Ahhh....the great British summer! It's a time to head for the beach, update our wardrobe with bold, colourful shorts and pack our freezers with ice cream. This is all necessary of course, how else would we be able to enjoy the summer? Well, how about putting a little more effort into the house? We change just about every aspect of our lives when it hits the summer time, from our daily routines to the contents of our fridge. So, why does this not apply to the décor?
Changing things up inside the house can breathe fresh new life into your home. Take a look at these top ideas and see what you could achieve with a few bits and bobs from

Not so long ago, my cleaning cupboard used to be almost overflowing with just about every cleaning product on the market. I had sprays, aerosols and wipes, all especially formulated to do a certain job in different rooms of the house. If the adverts told me that something would make my life easier and my house (and they all say they do) then I would buy it to try...

WE take a look at the top styles for your reception and living areas this autumn 2012 The changing of the seasons often invites an equally reflective change in our outward appearances as well as our interior dwelling spaces. From the practical – blankets, heaters, extra rugs and cushions – to the
aesthetic, in the form of new colour schemes and furniture, autumn is a
classic time to introduce changes into the home.
Today we're taking a closer look at some key looks and styles for this season. We've teamed up with UK Homeware retailers Next to give a brief overview of some key living room looks.
There is a focus on chairs, sofas and reclining furniture. So whether you think October is the time for a new
corner sofa or you are determined to spruce up your existing
sofas and chairs, we hope this article will provide some inspiration...

My brother is painting the nursery on Saturday and I never thought I'd be so excited about almost 50 shades of grey – but I am ! Also speaking of grey, I found this gem in Zara home over the weekend for all my other gems.

I haven't had the best luck in charity shops lately and I almost gave up visiting them altogether, however a few weekends ago I was lured into a nearby shop and found great treats hidden within. My faith in charity shops has been somewhat restored, maybe I should try again this weekend. I should, shouldn't I?
I found a mixture of clothes and homeware, Mr Thrifty would say I need neither but we'll just tell him to hush his gums (down with da yoof or what?) and turn a blind eye to his ever growing record collection. Fair deal huh...

Is your To-Do list getting out of hand? Do you want to save money and avoid stress? Then why not have a 'Power Day'? Write down your ten most hated tasks, set aside half a day, or even just a couple of hours – AND GET THEM DONE! Today is going to be my 'Power Day'. Here is a list of the 10 things I'm going to tackle and why getting them done will save me money, time and stress:
1. Tax Return: It has got to be No. 1 on my list of
horrors! I have to dig out my list of log-ins for the HMRC website, find
all those dull bits of paper that I've (hopefully) shoved in the
creaking at the seams 'tax' folder and scrabble around for dog-eared
receipts...
