I got Mr Nerd (and his friend 🥸🐛😶) to come with me to an industry event last night. All I had to say was, "it's a pasta making workshop" and he was there 🍝🥂 A beautifully styled and very creative night hosted by family-run @myareeceramics to get together, eat good food, make some dubious cavatelli (harder than it looks okay) and get a peek of MC's Collections 2023, showcasing the latest tile trends from the recent Cersaie exhibition in Italy. Loved the food and pasta class from @miscusifood, blooms from @be_botanics and the stunning tablescapes with tiles, so you could pick up and touch them all - I liked the Mar and Terracreta ranges in particular 💙 Definitely adding to that itch to renovate again.

So excited to give our old table a makeover! ✨ I

So excited to give our old table a makeover! ✨ I've had this dining table for 12 years! 😅 It was the first big, new, expensive thing I bought for my house in my 20s, from @east_west_design (and I ate Mi Goreng noodles for three months because of it haha). Since then, this table has seen all our board game parties, birthday cakes, jigsaw puzzles, art clubs, Christmas lunches, Cluedo nights and long late night games of Stratego with cups of tea. But the dark reddish mahogany colour had never really been to our taste, even back then.

It's still a really solid, well-made table - so finally, I spent a Saturday giving it a facelift 🤩 I used our plug-in random orbital sander for the tabletop, and for the little crevices I used a detail sander from BLACK+DECKER's new reviva™ Power Tools range - which are made from recycled plastic bottles! ♻️ Packaged in fully recyclable cardboard boxes, this @blackanddeckerau range will repurpose more than 10 million single-use plastic bottles, diverting them from landfill. The 12V Cordless Detail Sander is made from 11 bottles alone! 🌱😮 Ideal for small DIYs, it is perfect for little details on projects, like the leg joins on this table. To seal, I used @britishpaints clear, water-based satin Timber Protect, with a cheeky drop of Feast Watson Prooftint in Baltic Pine added for some depth and warmth 💛😁 Now the table looks so much better and lighter in our house 😊

Now I just have to sand back the six chairs... and yep, I know they're totally circa-2009, but they are THE comfiest dining chairs, come over, sit your bum down and I'll prove it 😆💛 I know I'm showing you how nerdy I really am, but sometimes I'll stick with comfort over trends 🤓

Spring means lots of house creeping 🤩🌷 These

Spring means lots of house creeping 🤩🌷 These are some beautiful, larger homes that I have always loved.... and love to stare at (sorry, home owners 👀) I believe the white one with the belvedere will do me nicely, thank you 👌🏽😌 But the one with the cute "TO LET" sign in the garden is pretty... and 5 to me is an icon 🌟 Let's play! Which one would you pick; 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5?
