Behind The Scenes

With all of the perfect homes and gorgeous interiors out the on the internet we like to share a few behind the scenes shots of our real life and real home improvements (and a few random bits of life and what we’ve been up to lately, too.

Behind The Scenes

Over the last few weeks we’ve been so busy that it makes me feel dizzy just thinking about the amount of stuff we have going on at the moment.

We spend days boxing in and plastering the steel beam between the kitchen and dining room (you can see the result here) and our driveway replacement project is almost complete (we’ll be sharing the reveal next week).

Outside of blog and home improvement life there’s a lot been going on, too.

It’s sometimes nice to get away from all of our messy DIY projects and I got to spend a fun morning at the new Rose & Grey showroom in Altrincham checking out some of their gorgeous products (it’s well worth a visit if you’re in the area).

We shared our outdoor fire pit ideas over at Houseology and we spent a fun morning at Ikea where we made this little terrarium.Terrarium

The biggest news is that we were on BBC Radio 4. Yep, you heard right on the radio! We were interviewed for the show You & Yours about our home improvement efforts and it was commented on by Kirsty Allsop! You can check out the interview here! (the Move and Improve segment starts around the 32nd minute and I’m on a couple of minutes later).

Does DIY tend to take over your home and life, too? What do you do for fun?
