that’s extreme but it is true that I absolutely adore both of my kitties and I couldn’t imagine our home without…
I’m a huge fan of Netflix and all the original series they continue to bring out. If you’re struggling for inspiration on what to watch next, then don’t look any further than my top Netflix picks of 2020 so far. These should keep you busy for a while! To make your viewing even more spectacular,…
The North West of England has been my home since I was born and there are some stunning road trips you can take in this area. I absolutely love my home town of Chester, and have never moved far from it. The furthest I moved was Liverpool when I went to university which was just…
If you’re anything like me, you’ve got make up products on your chest of drawers, IN your chest of drawers, in your bedside tables, and all over the bathroom. How is it possible to have so many products? I have no idea, but of course we need every single one. Therefore, the solution isn’t to…
We leave for our honeymoon in November, and I’m getting so excited, I wanted to share our honeymoon route and the plans we have whilst we’re away! We booked our honeymoon back in January, and November felt like AGES away. I remember getting married, in April, and thinking that we had to wait 7 months…
I’ve been wanting to write this post for a while, but never knew where to start. It’s a personal topic, something I don’t often include on my home interiors blog. This might be the hardest blog post I’ve ever written, but I decided it was the right time to get my words on paper (online)…
Biscuiteers’ biscuits not only look stunning but also taste it (with the perfect icing:biscuit ratio). I’ve got a bit of a love/hate relationship with sugar. I absolutely adore all things sugary. I could devour a whole family-sized chocolate bar in one sitting. Easter eggs would last 2 or 3 days, whereas my siblings could make…
This is the first time I’ve joined in this particular linky, run by Coffee Work Sleep Repeat. I thought it was a lovely, easy one to do that shares everything I’ve been doing, reading, watching for the last month. Read I love reading, but sometimes I don’t have as much time for it as…
