Domestic Lovelies

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010

I honestly don’t think I’ve ever been this bad at blogging since the whole project started - but hey ho, that’s life with a toddler for you! I’ve also been really busy making our new home look pretty, investigating shops for goodies (TK Maxx homewares department is an absolute GOLDMINE) and generally making everything as cosy and comfy as possible. I’ve developed some sort of a mug obsession… I’ve never noticed until recently just how many wonderful cups and mugs there are around….

My favourite so far (it was a tough contest, and this one only won by a whisker!) is nothing short of fabulous, and I love the little saying painted round the top; “life is like a teapot, what you put in is what you pour out”. Brilliant!

The kitchen seems to be the area getting most attention at the moment, whether it’s with plates and trays…

…floral goodnesses….

…or egg cups and oven gloves (what a wonderful name that would be for a domestic blog - Egg Cups and Oven Gloves!)…

And although there hasn’t been much progress anywhere else, a tiny corner of the bathroom is looking a lot more colourful than before…

The little beach hut is actually a box, and although I have absolutely nothing to put in it, I couldn’t resist - it does the perfect job of brightening up the window sill.

    So pretty! I love mugs, but I develop emotional attachments to the them and won’t throw them out!
