The Great York Staycation

What a crazy year its been so far. Normally by this time i’ve either been, or am about to head, on a holiday but not this year. It’s fair to say that 2020 is going to be the year of the  ‘Staycation’ and, when allowed, exploring the locations on our own doorsteps. I am so…

Bedroom Makeover: Bring Back The YELLOW!

Happy New Year EVERYONE! Sorry its been a while – I decided on a little December detox in terms of social media which has given me time to plan a makeover of my bedroom. Ever since I turned the dining room back into a spare bedroom back in September (BYE BYE DINING ROOM, HELLO NEW…
