  • good morning.

  • I am actually pretty much ready for the day.

  • It's a Sunday on Dhe.

  • My husband is away.

  • Andi, I've had the weekend to myself and it's been a little bit dream.

  • I'm not gonna lie.

  • I love my husband, but I've had quite nice weekend, just chilling out at home on Dhe, having a bit of me time, you know, it's also been a little bit dramatic.

  • If you follow me on Twitter on Instagram, you might see me talking about Buzz the night that I only left to go on his trip.

  • He worked before AM, walked out of the door and soul one of our cats disappear downstairs and he was like, Okay, And then he looked and he was like, over Our cat is there and the other cat is locked in our bedroom.

  • So who's cat was that?

  • So he came back and he's like, Hey, there's a cat in our house.

  • We'd never, ever had a cat in the house and actually we usually have the cat flap locked, but he kept it on in only obviously, the cats go out in the garden in our grounds on dhe att, The end of the evening.

  • We turn it in only so when they come in, they can't get back out and they go to bed because our cats are on the same sleep cycles us, which is so nice.

  • Sometimes they get a little bit restless in the night, and that's when I am tired.

  • So anyway, he went down the cats in my office.

  • On it was a Bengal cat, literally looked so similar to leave me.

  • It was scary.

  • The only difference was the cat's rosettes were a lot smaller than blew me.

  • So let me has quite big rosettes.

  • These ones were quite small.

  • Obviously, we don't have collars on our cats because a they wouldn't keep the ones that come off on.

  • They just kept losing them on dhe.

  • Second, if you put the ones that say on, they can hurt themselves.

  • So are cats chipped, but they don't have collars.

  • This cat didn't have a collar, and everyone where we live has cats, and we haven't seen everyone's cats.

  • But a lot of them are like Maine coons and like, quite beautiful cats.

  • So we just assumed stupidly that it was one of our neighbors cats.

  • It wasn't on this card after I just tweeted about it.

  • So bizarre, Like all of the places to end up a Bengal cat ends up in our house.

  • So I tweeted about their on Dhe Ali posted a picture that he took of the cap within half an hour.

  • Someone's friend had contacted me to say that they thought that the cat was her friends on basically it.

  • Waas Obviously we'd let him go.

  • She came over to my house.

  • I spent 3 to 4 hours with her trying to find Buzz.

  • We couldn't find him, but I was confident that he was gonna come back.

  • So she ended up going back to work on Dhe.

  • I just was vigilant.

  • Left food in the house on DDE, just kind of waited for him.

  • He came back just before I went out.

  • I couldn't get him in the house, but I let her know she came back to try and find him, but he didn't come out.

  • So what?

  • Is that?

  • How you do that?

  • Close all of the windows, turn the cat flap in, only leave food in there and hope that when I got back from seeing my friends he would be in there.

  • Sure enough, when I opened the door, I had a almighty crash.

  • It wasn't like anything breaking.

  • Or then he did break one of our picture frames.

  • It was one of the medicine balls in the gym falling over, and Buzz was in the house, so she was already asleep less.

  • I was like frantically texting girls.

  • I go, Oh, my God.

  • So he stayed the night ours.

  • He was absolutely fine on.

  • She picked him up in the morning and honesty was the most special thing.

  • I think I've ever seen a CE sooner because we weren't sure if it was buzz.

  • There's a few Bangles that probably got missing.

  • Where?

  • In the local area.

  • On Dhe.

  • She wasn't sure.

  • And when he saw her, I cried.

  • This is the one thing about ankles.

  • They're such special cats.

  • That's why we got two of them.

  • They're a handful.

  • And obviously I know that I was speaking in my last video about me being tired, and I want you guys to know as well that I'm never speaking about being tired in a moaning sense.

  • It's more about I'm just letting you know that if I'm not on my A game right now.

  • It's probably because I'm a little bit tired.

  • I'm not saying I'm more tired than you are.

  • I'm not saying that I'm the most tired person in the world on that.

  • You know, other people can possibly be more tired than me.

  • I'm never saying that.

  • I'm just letting you guys know I didn't have a great night's sleep last night on DDE.

  • I might not be on top form.

  • I'll try because I know that if I didn't tell you in the comments would be like, you seem really often this video, so I always just want to give you a little bit of background on what's been going on.

  • However, in this video I am not tired at all.

  • So I'm gonna be showing you that we've also changed up our whole way a little bit.

  • I loved the stuff that we had there, but I felt like it wasn't I don't know.

  • As other areas of the house came together, we kind of wanted to take a few more risks with things and just do something a little bit different.

  • So some of the stuff has arrived for the whole way.

