Creating a Cosy Reading Nook

A reading nook is something many of us would say is on our dream home wishlist. We’d all like a cosy space where we can relax and read, sipping a nice hot chocolate and enjoying some precious alone time. Ideally, you’d like the walls lined with books, and a nice comfy seat to curl up in. Unfortunately, most of us don’t have the luxury of being able to have a full library at home. You might not even have a box room that you can convert into your own reading room. But, that doesn’t mean that you can’t have a reading nook. There’s nothing to stop you taking a boring and unused corner of another room and turning it into your perfect reading corner.

How to Create a Beautiful Balcony Space

How to Create a Beautiful Balcony Space

Gardening requires a large area of fertile land with the ideal balance of sunlight and shade, good drainage, enough rain and little chance of frost. Right? No! Of course not! Gardening requires two things to succeed: a small space and enough patience to see the possibilities available. Even a window box is enough space to grow a few herbs or flowers.

With a balcony, you may only have a couple of square meters but there are lots of ways to create a fun outdoor space. Adding some colour is always a good start to any outdoor space and even with a small space, you can create a spectacular display. You don’t even have to be into gardening!

So here are a few ways of improving your home and garden.

Making The First Impression of Your House

The first impression of your home can be absolutely vital if you are looking to sell. When we first put our house on the market, we were unable to attract as many viewers as we would have liked. After much thought and discussion, we decided to repaint our children’s bedrooms and declutter as much as we could to make the room look cleaner and brighter.

Many buyers will judge your home by the photos of the house either on property search websites or the estate agent’s brochure, and it can be very difficult to turn around a first impression! There is a lot to be said for a neat and appealing appearance to your home, whether it is a small change or something a little bigger. After we repainted their rooms, it made such a huge difference! We got more viewers to view the house and we were sold within two months.
