Hey guys, so welcome back, I hope you're all really well! I have a home video for you

today. I haven't done one of these for a while. I have a few new additions around the

place, nothing major as of yet but I have a few furniture pieces and a few little decor

things and I love watching home videos and I'm sure you guys do as well so, I'm going

to show you some of the little things I can pick up, also I'm gonna give you a few little

peeks around the house, where everything else is living, so. There are three rooms that

I've kinda been concentrating on recently, the lounge, the bedroom and the bathroom.

You guys will have probably seen some of my bathroom in my recent videos but I'm gonna

start off with my bedroom because I have a new bed coming soon which I'm really exited

about, I will show you guys that when it turns up, finally. It's been about six weeks in

the making. But I wanted a few new bits to accessorise it with, some new pillows and

things. I love buying pillows, who doesn't really? So I have a couple of new ones starting

with, this fluffy awesomeness. So this is from Oliver Bonas, probably the most I ever

spent on a fluffy cushion but I saw that Suzie had one of these and it's kind of different

because if you turn it over, it's round. I haven't come across any round fluffy cushions,

all the ones that I do have are square and this one's a little bit smaller too, I liked

that it was a bit kind of more compact. But I like this one, I love the colour it's a

very subtle kind of taupey pink, it's almost somewhere between lavender, lilac and pink.

It's currently sitting on my pink chair in the bedroom and I think those two colours

go together really nicely. On that chair as well I have another cushion, this one is a

similar colour actually if I hold the two up together you can see. This one is slightly

lighter but this one is still a really nice taupey, lilacy, pinky colour. This is actually

from H&M home, I think they do amazing cushions and just amazing everything else when it comes

to homeware but I do really like their cushions they're super affordable and it's a nice

size I think it fits really nicely again, on the pink velvet chair, it doesn't overpower

it and I think it looks really nice with the fluffy one. I love velvet anyway, I love velvet

everything. One day my dream is to have a pink velvet sofa, but we'll see, we'll see

about that. I've lived in this house for, getting on

two years now and theres a lot of big walls and kind of empty spaces and I really haven't

spent a lot of time thinking about prints and dressing them. But now is the time it

seems, as you can see this one, this massive print I've had since Christmas and I've

only just hung it but I absolutely love it, that one is also from Oliver Bonas if anybody

was wondering. So the two I have in the bedroom are from

Desenio, I think I'm saying that right, I'm probably not.

I went for the NAMASTAY in bed print which I thought was the perfect thing to actually

hang over my bed and its very simple, I went for a black frame with that one.

So the other print that I have which is a portrait style one, the other one I have landscape,

is a kind of take on Chanel, Coco Chanel, it says Coco and I think it says I don't

do fashion or I do fashion or something like that. But again I love the simplicity of it,

it's very minimal. So I love those prints, I have a couple more around the house as well

but those are definitely some of my favourites. And then the final thing in the bedroom which

is kind of new is a plant. I can't believe that I've actually brought, not one but

quite a few plants into my house recently, I'm not great with living things.

This one is called a Mother's Tongue though I believe and they are quite easy to take

care of, they don't need a lot of watering, they don't need a lot of maintenance they

just kind of sit there, and I really like it, it's a nice pop of green in the room.

I've also read that one is supposed to be really good for the air and just kind of refreshing

it and keeping it healthy. Which I think is nice to have in the bedroom.

I actually ordered that one online which I think is amazing, I was so pleased with how

it came, it was perfect, exactly what I wanted but I find it really hard to find the types

of plants that I like unless I'm kinda trawling around various different garden centres and

things like that. The planter that I have that one in is another H&M Home find. It's

a really pretty kind of, off pink colour, it's kind of quite earthy but it definitely

has a hint of pink in it and the paint is almost kind of slightly marbled on it, I really

like the effect of that. So those are all the new bits I have in the

bedroom and then if we move across the hall into the bathroom. This room I like to keep

very minimal, very muted, not a lot of colour in it. I find it just makes it much more calming

space and it's become the space that I really like to spend a lot of time in.

So the biggest change for me and one that I'm so happy that I made, was to get a big

set of chest of draws in there, now I know not everybody has a lot of space

in the bathroom, I'm quite luck to have a large bathroom which I think used to be

a bedroom before it was converted. I used to have quite a lot of shelves with

lots of things out, I have a lot of beauty products doing what I do

so they was just scattered everywhere and they made everything look so untidy and disorganised.

So everything now lives inside the draws and I will be showing you kind of what exactly

is inside there in my clear out series, the next one of those is coming up on Friday so

keep an eye out for that. But basically all my skincare lives in there,

anything else that I need in the bathroom; body stuff, hair stuff, it's just so, so handy,

so I love that. I think it's a really beautiful chest of draws too, it's just from IKEA, it's

from the Hemnes range. I have a few bits from that range dotted around the place but those

chest of draws I think are gorgeous. And on top of that I wanted to keep things very minimal

again, nothing too cluttered, not many products or anything out. So I have three things. Oh

I have them here I can show you. My favourite of the three definitely has to

be this mirror. This I actually got in Next. I was so pleased with myself when I found

this. Oh you can see my collection of alcohol reflecting

from the bar cart. So this style of mirror, the marble stand

with the kind of twisty round mirror at the top, I'd seen quite a lot on Pinterest and

places like that. So I found this online, originally this was

silver the frame I actually spray painted gold, it was kind of simple actually I just

put some masking tape around it, popped the mirror out of the base and then put everything

back together again. Highly recommend having some spray paint in

the house because it can instantly change the look of something and I think this looks

really nice now that it's gold, it kinda fits the theme of the rest of the bathroom.

Also this base is not real marble, it's plastic but the marble effect is really, really good.

Some faux marble items can look kind of just really, really fake and cheap but I think

this one is nice. I also have another marble piece on there,

this one is actually real marble and you can see it doesn't look that much different

to the mirror. This is another piece from Oliver Bonas.

So it's got a little gold handle on the top and it's just a plain box, it's pretty big

you can fit a lot in here but I keep my jewellery and my hair bands, earrings, all the kind

of stuff that I wear on a daily basis I just throw in here and then I can go back in the

morning and put them on again. So I love how this looks and I think really

kind of finishes off the whole table as well. So another thing that I think H&M Home are

really, really great for are baskets. They do so many different kinds of these, different

shapes, different colours, I have quite a few. So I got this one, which is in this kind

of matte gold effect which matches the mirror and then the little pot, just to finish off

the top of the chest of draws. I was planning on putting maybe like bath bombs and products

and things like that in here and I might still do that if I have any, but for now it's housing

another planter and another plant that I have in the bathroom. That planter is also from

H&M, it's a very simple kind of honey comb effect. But I kind of like the way it looks
