Autumn Vibes 🍂Everyone who knows me will know I am a summer girly through and through. I always find Autumn to be quite subdued and somewhat (dare I say it😬) depressing… Please tell me I’m not the only one?! 😂That being said, I am in full on hot bath mode now and very much enjoying our relatively new bathroom.For those who have been around for a while, you’ll know all to well, how long I had to go without a bathtub as our house was previously a HMO with two separate shower rooms instead of a bathroom. By the time the Reno was completed we were well into the months of spring so I haven’t fully embraced the long, candlelit soaks during the darker months.Bath time for me is the only real time I give myself to switch off, collect my thoughts, manifest what I want from life and wallow my heart away. 🥰This room is also without a doubt my most proudest renovation room as I had to map it all out and plan the design without seeing the whole space as one (it was three separate rooms originally!)So as a summer girly, reluctantly transitioning into an Autumn girly (yes I know I’m 2 months too late 🤣), a bath with all the trimmings; candles, fairy lights, bath salts & flower petals is well and truly welcomed! 🛁#autumnvibes #bathroomdesign

Excuse me, what? 😂👌A couple of weeks ago I spent a very fun afternoon with some girlies painting pottery at @artfulpotterycafe in Worthing - and I’ve wanted a butter dish for AGES. It’s one of those things that I’ve never bought for myself but is super handy to have…Well, as soon as I saw they had butter dishes I knew it was meant to be! 🧈Cue the very long ten minutes, thinking of what on earth I wanted to paint on it - decisions, decisions.I knew I wanted stripes to match my kitchen but that’s as far as I had got…And then, it clicked! 💡The lyrics popped right into my head. Bullseye!I must say, I’m pretty darn proud of this! 😂 So glad the pencil marks came off when it was fired because believe me, I made a fair few errors… 🙊Would highly recommended taking a visit to Art-ful if you’re near the Worthing area because it was a fab afternoon. There’s tons of pottery options to paint and you can BYOB if you pay a small corkage fee. I blame the fizz for my pencil mistakes, just saying 😂#kitchendecor #potterypainting

How I created this Halloween mantel 👇🪄Are you ready to get spooky and add some Halloween decor into your home? For my Halloween fireplace mantel display, I used lots of decorations from previous years - with the added addition of the hanging witches hats that I picked up from @bm_stores for just £4!Here’s my top styling tips on how to create your own spooky halloween mantel:🌳 Forage a branch and display it in a vase - Leave it as it is or spray it black and add cute little bat decorations for some extra spooks!🕯️ Stagger candlesticks at different heights.🫙 Make some lotion & potion bottles from old jam jars, perfume bottles or used toiletries. You can customise little labels to make them witchy!✨ Add a garland below the mantel with an expression that suits the season.🎃 Add in some mini fabric pumpkins and place on top of books… I have a tutorial on how to make these (scroll my reels from 3 years ago!)🕷️ Dot in some little spider decoration across the mantel, and in plants as well for a creepy-crawly feel!🧙‍♀️ Finally, hang some witches hats to make a statement in the room!For more Halloween inspiration and ideas visit my blog (link in bio!)#halloweendecor #diyhalloweendecorations #spookydecor

Jazz it up with some patterned wrapping paper and a nice label or tag.3.

Make a house feel like home👇This is a question I get asked a lot as an interior stylist! You may be able to create a home that looks fantastic, but how do you achieve that homely feel? 🏡1. Personalise! Firstly, don’t hold back on adding things that mean something to only you. This might be a piece of art with some song lyrics that you love, or home decor that includes your initials. There’s a reason why personalised gifts are SO popular!2. Decorate for YOU! Don’t get caught up on other people’s opinions about whether or not they like a particular paint shade you’re thinking of using. If you love it - GO FOR IT! 🙌3. Only buy things that bring you joy. Do NOT get too caught up on trends as this can not only date really quickly, but make your house feel like a show home.4. DIY/Upcycle things to make it more suited to your tastes. If you’re fallen out of love with something, is there anything you can do to give it a fresh new look?5. Use lots of soft furnishings to make your home feel cosy. Perhaps the most obvious suggestion - but not one to be overlooked!6. Fill your walls with your favourite art work. And this doesn’t need to be limited to just prints or canvases! I’ve hung a wreath that I made, a wall fan & some decorative plates from my trips to Morocco that makes my home feel more personable.7. Create a ‘hobby’ area. Somewhere you can switch off from the world and enjoy doing something you love. Maybe you’re a crafter and need a desk station, or a book lover and want a reading nook.8. Showcase family mementos or heirlooms. Things that are unique to you and your family that no one else will have in their home. Things that tell a story and have sentimental value.Let me know in the comments which one of these tips you liked the most! And for more home decor tips, head over to my blog (link in bio) or listen to my podcast @howtohome.podcast ✨#homedecorideas #homeinspiration #homedecortips #homehacks #interiorstyling #housetohome

