I spent yesterday cleaning and tidying, all ready for your visit, so here goes for some before and after scenes.
first and the most important room of the house, the kitchen, not looking it's best, but the teapot is out and in use already.
and ta-da, the boxes are gone! the kitchen was my favourite room in our old house, especially after the months we spent without one, so I was really sad to leave it. This one is great too though, and I love the huge window.
E's room next, now this is tidy for him, look no lego everywhere yet.....
and all set up, just out of shot is the lego display area! This room has probably been painted the most recently and is least shabby. shame it's a rather girlie peach colour, it will have to go......
and a finished shot of Miss K's room, sparkly and colourful, and bulging with bookshelves...
here's where it gets exciting though, the plans for the house call this room the study
but it only takes two changes of letters to make that into studio
p.s. Freddie was thrilled to have made so many fans yesterday, and look he has a partner in crime, Sheila's cat is also one for sleeping in unusual spots. xxx
'Ohhhhh' I've just sat down with my mug of tea - thanks for the invite, don't mind if I do have a little nose around!
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely and that window is definitely a winner.
Have a lovely day,
Nina xxxxxxxx
What a beautiful house! That kitchen is so dreamy!
ReplyDeleteOh, your kitchen is wonderful - I'd love to have a big window like that looking out onto a lovely big garden!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely lovely lovely. And is it fair that I'm jealous of your kitchen? However I'm very pleased you've managed to sort it - that's the bit that seemed to take the longest when we moved

Thank you so much for the welcome! What a gorgeous house. I love the kitchen and especially that window and all the cupboards. But whoohoo - a studio just for you and a project already finshed! I am full of admiration. Have lots of fun in your new nest and thanks for profiling Max.
ReplyDeleteThank you, that cup of tea was most refreshing. I just wish you'd given me a larger piece of that tasty sweet stuff that accompanied it. I suppose I'll have to drown my sorrows in leftover plum cake. Maybe I could have your flowery mug to make up for the slight?
ReplyDeleteHate to be a copycat, but that KITCHEN!!! Actually, I love the windowy-ness of the whole house, and those great deep windowsills. And your fab little studio! Sigh. Congrats!! xoxo
I too like your kitchen and your mug. But that tea has gone cold by now, in my experience.
ReplyDeletewow, you have been busy!! glad you're settling in, how amazing is that window in the kitchen? and lovely to have a dedicated studio in which to create your wonderful wares.x
ReplyDeleteIt's looking so good. What a wonderful kitchen, and that window must make it really light.

ReplyDeleteI love the big bay window in the kitchen.
I love the big windows in your kitchen, you must get so much light.
ReplyDeleteyep, I'm envious of your kitchen window too --- the washing up wouldn't be so bad with a view """

It all looks sooo lovely! What nice-sized room and lights... And that big kitchen--dream kitchen! No wonder you're so happy! ;o) Thank you for the tour... Wishing many, many happy years in this lovely new place. :o) ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful your new home is! So glad you're back. I could sit in your kitchen all day with that gorgeous window!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting to move house. Long time since I visited your blog - sort of lost it! - lovely to be back x
ReplyDeleteThe kitchen looks great -- I love the window - and a studio! I think it's hard to move, but at least you're not too far away. And a beach makes up for a lot.
