The simple things....

in life.


I feel at the moment we are enjoying a little of the calm before the storm. We had the builder around yesterday to talk dates and money. 

The start of the work to the house is looming.

I know it's coming and I am dreading it. I love my house to be in order. I like organisation. I know there will be mess. I know there will be noise. I know there will be disagreements. 

I will try and keep the end result in mind. I will be posting on our progress on a Thursday if you want to follow along.

For the moment I am enjoying simple pleasures like these bunches of tulips for £2 from Lidls.

  2. Oh I love tulips! And despite the disruption, it will be soooo worth it when the house is finished. I will definitely be following the progress ... it will be like a slow-motion Sarah Beeny programme :)

  3. Cannot wait to follow the progress. I know that feeling - I too like my house to be in order and I have had work done on both this house and a previous one and I found it really hard going, I get very stressed out with 'strangers' in my house BUT I'm so glad I had the works done. When it gets too much, hop onto Pinterest or grab a homes and interiors mag. Just think how long you have waited and how hard you have saved for this, it will be worth it in the end!

  5. A bargain bunch - makes me think of spring. We had a lot of building work last year and it wasn't as bad as I thought and worth all the mess!

  7. Love tulips Claire - these are gorgeous! You'll cope fine with the upheaval - it will all be worthwhile and you'll have so much more storage space I imagine? I like my house to be orderly but it rarely is - I could do with some tips! Can't wait to read all about it! xx

    1. i can't wait to get some storage space. We have one built in cupboard in our whole house at the moment! It drives me mad as you can imagine - I've been ruthless throwing stuff out so we can store things under beds and in chests! I am going to put cupboards and shelves everywhere!!!
