Improving your Home with Accent Features

A new year, a new start to this 2019. I am not talking about starting a new relationship but building a new relationship to love your home again. These days, we tend to lead a busy lifestyle juggling and getting the right balance between family and work. This means we tend to overlook the home we live in and there’s always a bit of wear and tear. We don’t realize it until we take a good hard look at our surroundings, especially after a good Christmas break. So here are a few ways of improving your home with accent features.

Add colour to my Garden – After Transformation

I’m taking part in the Garden Goals challenge with Homebase and Mumsnet. This is my second post for the ‘add colour to my garden’ project. Today, I would like to show you what I have done for the three different tasks that we had set out.

As I had mentioned on my first post, I’ve not been happy with my garden since all my lavender plants in my back garden died two years ago. I wanted to create a new border and inject some colour into my garden with plants and shrubs.

Our Entry Kids Capture the Colour Challenge

Following the success of last summer’s photo blogging competition Capture the Colour, Travel Supermarket has teamed up with Venture Photography to launch ‘Kid’s Capture the Colour’, an exciting challenge for children aged 15 or under to get creative and photograph the world around them.

I was the 101st applicant. Fortunately for us however, someone dropped outgiving us the opportunity to get a free digital camera from Travel Supermarket to get my children to capture the colours of red, blue, green, yellow and white while on their summer holidays.

The first photo is the RED colour. This is the shoe house in Wonderland Midlands theme park. My son and I stood on the steps while waiting for everyone to clear off before we took this shot. Luckily, we didn’t need to wait for too long. Inside this shoe there are a lot of children and the old woman. It is based on the nursery rhyme – There was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe.
