Welcome to Episode 1 of our Extension Diaries! 🏡

Considering work wasn't even meant to be starting until next week, I think we've made pretty good progress, and even if nothing more gets done now, we've got a rustic looking concrete based plunge pool to enjoy 👍🏾

Follow along to see how close to the visualiser our finished project will be!

Snaps of our home peak homing to remind me that it wasn't always a mini building site (it's only been less than a week and I've already forgotten)

I can't wait to have another space to faff with, so many ideas already bouncing around!

Famalams on Tour 🏞️

Been a bit quiet on the gram this week because we've been living it large on a double family holiday to Center Parcs in Longleat 🌲 despite the weather serving complete chaos vibes and a side serving of dog related drama at the end of the week, it was an absolute blast for adults and kids alike

Highlights include:
- seeing deer and baby ducks frolicking just outside our lodge
- milky cocktail night
- attempting to escape the rapids within the lazy river
- our toddler boys' first sleepovers
- the kids having absolutely no chill when it came to the rules of curling
- nachos nachos nachos

A good old-fashioned for y'all featuring our biggest DIY makeover to date ⚒️

We turned our previously white gloss kitchen which was in good nick into a black and brass jobby with shaker style doors, white countertops, tiled peninsula and backsplash. We left the flooring to the pros (but might consider giving this a go one day soon...)

Our transformation is up for 'Best on a Budget' at this year's Home Awards 🔗 check out the link in our bio to vote for us!

And let me know what you think of the changes we made!

This is the life hack I've been waiting for 💅🏾

As a busy mum of 2 who also loves a fresh set, spending hours keeping my nails looking good just isn't a realistic option anymore (woe is me).

I've recently rediscovered press-on nails which have clearly come a long way since I was a 10 year old playing dress up - the ones by are an absolute game changer; they look just as good as gels, never chip, last for weeks and don't damage my real nails. Oh, and did I mention it takes just TEN MINUTES to go from ragged to ravishing?! ✨

Now I've discovered a quick, easy and damage-free alternative to gels it'll be a long while before you get me back under a UV lamp

Now if only there was a press on option for a full face of makeup... 🤔

Life Lately ✨

This month has flown by in a haze of fun days out, racing about, nappies, and napping (any thoughts on the use of the Oxford Comma?). There's been goodbyes to loved ones and hello to new beginnings and lots of sneezy sunshiny goodness in between

Here's a photodump with absolutely no pictoral contexts, enjoy ☀️