  • I know that.

  • So yeah, I better get cracking on that.

  • I'm out with my sad place that I'm into the company's, you know, I mean business when I put these bad boys on, so yeah, I know where I'm going with this, but it is quite well use my old basket for everything that's gonna go in this cover it for now.

  • We'll go downstairs, make up there in the drawers down there on DDE That should hopefully make it easier.

  • Oh, my sleeve do so I'm definitely making progress, but not as quickly as I'd hoped.

  • I would definitely be on my utility room by now, but I am definitely not.

  • But I'm still kind of sorting through things I'm reorganizing in here on.

  • Then I've got all of this to sort still any difference in dinner on?

  • I'm so hungry.

  • It's ridiculous.

  • So I'm gonna put some veg in some rice and some fish on have healthy but a big 10 my God.

  • They're, like, straight.

  • So I kind of had to throw a bit of everything together in tonight's dinner, we had some fish in the freezer, some rice and peas on dhe, some roasted course yet Way, way, way, way, way finger.

  • Where since I met you, somehow Russian flushed down a toilet by that took a lot longer than I planned.

  • So echoey in here when there's no not load the like clothes everywhere.

  • But we're done.

  • I've even kind of organized my makeup and stuff like that.

  • So all these drawers are now organizes.

  • This kind of like a tools on dhe wipes, all of the kind of beauty utensils that you can sometimes need, Like hair bands and underwear solutions, tweezers, that kind of stuff.

  • Then I've got some bits and bobs in here that I use kind of like a daily basis and also all of my like, spare brushes and stuff like that.

  • So I've got some lip balms.

  • I mean, this is still a lot of space to be filled.

  • So I'm gonna off as and when add to this little drawer here on then I've organized this spirit.

  • This is awesome.

  • Like new bits that I need to feed in on the other one's a kind of the same as they always are in here on is obviously where most change has happened.

  • These top two shelves are now a lot more organized.

  • I've got that bag on that basket to give to charity, so I need to get that sorted and out first.

  • Before I can kind of give this a bit of an overhaul in here, so yeah.

  • Also, I think I've told you about these flowers.

  • They arrived last week.

  • I got a voucher for my birthday from Ali's dad and step mom.

  • They got me a voucher for artifact flowers, which is basically a foe.

  • Flores tree like florist redesign in.

  • Sorry, it's super expensive.

  • Andi, I really wanted to make sure that I've got the right piece for this room.

  • And I love this.

  • This is one of their standard like designs that you can just buy on their website.

  • But they do, like, bespoke ones that they make especially for you.

  • And I think I'm gonna have a little bit more of their flowers around my house because they just look so amazing.

  • So really, I love them now.

  • This covered over here is still empty.

  • I think I'm going thio.

  • Maybe use this is like a new in storage place.

  • I haven't really decided yet.

  • This cupboard is still a no go.

  • So I've got just some new in PR packages which have come in some Advent calendars and just in bits and bobs.

  • This cupboard can't really have products in it that you can now because the radiator's not on but in the winter.

  • I can't have it cause the radiator is behind here.

  • That comes out of the vent at the top.

  • So yeah, a little bit difficult.

  • Still unsure, my friend Alex said, I should put cashmere in there.

  • It's an idea.

  • So yeah, shutting up shop for the evening, but very, very happy.

  • Now let's try and get the, uh, the utility sort.

  • So it's actually a few days later now, and basically I got quite into the swing of organizing everything, and it got very late, and I ended up staying up way past my bedtime.

  • But I felt like had a really kind of productive evening.

  • I was just I couldn't stop.

  • You won't believe how much talking footage I had to get out of that video.

  • I just was motor mouth absolute most mouth.

  • I kind of wanted to start off by saying like thank you to everyone that watch my last video with my Q and A by spilling my T video.

  • It's not the scariest video out, but it was something that was a little bit nervous about so thanks.

  • Everyone was so kind.

  • So I show you my laundry room on dhe.

  • Show you how that is Now organized on also give you a little bit of a peek into my country as well, and then just show you some bits and also kind of update you on some rooms that I'm still waiting to show you.

  • So we are back in my favorite room in the house.

  • As you can see, a lovely little wicker basket is on the side.

  • And this has just kind of some everyday bits that I didn't obviously have when we did my clean my house of me video.

  • I've got my Eleanor unstoppable fresh.

  • We doing us has to be involved.

  • Yeah, I keep them in this job just cause I think it's a little bit more presentable on that.

  • I've labeled it there.

  • Then I've got some metal wipes for when I need them.

  • This one is for cleaning the bins because I only clean the bins in this sink.

