.... A Filing Cabinet! I know. Younger me would be absolutely horrified at what now passes as excitement in my life, but honestly, I’m obsessed with our new pre-loved filing cabinet and the level of organisation that this brings into our lives. There are some things in our new house that my partner has really wanted (our banquet length dining room table and all the car stuff 😁) and there are some things that I really wanted and this filing cabinet is very much a me thing as I hate feeling disorganised and moving house has meant that we have more paperwork than we've ever … [Read more...]
Five little things that have saved us money this week {29th May 2026}….
Every week I share five small things we’ve done to save a bit of money, make life easier or help us spend more intentionally. None of them are usually huge on their own, but that’s kind of the point. Those small choices add up over time and give us more room for the things that really matter — whether that’s days out, holidays, home projects, treats we’ll actually enjoy or just a bit more breathing space in the budget. Hey! 1) Last weekend, we rescued the old water feature in our garden and I genuinely can’t believe we managed to get it working again. 😂 We think it’s … [Read more...]
I Got a Pie Maker for Free… Sort Of…
One of my friends popped round for a catch up a couple of weeks ago and it was the first time they'd been since we moved house so they got the obligatory tour of the house, ending in the kitchen where we put the kettle on and chatted while we waited for it to boil. She spotted a couple of my kitchen gadgets which got us talking about some of the random gadgets we both own and as we chatted, we both realised that we had a stack of kitchen gadgets each in our kitchens - some of which we use all the time and some are just gathering dust at the back of the cupboards. Somewhere in the … [Read more...]

A Pre-loved home office {on a budget}….
For the first time ever, I have an actual office at home. In our old house, my “office” was basically just a corner of the dining room and honestly, I didn’t mind it at all. I loved being downstairs in the middle of everything. I worked long hours back then and quite often ended up logging back in on an evening or over a weekend to help someone or deal with something urgent, so having my desk downstairs meant I still felt part of whatever was going on in the house while I worked. I could answer emails while tea was cooking, quickly check something while everyone else was watching TV … [Read more...]
Homemade Coconut Soap using melt and pour soap…
A while ago now, I shared my first attempt at making soap with you. My lovely Honey and Oatmeal Soap was so lovely that I decided to have a go at making a coconut soap because as the weather gets warmer, coconut is definitely one of my favourite scents. I always used to think that making your own soap would be a huge complicated process involving goggles, gloves and possibly some sort of minor science qualification. 😂 I’m pretty sure the traditional way of making soap involves lye, which is the bit that always put me off looking into it properly because I am absolutely not … [Read more...]
