Guest Room Makeover

I'm tossing us a few ideas for my guest room. The room currently consists of a few odd items which have been thrown together in order to make the room useful. And now it's time to make it feel luxurious, so it feels like home for my guests. 


I'm roosting up a few ideas for the headboard and the nightstand. At this stage I'm leaning toward a fabric headboard rather than a timber one. And Navy Blue is so hot right now!  

What do you think?

Kitchen capers

Today I went on a cleaning frenzy. Not that my house is total pigsty, nor do I have layers of grime covering my kitchen cabinets. But my kitchen needed a bit of a deep clean. I've been reading a few blogs as of late one in particular is Atypical Type A written by Alicia Parsons. She has some great cleaning and organisation tips as well as a monthly house cleaning schedule.

Any way all this talk about cleaning and seeing as it's spring I thought there was no time like the present. So I relocated my tea and coffee facilities to a cupboard which opened up a heap of counter space then I cleaned my oven door. It took me a while but it is gleaming now. 


I have the cleaning bug now. My next project is inside the oven... Oh dear, stay tuned.
