INTERIOR: HOMEWEAR WINTER WISHLIST




I'm feeling so festive and Christmassy right now, i've even got Clint to get our Christmas Decorations out of the loft, I think i'm going to put our tree up next week. I don't normally feel festive until December but this year I feel like i've started getting ready for Christmas really early, I think Clint has basically finished his Christmas shopping and i've already been wrapping presents, ITS NOVEMBER!

Anyway, I thought i'd share some really cute festive homewear bits that i've spotted recently, I don't really need anymore Christmas homewear but here's a bit of a wishlist that i've managed to compile.

I love Christmas Bedding! Both of these duvet covers are from Yorkshire Linen, I love the penguin set! I don't have anything like this and I LOVE PENGUINS! I think this is really wintery and sweet, the other set is a more subtle snowflake design, I think red bedding automatically makes you feel wintery and Christmassy. Both of these sets are a Flannelette material which is so soft and cosy, I love having flannelette bedding at Christmas time. I also love throws and blankets, I always have a throw at the end of my bed and I have a few Christmassy ones. I love this Teddy throw in Silver from Yorkshire Linen. It looks so fluffy and I love that it's silver, it would look really festive and would go perfectly with the Penguin bedding that i've picked out.

How cute is this 'Baby it's cold outside' cushion from Asda, I love the gold writing and think it would look great with the Penguin bedding and the silver throw! This polar bear cushion is also from Asda, check out Christmas at Home with Asda here.

I just love Christmas Candles and really want this Neom Candle I spotted it in M&S and made sure that I pointed it out to Clint so I hope I get a nice new Candle for Christmas. I also thought i'd include a couple of Yankee Candles as they have some amazing scents for Christmas including Candy Cane Lane.

INTERIOR: HOW TO MAKE YOUR BEDROOM COSY FOR WINTER



It's getting so chilly right here in the UK so I thought i'd put together some tips on how to make your bedroom cosy. There's some really easy ways you can create a warm, cosy space so i'm going to share a few right now with you.

It's starting to get darker quicker so get yourself some fairy lights, I got mine from Primark and hang them on your bed or around your dressing table or window. This just adds a little bit of light for those dark evenings when you don't really want to switch your big light or lamp on. Fairy lights make a room so cute and cosy. I also light some candles, you can get some really amazing scents in the run up to Christmas like this Christmas candle by Neom, light these around the room again for a warm, cosy feel. I like to make myself a big mug of hot chocolate with cream and marshmellows and snuggle up in my bed and read a good book for a cosy evening in. Isn't this penguin mug from Primark so cute! Invest in your bed and mattress . By getting yourself a decent bed and mattress you will get a much better sleep. There's so many different types of Mattress to choose from, from Pocket Sprung to Memory Foam so it's worth doing your research and finding the perfect one for you. Sticking with beds, I tend to stock up on a few throws, when it gets cold its nice to have a throw at the bottom of the bed to keep your feet warm. This tartan print one from M&S is gorgeous and looks really nice and snug, perfect for the winter season. I picked up a few Christmas/ Wintery cushions last year so i'll be getting these out and popping them onto the bed again. This Follow your dreams one from Dunelm is so cute!

These are just a few little tips on how to make your room warm, snug and cosy for the winter. I hope you like them, how do you make your room cosy?

LIFESTYLE: ACCESSORIZING YOUR HOME




We have been living in our flat for a couple of months now and I did a flat tour when we first moved in. We've recently brought a few bits and pieces to accessorize the flat and really make it our own. I'm so happy with it right now and love the little touches we've added. Our landlord came round last weekend and she seemed really happy and impressed with what we've done.

I thought i'd show you some of my favourite bits of the flat and some of my favourite accessories.
This top image is my bedside table in our bedroom, I love the bed frame, it's from Ikea. I wanted this bed for ages. I got this lamp from B&Q, I love the colour it's so bright and looks perfect in our bedroom. It a bargain at £20! I'm reading Girl Online On Tour right now so that's next to my bed.
I picked up this bedding from Primark recently which I absolutely love!! I recently got a new duvet because my old one was to small for our new bed. I can't believe how much difference a nice new duvet made to our bed and our bedroom, it looks so much better. The Duvet Store have a huge range of duvets. They stock so many different sizes, even emperor sizes. They also have different togs and comforts and a huge selection to choose from whether your after Anti Allergy or Coolmax technology.




This is the desk in my office, My office is a bit small because we have huge sliding wardrobes so I like that my desk is small. I got this noteboard from Primark, I don't want to ruin the walls by sticking loads of stuff to them so I use this for my inspirational quotes. The Copper bowl and copper wire rack thing are both from Tiger. The faux plant and plant pot are from Ikea. 















I love Cath Kidston


You only have to look at my blog to know I love Cath Kidston. My banner is a floral pattern, I have pink fonts and all of my posts have cute floral backgrounds :)  I do love floral patterns. I love shabby chic, vintage style furniture. 

Cath Kidston UK Ltd was founded in 1993 when designer Cath Kidston opened a tiny shop in London's Holland Park. She began by selling vintage fabrics, wallpapers and brightly-painted junk furniture she remembered fondly from her childhood. Her clever witty re-working of traditional English country house style meant that her shop soon became a cult success.

Gradually Cath Kidston began to design her own prints and products. One of the first was a printed ironing board cover-practical, quirky and with a distinctive floral print, it has come to epitomise the Cath Kidston look.

Cath Kidston products are just so pretty and such good quality! Their bedding is so thick and comfy and its just gorgeous. I love the antique rose bouquet Duvet cover (the middle image) Its such a lovely floral pattern, I just love the red and pink flowers and I like the white background because it makes the pattern stand out more and its really bright. I love how Cath Kidston products look vintage and shabby chic :) I just love everything in the Cath Kidston section. I really want to buy a night gown like this floral one and some of the polka dot cushions.
