I’m a nobody lecturer and had my curtains custom made so they were the proper length. I thought that was “normal”. At least, in the country I’m now living in it’s what is normal. We did it for the house we rented too — we own the one we’re in now.The curtains thing made me laugh. She’s like they need to be soooooo long. Yes we know you have high ceilings
It was in her before and after video of the living room which she posted at the end of March 2019 - that's how fickle she is - less than 2 years from her living room reveal and half the stuff from that video is no longer in that video. Also wondering where the pink pouffe her mum got her for her 30th seems to have gone too!
The giraffe was a freebie wasn’t it? She’s probably sold it.
I really hate how wasteful they are with furniture. She made such a big song and dance about replacing her perfectly nice dining table, which they’d only had for a year! And now the replacement table needs to be replaced because it’s chipped. Same story with the multiple #kindlygifted sofas etc. I guess when you don’t pay yourself you don’t care?
Makes me sick too. Since she did her living room reno she has gotten rid of the Arlo and Jacob snuggler, West Elm rug and giraffe table that were all PR or gifted. She also got rid of the coffee table (again gifted) which she said they were lending to a friend and would get back one day but, honestly, do we think that's going to happen? I really don't think it's good for ones mental health to have so much just given to you, especially for someone like Lily who already feels so entitled.
Also the £300 odd bar cart that is now “in the loft”
I liked it because at least then Lily had some personality and didn't just have plain trendy scandy tit in her home. It was super quirky. I also like her yellow door.I’ve found the giraffe table... it’s, er, different
True. Now it looks like she’s done a trolley dash at H&M (and I love H&M home)
Yeah is free from Amara. Is such a dangerous thing to have around toddler, it doesn’t look steady to me. I think Jojo kindly taken a lot of the old furniture from Lily. I can see the bed throw and the dressing table are from Lily
Totally agree, that's the principle of education in Eastern Europe too.
That's really interesting. My daughter is almost 2.5. I started reading to her before she was born. (I had many baffled looks thrown my way!) She has always loved books and I would say that is the only thing we spoil her with as she has a ridiculous amount.
It’s a skill but is fun too or should be I’m not a Steiner fan.
If she learns her phonics and is read to and therefore picks reading up from you, you’re on to a winner. I’ve worked in primary education for many years. Some in early years and so many children are held back because parents don’t bother. It’s different in other countries but if you’re in the UK, you’re doing the right thing
I’m not a Steiner fan either, I’m just saying, there’s different views on this. And later in life, who cares when you learnt to read or walk or whatever. That all equals out pretty quickly.
You should always read to a child from a very young age. Most parents do this from when they’re born, I think that’s normal.
