National Spring Cleaning Week with e-cloth

In a week’s time commencing on Monday 4^th March 2019, we will be celebrating the National Spring Cleaning Week. This campaign is to inspire and educate everyone to spring clean not just their homes but their lives as well! You may also hear this campaign called the ‘KonMari’ style where you choose joy and complete your tidying adventures!

Cleaning can seem like a mammoth task, but there is nothing better than a clean, streamlined and harmonious home. So let us embrace this annual spring clean with wide open arms!

How To Make Your Bathroom Feel Like a Spa

Whether you have limited floor space or not, nothing can prevent you from feeling Zen in your bathroom. On the contrary, you can now transform your bathroom into your sophisticated, everyday spa and create luxury, serenity, ambience, and cleanliness without needing a major remodel or huge time-demanding undertakings. Below are some ideas to help give the room that was made for self-pampering an enticing spa-like sensation.

Introducing the new Wesco Loft Collection

This new year, if you are after the increasingly popular industrial-style theme, then look no further! The iconic housewares specialist Wesco has recently launched this exciting new collection “Loft” that give kitchen and bathroom accessories a matt-powder-coating finish to give a modern, edgy look.

Clean lines, simple forms and stark contrasts are a must for this minimalist look. The collection’s colour palette of black, white, cool grey and graphite captures this perfectly and add an industrial sharpness.

eufy BodySense Smart Scale Review

These days we understand that there’s much more to being healthy than how much we weigh and to help us to get on track and more detailed health statistics, the eufy BodySense Smart Scale is the way to go. I know that smart scales with Bluetooth are not a new thing in the market, but what I love about this scale is how affordable it is and how smart it looks!

Killer Hacks For Busy Bathrooms

Every room in the house has its own quirk. The living room is where you chill, the kitchen is where you socialise, and the garage is the place to workout when you can’t be bothered going to the gym. The bathroom’s thing is that it’s busy, like super-busy. Whether it’s 8:30 am or 8:30 pm, it’s either occupied or someone is knocking on the door waiting to get in. Where’s the peace people, where’s the peace?

Families tend to have huge arguments because it’s annoying being late for work when your husband is taking a shower. He knows you need to leave the house before 9:00 am yet he decided to go in anyway. And, let’s not get started on the kids who have no understanding of being on time for anything.

Buster Bathroom Plughole Unblocker Review

One of the most common plumbing problems in our home is slow drainage in our shower. As this is the main shower unit that serves our family of four, the bathroom plughole frequently builds up with long human hairs, shampoo solution, toothpaste and other grime inside the pipes! If not dealt with regularly, it will eventually lead to that dreaded full blockage. I don’t think I can handle that!

Insignia Digital LED Shower Head Review

Insignia, the UK’s premier brand for luxury steam and hydro massage showers, has launched a digital LED Shower Head, powered by dynamo technology, to help prevent scalding in the shower. This innovative gadget measures the temperature of the water and displays it through a digital read out and coloured safety lights, giving exact control of the heat of the water.

Ideas for My Dream Bathroom

I was asked to come up with some ideas on what my dream bathroom would look like, so I’m sharing them with you if you’d like a little inspiration. I’m keen on incorporating my background into this room, as an Asian themed space is ideal for creating a calming and inviting atmosphere – while incorporating all the serenity of the most luxurious spa. It’s all about clean lines and minimalism – I love the soothing nature of this kind of look.

Our Family Bathroom Ideabook

We have been living in our home for eight years. We were really happy with the finish of our new build home, but over time, things began to look old and tired. We enjoy home improvement and in these eight years we have redecorated all the downstairs rooms by repainting the walls, including wallpapering some feature walls, and we also had a conservatory built. Upstairs, we repainted our bedroom and added wall murals for the kids. We have also changed various furnishings and accessories for a different look and feel to each of the rooms and also to reflect the fact that the children are growing up.

Picking the Right Floor with Carpetright

Before we had our children, Mr C and I were in the market of buying a new house (our present house) and we had the chance to pick the flooring and the finishing touches as it was a new build house. After living with a young dog, which behaved like a child in many ways, we both understood that having carpet for the whole house is not ideal. There are so many factors to consider when picking the right floor for each room. Carpetright contacted me to discuss how to pick the right floor. These are our thoughts and considerations.

What To Consider When Choosing A New Bathroom Suite

The bathroom is one of the more common renovations in a home. For it’s relatively small size, it can get more than it’s fair share of use by the average family so careful consideration is required when you are considering a new bathroom suite. These are some of the things I would consider if I was redesigning our bathroom.

Inateck IPX5 Water-resistant Speaker Review

Inateck has newly released this model Inateck IPX5 water-resistant bluetooth speaker which features a high-performing microphone! We were very impressed with the clear and uninterrupted communication. I used my phone to call my husband and hid the phone about a metre away from the speaker and spoke to him via the Inateck speaker and it all came through very clearly.

Lets Gone Crabbing at the Seaside

I am excited to work with Gone Crabbing as their range of gifts are very unique and cute too. It is rare to find high-end holiday souvenir shops. The usual souvenir shops tend to have the same stuff, like rock, key rings, postcards, cheap t-shirts etc. Gone Crabbing is totally different! Their clothing design is funky, bright colourful and very unique. They also have crisp cotton tea towels & oven mitts, mugs & coasters, pencils, erasers, badges, fridge magnets and a fun range of cards.

I love Colin the Crab. He is such an adorable orange crab. This is both Mr K and Ms C wearing the red hoodie top – You’re gonna need a bigger bucket!
