Hey beauties,

If you are subscribed to my Youtube channel, then you may have seen that my newest video is an office tour/quick look into my make-up storage. 
As I was filming for this, I kind of had the idea to do a little room tour every so often, of each different room in my house, rather than a full on house tour video. 

The current house I'm living in is rented, so we haven't yet put paint to wall and everything is still pretty simple. I am slowly building it up with character though, so it would be good to see how our rooms change. 
The first room I decided to photograph was of course our bedroom. (It was the most tidiest at the time.)

Let me know if this is a post you guys would be interested in. I know I'm a nosy parker and absolutely love this kind of thing.

instagramMOVING WEEK!!
Seriously one of the most stressful weeks of my life! 
Thankfully though, we are now totally and completely moved into our new house! We cleaned the flat today, and are going back to finish it off closer to the date of which we have to give back our keys. 
I am absolutely loving my new house, the space we have now is amazing, and the added fact that we now have a study is awesome! 
Other than moving, I really haven't done much too exciting this week. 
I will be back from now on, posting regularly, and if the weather stays bight and sunny, I will hopefully have some new OOTD's up soon! 

Hope you guys are all super well!

Hey lovelies!
Seeing as I am in the process of moving house, I thought it was about time to finally start posting some house-y DIY projects. I absolutely cannot wait to get decorating the new place, and I'm finally going to have an office!! Ok, I have to share it with Liam, but we're planning on splitting the room in two so we can have our own style in each space. 
A few months ago I focused my time on transforming an old coffee table into my vanity stool. Whilst my mum had just made a desk for me out of the sides of an old wardrobe. What can I say, we make do with what we've got. 

If you ever want to give this a go yourselves, the steps are super simple!
- Make sure to sand down your table
-Use a paint in your own choice of colour, I used what I had left from painting the desk, and paint a couple of coats until you are happy with the results. 
-You can use either a separate cushion, or you could make your own padded seat. I used the wadding of an old pillow and an old pillow case. I just made sure to nail down the pillow case tightly to make sure the padding didn't slip around underneath. (You could also glue the padding to the top of your newly painted stool as an extra precaution.)

Did any of you guys notice the big cheeseball move I made by painting our initials on the top of the stool? Yeah, so now mine and Liams love will forever be under my toosh. 
Hopefully in the next few weeks, throughout the move, I can post a few more DIY projects to give you guys ideas of how to turn old stuff into new stuff. :)

Hope you are all having a good Tuesday!

Hi Lovelies!
We've finally been given the go ahead to redecorate our flat. We're not planning on doing anything fancy but we really just want to make it feel more like home and put our own personal touch on it.
The first room to be done is most definitely going to be our bedroom, mainly because it's where I do all my filming and it would be nice to finally be happy it. 
First job will be to paint the back wall blue! (This photo is photoshopped so we could see what it would look like.)
The big redecorate also means I can finally get my desk and make-up sorted into one area!! I seriously need to get saving, but I'm hoping birthday money will cover this. My mum's bringing me up a stool when she comes up from Wales next week. This'll be my new crafty project to work on and keep me busy until I get get the paint. 
Hehe, check out my cool drawing. You wouldn't think I was an art student, would you? 
Basically this is what I have planned in my head just spilled out onto paper. Obviously proportions of things aren't correct and I will most definitely have more stuff on my desk, but I'm really excited to finally get it sorted. 
I'm also planning on getting a rack for my nail varnishes. Probably this one, which I featured on my blog post about storage. Where I'm going to put it though has yet to be arrange in my brain full on plans. 
Now for the part where you guys come in. 
The wall which is directly behind me when I film my Youtube vids is currently just a plain cream wall. I want to put something on there to make it a bit more personalised but I'm still not 100% sure of what. I was thinking maybe having a wall of hanging hearts, or just a couple of nicely framed pictures.
So I need to guys to tell me what you would prefer to see. I know some viewers have opinions on Youtube set ups etc, so I'd like you to tell me in the comments below if you would prefer a more plain wall or one with a lot of character?
