A UK Renovations and Interiors Blog helping renovators and decorators to make the most out of their home decor projects
This year, to pause and really relish the Christmas season before it flies past us as fast as Santa's sleigh, I thought that a hand made advent calendar tailored to projects and Christmassy traditions would be ideal to bring Neil and I even closer together when trying out new projects and spreading joy to others during December.

Read MoreDear cushion-fluffing friends,
I’ve been on a hiatus from my blog making some life-altering plans.
When you hear the word “hiatus” you may think of a dreamy escape from city life, locking yourself in a cabin in the woods far from civilisation, unplugging your brain from work or projects, ceasing all to-do-lists (those that stretch beyond planting tomato seeds anyway), and just doing nothing.
