Bargain Store Interior Accessories (From Unexpected Sources!)
As both an Interiors obsessive and a total tightwad, I’m always on the lookout for new sources of stylish yet affordable homeware goods.

Unfortunately, all has not gone to plan and the living room reveal won’t be this week. Boo, I know. So, instead of leaving […]
Furniture and Accessories; The Living Room.
Although I already owned a lot of furniture when I moved in to number 69, I didn’t feel that any of it really went with the style that I wanted for the living room. I’ve held on to some of the smaller pieces, which will be scattered around the room, but the larger items definitely needed […]