Ad. My houseplants have taken over! 😂🪴This month, I decided to hand the mic over to my plants as they were very keen to tell you all about the amazing benefits they offer. It’s no secret that indoor plants can (literally!) liven up any space and add a pop of colour, but did you realise they can help to improve your overall health and well-being too? 🌿Most houses contain toxins, which are emitted from everyday items, such as cleaning and personal care products, carpets, upholstery and paint. NASA’s Clean Air Study has proven that household plants can help remove chemicals and pollutants from the air and reduce the likelihood of illnesses. Research has also shown that people generally perform better at attention-based tasks when surrounded by plants, and being within nature reduces stress levels & anxiety. ☺️These are the main takeaway benefits that the power of plants can offer us:- They purify the air. - Plants help to increase concentration and productivity. - They relieve stress and anxiety. - Plants can boost your mood. - They help you get a better night’s sleep. - They may also help you recover from illnesses faster.I’m going to be sharing some more plant benefit tips on my stories over the next couple of days, so watch this space 🙌👀And for more plant inspiration, care tips and advice, head over to @thejoyofplants 🪴#thejoyofplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #fortheloveofplants #planttips #plantlove #plantsplantsplants

Want to make cleaning more fun?!👇Let’s face it, the last thing we want to be doing with our well-earned time off is cleaning. 😫 I’ll be the first to put my hand up and admit that I can be terrible at ticking off the cleaning to-do’s! It’s so easy to put things off, start procrastinating, get distracted by something more fun… But what if cleaning WAS more fun?!Here’s 5 ideas that I’ve used to help me tackle the chores more easily, but have also made me somewhat enjoy the process too!1. Wear some wireless headphones, blast out some music whilst you’re cleaning and DANCE!🕺🏻 I’ve shared a reel on this before but this genuinely does work. When you dance your body releases endorphins, making you feel more excited with positive energy and good vibes.✌️2. Set a timer.⏱️ I never clean without setting one now and it’s something I SWEAR by! It makes me accomplish more in less time and I find myself getting competitive against the clock which makes it more fun 😂3. Call a friend / family. 📞 Have a chat on speaker and catch up with a loved one to make time go more quickly. It’s a great way forget about what you’re actually doing 🙌4. Listen to a podcast or audio book. 🎧 Another great way to get lost in what you’re doing and it can be educational too! Pssst - I have a podcast sharing more home hacks (like this!) at @howtohome.podcast … Give it a listen! 👀5. Switch up the styling in your home whilst you clean ✨One of my fave parts about cleaning is the option to move things around, switch up my accessories and spend some time titivating & styling to give my home a fresh new look - Moving things around makes cleaning far more fun and rewarding. 🙌Now are you feeling more keen to clean?! ✨ Let me know in the comments below what idea you want to try next and what ones you have already done before! I’d love to know! ☺️#cleaningtips #cleanwithme #homehacks #cleaningmotivation #cleaningmyhome