  • The new dish Matic for cat bowls.

  • This is Miser Flora.

  • Mixed spray, which I have privacy mixed up already in the not so poor.

  • Sorry.

  • That's my Eleanor mix on in here.

  • I'm gonna put my floor mix so that I could just pour it into my new mop.

  • So this is just a little bit of a new organization basket here.

  • We have got a new carp into coming in next week who, I'm hoping is gonna do some stuff in here.

  • First of all, I kind of wants them reclaimed wood shelves to go above here to display bits and bobs from the utility room on.

  • Then obviously, I mentioned that this doesn't work on dhe.

  • To be honest, it takes up a load of space, and I think we can be a little bit more efficient.

  • And I don't know whether we actually need this too kind of heat up our clothes because it's nice and warm in here anyway.

  • So I think I'm actually gonna have a bespoke drying rack that folds back so it doesn't get in the way when we're not using it could just fall back to the wall and then it can come down when I need it so it doesn't block are airing cup it.

  • I've had a major reorganized of these two cupboards.

  • This used to be a candle covered on dhe.

  • To be honest, I didn't access that covered nearly as much as I needed to access my eyes, a floor, a stash.

  • So I have now moved all of like mice, Melies and stuff like that into this covered.

  • I did have a clear out as well because there was some fragrances in there that I just would never, ever get around to burning.

  • Andi.

  • I've also used a lot of the winter and autumn candles I was saving from last year.

  • I found them all that I was like, Oh, my God.

  • So I got those out on.

  • I also put some read diffuses out that I'd found hidden at the back.

  • Though it's made a little bit more space in there and I moved to this cupboard.

  • So this cup it is now organized on this is kind of like my smelling his coverage.

  • So in here is my is the Flora collection.

  • What we got here, we've got very, very not my favorite.

  • Actually, this is still from when I'm sampling to find my favorites.

  • Lots of linen.

  • Fresh linen.

  • Fresh is my favorite.

  • That's bouquet linen.

  • Fresh paradise Peach.

  • I didn't really like the summer fragrances that much.

  • Not for you Linky.

  • Come on, get down.

  • Pop it down.

  • No!

  • God!

  • So inquisitive.

  • I also found my white company cinnamon and clove home spray that I must have saved from last year.

  • Obviously, I'm not Marty assist and he doesn't let me whack this out until November.

  • So I've got it poised and ready to go.

  • I got more whites I used on anti bacterials, race and room freshness on.

  • Then I've got my spare is a floor of sprays back there in this one is where I keep all of my like a plug in fragrances in there.

  • Oh, my God, It's so knowing.

  • I went to pound land today and they had wind to spice ones in there.

  • I tried to buy them and I didn't have my card with me, so I couldn't buy them subside.

  • This is a load of like spare cloths and sponges and things like that.

  • And then I've got, like, favorite candles up there.

  • Singles Neil Mzm, Armani's and Dip Take.

  • It's in Joe Malone behind and I think that's a space and came one.

  • That's kind of how organized that cupboard, but these baskets are just loving them.

  • It's so much easier now I don't have to like, root through everything and knock everything over.

  • I could just grab the basket, pull it out and it fits perfectly on.

  • Just rummage in there and then put it away like that.

  • Literally so, so happy with them.

  • So I'm gonna get more for other cupboards in the house as well.

  • But that is kind of like my main two cupboards.

  • That air in there on how it is organized under here is kind of self explanatory.

  • Now, this is just all of our washing stuff.

  • And this was an old fruit bowl that I had, and I now just keep all of these robbery things that I used for the wash when I've also got these unstoppable to try in a lavish in this little display cabinet here.

  • I've also popped one of the baskets in there because I think it adds a little bit of a nice touch to this little cubby hole, and you can put like cloths and washing up things in there so that they're not on show because it's right above the think, which is the debt in the moment inside here.

  • I've not had as much progress as I would have liked.

  • I've only got two baskets left.

  • So we've got Chris on dhe nuts and copy Pod's up there.

  • And then I've got, like, biscuits and snacks in there.

  • And then I got rice in there.

  • Eventually, all of these things that can go in baskets will be in baskets to make them much easier.

  • This guy is following me around everywhere.

  • It's just making organization so much easier.

  • I want to go and get more of these as well so that I can have lots of these little packets gone.

  • I don't like having them.

  • I'd like to get most of these like packets gone and everything into jars.

  • You're acting like you're hungry.

  • You want a few food?

  • Not as much progress in here, but still a little bit and obviously just so much easier when we want a biscuit.

  • The biscuits are there perfect.

  • Probably the room I'm most frustrated about not being able to show you just yet is the dining room.

