I recently shared my chandelier crushes (here), and in my search for my favourite chandeliers I found a #gobigorgobudget option that you cannot miss if you liked the white beaded chandelier. Let's #gobig first. One of my top crushes was a white beaded chandelier that has the right mix of classic and modern, just the style I like. I have come across a variety of this beautiful pendant, and have found the one pictured below sold by Out There Interiors (which have some amazing furniture and accessories by the way, check them out!) for £745. #droolingoverit Amazing? YES! Pricey? Yes! So if your wallet is turning its back to that one, there's always the #gobudget option. This is the one pictured in my chandelier crush...
I am always shopping for new accessories for my home, and if you do the same you'll know that quite often we can find amazing accessories that would add maximum impact, but also with a price tag that would make a maximum hole in our wallets.

I am in the process of designing some of the clever storage, and in the meantime I am also deciding on the wall finish - and geometric wallpaper seems to be winning on my list! I have shortlisted my favourite ones below, and will be making up my mind on...
Two years ago we bought our first home and moved in to what was a blank canvas, literally! We got a brand new property which meant not only nothing needed doing (in terms of dirty work!) but all the appliances, kitchen, bathrooms, carpets, windows (I could keep going) were brand new - exciting and highly recommended! So our blank box needed some character and personality added in! Having lived in rented flats for the last many years, I had so many ideas that I almost didn't know where to start! My sensible husband knew we needed sofas, a bed and wardrobes as a starting point instead of fancy mirrors and wallpaper - but how tempting was that right? So how do you know what to...