Cagliari, you have my heart! ❤️🇮🇹We’re back! After 6 amazing days, we’re in homeland again and it’s safe to say I’m feeling the holiday blues today 😂Some of my favourite parts for anyone who’s thinking of visiting!🚤 Definitely book a boat trip if you go! This was without a doubt the highlight for us. We booked two tickets through Viator which was 3.5 hours, stopped at 4 swimming spots (including one in a cave!), snorkelling equipment, water & Prosecco 🥂. DM me if you want a link and I’ll send it to you as our host was amazing and would highly recommend.🍽️ The food was to die for! So many amazing seafood pasta dishes, pizzas, antipasti and aperitifs. Here’s a few of my fave restaurant recommendations!Mari Mannu - Delicious seafood pastas with fresh fish you can choose from. We went here on Toms birthday and it didn’t disappoint! The octopus salad starter was 10/10 and the shrimp linguine 🤤La Taverna - Tucked away in the busy streets of the city centre, very picturesque location and great if you want a true, authentic experience. Would recommend the Iselis white wine (from Cagliari!) and the mixed grilled seafood secondi 👌Framento - For pizza! Lots of selection (I had the Bianco, rosso & verdone with fresh stracciatella cheese)Coccodi Dolce e Salato - For the BEST breakfast! Lots of Italian pastries, or hot breakfasts, waffles & pancakes 😋Other things I would recommend doing!- Hire a bike for the day to explore the entire city centre & beaches- Spend a day at Poetto beach (we went to Emerson and hired two loungers + umbrella for the day). Amazing Poké bowl lunch!- Visit Orto Botanico, botanical garden- Visit Orto dei Cappuccini if you want a picnic in a park (the have free deck chairs!)- Take a stroll down to the port to go people watching.- Walk down Via S.Saturnino (a road with lots of good graffiti art!)It really was a brilliant trip! Still daydreaming about the food, and already having withdrawals from the Aperol Spritz 😂🍹Let me know if you have any other questions below 👇#cagliari #cagliari_lovers #travelwithme #sardinia #sardiniamylove #onmytravels

Is creating rainbows in my home my addiction?🌈😂I mean, they do make me rather happy! For as long as I can remember, I’ve always been SO drawn to rainbows. I’ve asked myself so many times why I love creating them throughout my home decor around my home…I think it’s partly because the aesthetic transition between the various gradients of colours just feeds my soul and brings me so much joy 🥰Rainbow colours are also symbols of hope, solidarity and the declaration of equality, diversity and inclusivity which I have always, and will always stand for ❤️🏳️‍🌈We also have the well-known expression of ‘chasing rainbows’ to imply you’re following your dreams or pursuing goals that may seem too ambitious, too imaginative or simply out of reach… I’ve never been one to shy away from pushing myself and aiming higher (sometimes a good thing, sometimes very bad!), so maybe i’m subconsciously giving myself symbols of encouragement and motivation 🤷🏻‍♀️Anyway, I think it’s safe to say that rainbows are my VIBE. 🌈 I think I’ll happily stick with this addiction 😂#colourfulhome #rainbowdecor #rainbow #rainbowhome #colourmehappy #colourfulhomedecor #maximalistinteriors

Ad. Planning to go away on holiday this summer? ☀️👀 Then these houseplant tips I’ve created in partnership with @thejoyofplants are for you! Here are 3, simple and easy DIY self-watering ideas to keep your plants happy & hydrated whilst you’re away from home.🪴 ✨Here’s how to make them!✨ DIY 1:- Fill a large vase or bottle with water and place it near your houseplant.- Cut some thick, nylon cord to your desired length.- Place one end of the cord in the bottom of your vase and trail the other end towards your plant’s soil area.- Thread a cocktail stick through the end of the cord, then poke it into the top of the soil.- Leave for (approx.) 2 hours and watch the magic happen! 👀 This will leave your plants hydrated for up to 4 weeks depending on the size of your vase and can be upscaled to suit larger houseplants too!🪴 DIY 2:- Line the bottom of a large, shallow tray with small stones or pebbles.- Fill the tray with water so that it is almost to the top of the stones.- Place potted plants on top and bury them slightly within the stones. This is ideal for smaller plants. Make sure the tray is left in a bright space with in-direct sunlight and your plants will enjoy soaking up the water for up to 5 days.💧 DIY 3:- Using a cocktail stick and a lighter, create a small hole at the base of an empty water bottle.- Poke a cotton bud through the hole, ensuring that it is a tight fit.- Place the water bottle on top of the soil surrounding your plant.- Leave for 1 hour and you’ll start to see some of the water dripping through the cotton bud!This system can last for up to 2 weeks and is ideal for plants that require less watering. You can also upgrade it by placing the other half of the cotton bud through the cap of the bottle for your outdoor plants... This will filter rainwater into the bottle, meaning your outdoor plants can remain hydrated through sunnier spells too!🌿Enjoy your holiday with peace of mind knowing that your houseplants will be well-watered with these simple DIY hacks! 🙌Let me know which one you like the best in the comments! 👇#TheJoyofPlants #HouseplantCareTips #PlantLover #PlantHacks #DIYIdeas #HomeHacks
