Weโve had a lovely weekend visiting loved ones, and felt it rude not to visit the @cotswoldco store in Harrogate! Such a spacious store full of inspiration and of course, the furniture we love!

We finally decided on a sofa! Weโve gone for the Country Living Woodstock range from @dfs and we canโt wait til they arrive!

Faith's bedroom inspiration, the eggchair and lampshade are both from @wayfairuk It's nearly ready for the decorator to come in next week. A few snags left to do. The carpet is coming out and new @karndean_uk flooring going down. I had to reign her in from wanting floor to ceiling teal and purple. A month ago I seriously couldn't see us getting to this point!

I love this little alcove which is where we broke through from the old existing kitchen to the barn, swipe for before and after photos. We thought that the barn and the house were the same level but in fact they are not so thereโs a small brick step which adds to the character. I love the beams and the top beam in the alcove was the original window lintel so pretty old, possibly 1700s when cottage ended at that wall before the barn was built. Containing the theme of years ago - use and re-use. #lintels #recyclewoodwork #alcoves #cosmosflower #willowkitchensandinteriors #darkgreyunits #farrowandballdownpipe #emmabridgewatertray #mygorgeousgaff #ourgorgeousgaff #johnlewisvase #rogerbannister #rogerbannistermile
Yes itโs just the landing but I love this space, itโs a bit of a weird shape but means we can squeeze in a bit more storage in those boxes.

Today, just two hours ago we did something naughty. We broke onto site and managed to see the front of the house weโve exchanged on for the very first time. โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ Ok so we didnโt exactly break in - the lovely chap laying the paving told us to walk through. And as soon as we crossed the line, told us that he hadnโt told us we could. But it was so worth it, to get this shot. โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ We were meant to be in here by May. But with Covid weโre now delayed until Sept/Oct 2020. Which is quite unfortunately after our mortgage offer expires in August. Our lender is now FINALLY considering extensions, so although nothing is final, and we havenโt yet officially completed, we are still looking at this house as ours until someone tells us it canโt be. โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ Anyway, thatโs it from me today! Our new 4-Bed Surrey home (fingers well and truly tightly crossed - and Iโd seriously appreciate it if you all did the same too please).
Never did we think a new shower door would make us so happy ๐ now itโs been installed weโve been able to rip out the bath and now just a bit of work to do before it can be plastered! ๐๐ผ .

Breakthrough - been quiet as weโve been playing the waiting game.

Whitewash coat going on the walls in the spare bedroom - just painting everywhere white until I can actually commit to a colour!! ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ #homedecorblogger #mydailyrenovation #ourplace #ourgorgeousgaff #homesofinstagram #myhousethismonth #interiorinspiration #pimpmypad #housebeautiful #housedecor #realinstahomes #myhomestyle #homeaccounts #megaloop #renovationproject #renovating #renovation #interiorfollow #interioraccounts #painting #paintingwalls #diy #homereno #homerenovations
Weโre the Tabs, Tom and Hayley. Have had a few new followers so thought Iโd pop our faces up so you can see the people behind the housey updates! Friends and family - this is a reminder of what we look like when we scrub up ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ (days before lockdown and being covered in old wallpaper and wood shavings) Weโre onto our 6th week of living in the new house now. This weekend will see paint going on the walls (just whitewash for now) and more spotlights being fitted (Tomโs an electrician and loves a spotlight ๐) we hope you enjoy following our little journey ๐ #homedecorblogger #mydailyrenovation #ourplace #ourgorgeousgaff #thisisme #homesofinstagram #myhousethismonth #interiorinspiration #pimpmypad #housebeautiful #housedecor #realinstahomes #myhomestyle #homeaccounts #megaloop #renovationproject #renovating #renovation #interiorfollow #interioraccounts #facebehindtheaccount

Love the original detailing in our front room, itโs such a sunny bright room too (when the โ๏ธout!) Planning a coat of paint soon, if I can decide on colour! Suggestions welcome๐The current colour is so calm & restful, this room is where I like to linger๐ #edwardiansemi #periodhomestyle #homeiswheretheheartis #design #designinspitation #ourgorgeousgaff

Well that was one of the best Good Fridayโs in the history of Good Fridayโs despite lockdown weirdness. Hereโs why... . Spent the morning in the tipi, lush. My lovely friend @funkeemonkey1 sent Wren a colouring in picture for Easter (so thoughtful) ๐ฃ We went for the lushest walk together (with no other humans in sight). Wren made Easter cards and we pushed them through the neighbours doors to make them smile ๐ฃ Our elderly neighbours son gave us a daffodil pot for being so kind to his elderly mum throughout all of this (shopping, cards, pictures, regularly tapping on the window and waving with Wren with a thumbs up to check sheโs ok) ๐ผ I organised a surprise zoom call for my bestie @julieaitchison as she spent her birthday in lockdown ๐ฅ , oh and finally, gin was consumed ๐ท obvs. . All in all, a mint day. Just goes to show, if youโre a good human and youโve a bit of time and consideration for others, really great things can happen even when you stay home โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ . #goodfriday #greatmemories #bekind #randomactsofkindness #home #ourhome #tipi #interiors #loungeinspo #livingroom #apartmenttherapy #scrollstoppinghome #greathomestaketime #ourgorgeousgaff #mynortheasthome #hagueblue #designinspo #ourcreativehome #ourcreativespace #diy #reno #cosyhome #lovehome #mystyle #styleithappy #happyhome #kindness #kindnessmatters #easter #interieurinspiratie
The pretty fabric of our lounge curtains. I like them so much, I went and got a second pair for our guest bedroom. ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ We are not up to much today, I might just stay warm and huddled up indoors and catch up on the Saturday television, I missed last night. #curtains #curtainstyle #curtaindesign #fabric #ourgorgeousgaff #realhomeofinstagram #newbuildhome #summerfieldhomes
Iโm so proud of him ๐๐พ and very thankful for his patience and skills ๐ our house would no way be what it is without him! Heโs turned his hand to so many jobs around the house, garden and garage! From putting up curtains and blinds, to rewiring sockets, assembling beds and dining tables, flooring the roof in the garage and so many more ๐ love you Humphreys ๐ #diy #patienceofasaint #hangingcurtians ๐ #progresspics #housetohome #littlebylittle #ourhouse #ourhome #firsthome #clean #cleaning #modern #modernhome #moderndecor #ourgorgeousgaff #hinch #hinching mhincher #hinched #kitchendiner #moderntwist #husbandgoals #fiancegoals #tornagrain #11dalvore #highlandhome #ckesnhoisehappyhouse #weekendvibes #stylemyhome #styleinspo #homeaccount