  • Because I feel like we've been working on it for so long, and it is only missing, like, basically two things Now this all wet for the walls.

  • Three things all works of the walls.

  • A big drug, as you can hear, quite echoey on dhe curtains.

  • The only things that is missing.

  • However, we've had a nightmare.

  • Try to find the rock for this room because it's 300 by 300 I don't know whether you've ever tried to find a 300 by 300 rug that's in either.

  • Well, that's in light grey.

  • Very easy.

  • It's actually really hard, and we found one and I thought had been ordered.

  • And today we found out that it's discontinued and they only do it in Navy blue.

  • The color of these chairs is navy blue, so we don't really want the chairs to blend into the rug too much.

  • So I've come in here.

  • I started just giving you a little bit of a sneak peek of what this room looks like on Dhe.

  • Hopefully, in the next few weeks, we'll get kind of everything sorted in here so I can do my first tour other than my having done my first proper tour my dressing room.

  • Yet I think he's gonna help me film that, and then I want to do it all in here on Dhe.

  • Also my office.

  • Obviously, we're still waiting for things in there.

  • Where do you think he put on the wall than anything?

  • But it's just one of those things that takes a little bit longer than I thought.

  • But I thought I'd come and sit in it because I love this little corner here.

  • And when I put it on my instagram stories, everyone was like, Looks so nice.

  • I love the way the dark wood contrasts with this room.

  • And I also really love the light fixtures, if you can see it.

  • Exits.

  • Yeah, the light fixtures.

  • So cute.

  • But I'm so happy with this room on dhe.

  • I just kind of wanted to finish now, so yeah, but I'd give you an update of what's happening in here as well.

  • The next ream that we are hoping to tackle is this room.

  • This is our living room, and we don't use this room.

  • Ah, whole lot.

  • They had to explain it like there's no reason for us to come in here yet because we've got the sitting area in the kitchen.

  • Hi.

  • Links.

  • Hello.

  • We are hoping Thio soon have permission to put in our fireplace.

  • Hopefully it's gonna be coming soon, but we would love to have a fireplace in and this room at least painted in time for Christmas.

  • I think that's probably asking a little bit too much, but that is what we would like.

  • The plans for this room is a really big stone fireplace to go on that wall.

  • Maybe some cabinets, either side, kind of in the out.

  • We're gonna obviously create an alcove with the fireplace.

  • So hopefully some nice little shelves and bookshelves and cabinets in there.

  • The room is going to be painted in like a really dark blue.

  • I'm thinking Hague blew.

  • That seems like quite a popular option.

  • I think because of the size of this room, it can definitely take it, and it will make it feel cozy.

  • But I always find Navy really nice and smart as well.

  • I don't want to go to trend driven in this room.

  • I wanted to remain quite classic, but I think that that color is going thio make this room feel a lot cozier.

  • So this will be the first room in this house that we don't paint gray, which is exciting.

  • Ali really wants to get new sofas in here.

  • I personally really love these sofas, so I think we're gonna try and see how they look once it's decorated in here.

  • If it doesn't work, though, we will obviously replaced them.

  • But I love them so much.

  • I would be sad to see them go.

  • And we will also be going for a silver much more like brighter, good quality carpet in here so that its soft under your feet This is quite hard wearing this carpet.

  • So we want something a little bit more special, something similar to what we had in our old house And if you remember the carpet But we really went like overboard with the carpet that we got in our old house, It just was so lovely.

  • So I'd love to get something like that in this room to kind of contrast with the Navy walls.

  • So that's the next sort of plan of action.

  • And along with the next plan of action is obviously the kitchen.

  • It's still hasn't been painted, and I've been getting increasingly frustrated with the fact that it hasn't been painted.

  • However, fingers crossed.

  • Tomorrow I get the phone call telling me that they start the following week.

  • Fingers bloody cross because I literally can't wait anymore.

  • If you don't know already, we are going pavilion gray on the cabinets, the war cabinet.

  • So these up here on the's down here and then the center island is being painted in railings, which I am so excited about.

  • I cannot wait.

  • Sorry, my dishwasher is on on.

  • We've just got a new dishwasher because this one, the hinge, was gone, so it used to crash down to the floor.

  • So we replaced it.

  • It's just a little bit noisier than the other one.

  • And we're also going to be doing a new work top something a little bit more statement.

  • So we're going to keep the ones the work tops to the outer walls.

  • Still quite muted on understated, But we're gonna have something a little bit Maur marble, like on the center island.

  • We had to the guy come a measure up for it.

  • It's the same guy that did my dining room table, and he's just so nice.

