March New Home Buys

March Faves

Every month I will update my blog with new items that I have purchased for my home I will try to do this as soon as I have them so that the items do not sell out. If I see a similar item from another store if the item sells out I will link it below.

As its almost springtime I like to have a good spring clean in my home! And this means getting organised. I also think as I have just had my second son that I was nesting! I decided I was sick of having to find keys all over the house. So I wanted to find a place where I could put all the house keys together. I eventually found this key tidy from Debenhams. The reason I like this one is that it fits on the wall out of the way and it also has a draw for extra keys. Although its a key tidy it still looks quite nice in my hallway. It is a little bit more pricey than some I have seen but I do think it looks lovely and does the job. When you have kids you really need a wall hanging key tidy so little hands cannot reach it!



Key Tidy Debenhams Home Collection £ 18


Even before I had my kids I always liked to be organised with meals and my cooking. I think if you work full time or your a mummy at home its much easier to plan your meals and you save money. I am a foody so I enjoy cooking but sometimes it can be a chore so if I plan ahead I know exactly what we are having and prepare it in the morning. Now that I have a baby and a toddler I have extra mouths to feed so I need to plan every week. So when I saw this in Poundland I knew it was for me! This amazing purchase was £1 and totally helps me plan. This comes with chalk but I have just ordered some chalk pens in bright colours from Ebay. Chalk is quite messy and I like that the pens are nice and bright. When I was in store they had lots of these so I am sure there is plenty left.


Meal Planner £1 from Poundland


We have needed two footstools for our lounge for sometime but I did not want anything too large or too expensive. I really did not want to spend too much as I knew it would be something that I would change again. This footstool was a a real bargain and suits my decor in my lounge. Its small and neat and myself and my husband have one each. Some lounges have the space for large footstools but ours does not so for us these are perfect and when they are not being used they still look nice and can go away without taking up lots of space.

My Hallway

Hallway Design My Hallway was very dark when we brought this house two years ago there was no natural light. This was because the front door had no glass or window and the walls were dark in colour. I went for pale grey with a blue undertone this makes the grey paint warmer. Having tiles on the floor means it can be a little cold so I did not want a cool tone of grey. I was going to use Farrow and Balls Elephants Breathe but I found this to be very dark. Although other Farrow and Ball colours I love such as Pale Powder.ere also a dark colour.  The first thing we did was change the door to one which has glass. It is enough to let the light in but still provides us with privacy.  Then we painted the stairs white as they were a very dark brown instantly this made the room feel more modern and brighter. The door handles were all gold and looked very dated and did no longer matched the grey on the walls. So we got these iconic door handles which ...

My Bathroom Nightime Product Routine

Before I share a blog post on my bathroom I thought I would share a post on my current product nightime routine. In the morning I do not have as much time so at night is when I like to properly care for my skin which is a dry skin type. The condition is sensitive this happened after having my two sons, my whole skincare range had to change after pregnancy. I like to use a cream cleanser that is very light in texture as if the cleanser is too thick in texture I do not feel clean. The foaming cleansers are good for the morning but I am a dry skin type so I don't really get on with these.  Next I use a toner and you should not use a toner which contains alcohol as this is very ageing for the skin. So due to all this I am loving the Clarins cleanser and toner, the toner is Cammomile and very gentle toner even for very sensitive skin. The cleansing milk is light in texture and great for a dry and sensitive skin. It feels very soothing on the skin. I apply these with cotton wool, ...
