Kitchen Smashing

Not literally! ... well, I'm not, the builders are instead. No, this is just smashing our kitchen plans from the store.

My big smash book comes with lots of envelopes, which I just love. But I know me, I'd tuck something into one of them, and then forget what I'd put where. So I smashed the front of the envelope.

 
I did cut up a few of the extra plans they gave us. To be fair, the company were amazing as I knew what I wanted and they really listened and took note. You can just see behind I've started smashing a page for the bathroom. Need to finish it off before I can share.
 
There will be more kitchen smash pages to share with you, but I thought I'd get the ball rolling for now.
 
I also thought I'd share a few photos with you on how the building works are progressing ... the builders are really going full steam ahead and send me photos regularly. So here you are;
 
  
Foundations being poured
 
This is our kitchen and that wall will come down (its to the old bathroom)
 
I'm photographing Simon from what will be our new bathroom (brings a new meaning to open plan living)
 
An opening is being made bigger between two rooms

Under the stairs is being opened up too.  


Old Bathroom
What a great find
 
 Its all so exciting, and I can't wait each week to see what's been changed.  I know things will slow down as to big visual differences, but that's when things like electrics and plumbing take over.  I look forward to sharing more with you soon.

Wasn't it Beautiful

I've been missing my blog reading for a few weeks ... and I'm hoping this bank holiday weekend, to make up for that. I'm really looking forward to catching up with everyone and see what's happening.  But of course I couldn't let this post go without mentioning "The Wedding".  I'm a HUGE fan of the Royal Family, and so was in my element, and i've watched re-runs of it again and again.

Of course, I can't let such an occasion go without a spot of decorating ...so I bought the tea towel, the  mug, the bunting, cupcake holders .... the list goes on :) ... but what can I say, those that know me, wouldn't expect any less from me LOL.  I decorate for all occasions, Summer, Winter, Easter - even when England was in the world cup ... I was the girly that bought the football bunting and put it up .. ok, it came down a bit too soon, but hey, no one can say I don't behind a theme.

So let me share a few photos with you of our home through the wedding season



.



Enjoy your weekend and I'm hoping to catch up with your blogs and I'm going to try my best to be a better blogger too xxx
