I’ve got a little tip thats not so much about a glamorous home but you’ll especially appreciate it you’ve got nice plates or cutlery. Silicone spatula to scrape your plates before you wash up or pop in the dishwasher. It gets any scraps clean off so saves clogging and doesn’t scratch your plates or cutlery.

First thing I do each morning
Open the windows
Do the bed
Clean the toilet and sink
Laundry on if needed
Vacuum sofa and heavy traffic areas.
Sweep outside.

These little jobs keep the place tidy. Housework then doesn’t overwhelm me as a big job.

I have a Shark cordless which isn’t great. I also have a small wand vacuum which is brilliant. I whizz it around the corners of the kitchen units and little areas which helps having to lug out the bigger vacuum.

I painted a lot of my existing wooden furniture . I used f&b paint . My sideboard now looks like one of the Cotswolds company ones . I also had a big dining table which we no longer need .This was sawn in half and the legs re attached and again F&B’d . The effect was so uplifting . I also swear by lots of candles and flowers . We grow masses of sweat peas and they are cut and placed in little glass bud vases . The more you cut the more appear . It saves a fortune in flowers and smell lovely too . Finally as I live in a cottage with little storage I had a fake window seat built with deep drawers and seating on the top . It’s amazing what you can do thinking outside the box !

Love this thank you
 
Which steam diffuser do you have? I was looking at the Neom one but it’s quite expensive!

You always get good deals on the neom diffuser around Black Friday if you wanted to hold out for that one. Although I’m sure there’s other cheaper ones that do the same job I just love mine mostly for the look of it, the light is really pretty and the neom happiness oil is my favourite

What one did you get? Does anyone know if there are big differences between them or are they all kind of similar?
 
Aldi had their own version of the window vacuum cleaner the other day down the middle aisle. Think it was £20 but I didn’t stop to have a proper look. Just a heads up for anyone interested!

The Neom diffuser does look really luxurious! Can you use genetic essential oil blends with it, or can it only be used with its own Neom brand?

Of course they say only use Neom ones but I’ve used others and no problems.
