INTERIORS: HOW TO CREATE YOUR PERFECT BATHROOM?

image: pinterest

image:pinterest


We've been making some changes to the apartment and we will be painting and giving the whole place a fresh new look. I've started already with the living room by adding some new accessories and changing the colour theme. We are going to do the bedrooms next and then the bathrooms ( we have an en-suite aswell as our main bathroom)

Our bathroom suites are white and we are going to freshen up the paintwork, keeping it all white and fresh. I want to add some new accessories to give the bathrooms a complete makeover.

I love this huge round mirror, it's from Habitat and is gorgeous, it's on trend and will make a big difference.

I'm loving these copper bathroom accessories and think they will add a really nice addition and refresh the whole room.

I really like this Blush Pink colour right now so might pick up a few towels and accessories in this colour, we have blue towels at the moment so this will make quite a big difference.

This long mirror radiator from DesignerRadiatorShowroom.co.uk comes in a Rose Gold colour which would be so cool and would match with my colour theme perfectly. You can actually head over to the DesignerRadiatorShowroom.co.uk website to enter a competition to win £250 to spend on making your dream bathroom into a reality.

REVIEW: PEBBLE GREY VANITY MIRROR



I've been using the Pebble Grey Elko Vanity Mirror for a few months now and never got round to featuring it on my blog. I thought i'd share my thoughts with you. 

Pebble Grey stock a huge selection of different Bathroom mirrors in all shapes and sizes. They have loads of illuminated mirrors to choose from as well as a selection of Towel Rails, Cabinets and other bathroom accessories. The mirrors are really affordable and a really good finish and quality. They have so many different styles so there's something for everyone and any bathroom. 

I've already got a small mirror and a big mirror in my bathroom so I have popped my Pebble Grey Vanity Mirror on my dressing table. It plugs right into the mains so is super easy to use. The light is really bright and perfect for those dark winter mornings. The mirror is double sided with a magnifying mirror and moves up and down so you can position it where you like. Its not too heavy so really easy to move around and its great for checking the back of your hair. 

I think it makes doing my make up so much easier, I use it every single day and even if I don't need the light I like have it close to me when i'm doing my make up. As you can see when the light is on you get a really good light on your face making applying make up so easy, you can see if you've missed any patches etc. 

The Elko Vanity mirror is no longer on the Pebble Grey site but they have just release the Lima Led Magnifying Vanity Mirror which is exactly the same however you can affix it straight to the wall.

OUR FLAT TOUR


Myself and Clint moved into our very own flat just over a week ago! We've unpacked and were all settled in so I thought i'd share a little flat tour with you. I haven't gone into massive detail but just thought i'd share some of my favourite areas and favourite bits and pieces with you.


The kitchen - our kitchen is small but it's perfect for me and Clint. There's a good amount of space and plenty of cupboard storage. I thought i'd share my gorgeous tea caddies from Next, you can write whatever you like on them using the chalk! I love them and I love my rose gold/ copper kettle and toaster which are also from Next.

The Living Room - This is where we spend most of our time. we have plain black sofas, these were here already which meant we didn't have to go out and buy a new sofa. I've added the blanket and cushion to make it more to my taste. 

We got the Tv Unit from Ikea and the footstall from Homesense. 

I love these prints, the first one is from Etsy, the second from Ella Masters and third from Milly Jackson 



This unit is from Ikea. The lamp is from Homesense, the frame is Umbra from Red Candy , the basket is from Tiger and the candles inside H&M Home




This is my spare room/ dressing room / Office space. In here there are big sliding fitted wardrobes and my big mirror. I have this Malm chest of drawers for more clothes and my desk where I do my blogging. I love the print on my desk by DotCreates.com 


My Bathroom- We actually have this main bathroom and an En suite. I love the flooring, this is in the En suite also. I like the little bits of blue/ mint i've added. I haven't had a bath yet but will nip into Lush this week to get myself some Christmas goodies and have a nice relaxing bath. The wooden thing across the bath is from Ikea, i'm gonna bring a cuppa tea in the bath and maybe bring my ipad in and watch youtube videos.



The Bedroom. I got this gorgeous bed from Ikea, it was only £80 and it's so sturdy and such a great bed. We also got our Mattress from Ikea. I got a new dressing table which is also from Ikea but I bought it off Gumtree. My bedding is from Asda. I really need a new duvet as mine isn't big enough, my old bed was smaller than a double. My lights on my bed are also from ikea.

LIFESTYLE: BATHROOM IDEAS

all images from pinterest 

So it's official we've got a moving date and are officially moving out! I'm starting to get really excited about moving in and having our new flat. I can't wait to get our stuff in and to have our very own place. It's so so exciting. As we are renting we can't really do much renovating but moving and decorating is a huge step when getting your own place and its something that takes alot of time, money and planning. 

I've been thinking alot about when we finally buy our own house and have to renovate it, my parents only bought my house about 5 years ago and I remember all the work they had to do and I remember the kitchen and bathroom being so so stressful. I think its good to research and get an idea of things you need to buy and things you need to be prepared for. In our bathroom we had to literally rip everything out and start again, We fitted a brand new suite and had the walls and floors tiled. You wouldn't believe its the same bathroom! I love looking at pinterest and looking at dream bathrooms! I'd love marble walls, you can actually get marble bathroom wall panels which is amazing and then i'd get some really nice clean walls and all white bath suite. I'd love some really big slate tiles for my flooring and then some nice clean white gloss ceiling cladding which would reflect the light and make the room look huge. 
I love looking on Pinterest to get home ideas, sometimes theres some really gorgeous ideas that you can try and recreate yourself.

LIFESTYLE: MY DREAM BATHROOM



All Images from Pinterest 

I'm trying to do a few more personal, lifestyle posts on the blog. I feel my blog is kind of lacking the originality that it once had. Recently Clint and I have been looking at moving out and getting a place together. I think we are just looking at renting for now so we can start our own lives together. The thing with renting is you are quite limited to the changes you can make so finding somewhere thats clean and modern enough is proving difficult. I have been spending alot of time on Pinterest looking at white beautiful bathrooms and vintage style kitchens planning what our home will look like. 
For my dream bathroom so money is no object i'd love a simple white suite, so that if I redecorate I could keep the same suite, i'd love a bath and a separate shower. There's some really gorgeous showers nowadays, they are sleek and fashionable. UK Bathrooms have some really lovely suites and furniture to create that dream bathroom. I would need quite alot of storage space as I think we would be looking at a small house or a flat for our first home as it's just the two of us but I want the bathroom to be tidy and not cluttered so drawers and units would give us that extra storage that we need. Now for my dream bathroom i'd want a jacuzzi bath and a massaging shower, there's an interesting article here on Showhome about how the demand in recreating a home spa experience has increased. For our first bathroom its going to be all about how we accessorize, i've spotted a gorgeous chevron shower curtain in Asda and will probably stick to white and silver accessories so if we move house we can bring them with us. I want it to look clean and not cluttered so I'm not going to go overboard with accessories just the essentials.
