Decluttering tips and tips on saving or making the most of space in the home
Loads of people do reviews of their life for the previous year, I’m going to do a review of my house’s life last year. For the first quarter of the year I saw lots of my house because I was still getting to grips with my Fibromyalgia – I basically needed a jolly good rest. Gradually […]
Yay, the summer holidays are over, so I was back over with the gorgeous Danny Smith on Radio Verulam today. Listen again here. I thought I’d share what I’ve been doing all summer – embracing the Kirstie Allsopp revolution! I love the whole crafting/upcycling revolution that has been birthed by the recession.

Normally my little tips about general health are all that’s been needed to boost my energy levels, but there are times in my life when more is needed, and the last few weeks is one of them. The great news for you is that as I resolve my own energy levels, I’ve been able to […]
Did I mention I’m a finalist for the MAD Blogger awards in their Small Business Category, LoL? Really, you didn’t hear me shouting about it and jumping up and down in an excited and bouncy way?! If not, then read here … and vote for me, and then TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW to vote for […]
I mentioned the other day that I’m a fan of decluttering. I also have a serious guilty pleasure; boxes (I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE boxes!), but also includes to shelves to put them in/on! So Ikea is my heaven on earth. I can spend a whole day in there, especially as I love the meatballs, yum. […]