  • So we are gonna get him to do this as well.

  • So railings on their new worked up here, and obviously this is all going to be painted in Pavilion grey as well, which is just so exciting.

  • The walls are actually going to go white.

  • And so are the ceilings in this area.

  • It will be painted white on dhe.

  • I'm not sure what we're gonna be doing in terms of blinds for these windows.

  • I just I don't know whether we need them.

  • We've never used them in here, so it's Yeah, I'm still We're gonna be getting rid of this pole, and everything's gonna kind of be re passed it in here.

  • So we've taken down the blinds that were on the sides here.

  • Maybe we will go for something.

  • I don't know.

  • I'm not sure.

  • Maybe we'll go for shutters.

  • I don't know.

  • Obviously, we won't have anything on this because it's just pointless.

  • Absolute point is, we never, ever closed them.

  • So it's just yeah, wasted money, in my opinion.

  • And also alleys.

  • Dad's got this exact same kind of set up at his house on they don't have curtains there, so I don't think we need it.

  • This is the new rug.

  • Now this camera always make think makes things look a little bit warmer.

  • This isn't as warm as it looks.

  • I'm looking at it here.

  • It's a little bit more gray and tone, but I think that when everything is painted white and gray to ensure that it doesn't feel too monochrome and just dull.

  • I wanted to have something a little bit warmer in here.

  • So what?

  • That's what.

  • That's why I've kind of brought in some baskets on this rug.

  • This rug is also really nice to walk on on DDE.

  • Not expensive.

  • Well, in the in the grand scheme of rugs for a rug of this size is 200 by 300 on Dhe, it's Yeah, it's just no, hugely expensive.

  • I got it from Wait there.

  • I'll link it down below.

  • It's just a hard wearing, really nice rug, and I like the way it makes it feel a little bit more earthy on DDE.

  • Just kind of dress it down.

  • This is not the coffee table that we're going to have, either.

  • My new coffee table from Sweet Pea and Willow arrives on Monday on.

  • This will go back into the lounge.

  • This is just something that I was trying out.

  • We've got a really beautiful gray coffee table that's slightly bigger than this one to fill this Eric's.

  • I think the marble one was just a little bit too small for this space.

  • We need a little bit more coffee table area, so we've moved the marble one down into the basement.

  • It's good having a house like this.

  • You just move everything around.

  • It's lovely.

  • So that's the update from here.

  • They were down in my office Now on dhe.

  • These two things here are two of the final things I'm waiting on happening in this room so you can see so much of this office now already.

  • But basically this is supposed to go up on this wall.

  • This is my constellations print I told you about in one of my previous logs I got from way fair.

  • I love this so much.

  • It's huge.

  • It's actually I think this is a good side of this wall.

  • I don't think it needs much more going on it.

  • If I'm perfectly honest, this is my huge mirror or my God is so big and this is supposed to go on the wall behind, basically on DDE.

  • It's so much bigger than I realized.

  • So I don't know if it's gonna be able to go on the wall.

  • I'm waiting for a professional to let me know, because the walls down here a tanked.

  • So it's important that we obviously don't ruin those but the's mirrors from India.

  • Jane and I love it so much I'd be gutted if it can't go on the wall up here.

  • I don't really know what where it will go otherwise, but I love it.

  • So I'm just kind of waiting for these last two things that this can't go up on the wall.

  • I'll have to find another mirror.

  • I'm also I've also ordered a floor lamp on dhe.

  • Oh my God.

  • I ordered it from Isabelle Isabel, something or other.

  • And it's those drive in two weeks.

  • Then it was a month, and now it's the end of this month, and I'm just like, Oh my God, when is it going to arrive?

  • So there's a few things still waiting to happen in here, which is also really frustrating.

  • But hopefully it won't be long now until I can give you like a proper tour of this room, because everything's just come together so nicely.

  • Andi, It's such an enjoyable space to be in that.

  • I can't wait to show you it all, even though I know you're probably seeing so much of it already, but yeah, so that is basically it.

  • Kind of like the update off where we're at.

  • We're hoping Thio get a new carpenter.

  • Like I told you, that's gonna come in and kind of get over the things that we've been waiting to have done for so long on dhe Get things moving again and obviously fingers crossed.

  • We get the call tomorrow that tells us that we will be starting painting in the kitchen.

  • Yeah, I will love you and leave you there.

  • Hey, it's probably been quite wordy, and I probably been talking quite a lot in this, but it's been, you know, I wanted to update update you basically.

  • I will see you in my next video.

  • I hope that you enjoyed this one on dhe.

  • Yeah, that just falling all over my words.

good morning.
