I SHOPPED. I BOUGHT. #1

Over the summer I wanted to start trying to finish the interior design of our house, since moving in 2.5 years ago we have only finished one room - the dining room! So I started buying some more home accessories and was so excited to finish some more rooms. But then an 'issue' occurred, the house we live in is rented and I kind of forgot this! We got a letter recently telling us we have 2 months to pack everything up and leave :( Part of me is devastated, this was the first home we've set up together but we have been looking for a house to buy for the last 1.5 years without any luck. So I guess we were already planning on leaving this house but I'm sad that the decision has been taken out of our hands. Ah well, so the house hunt has really been stepped up! We've seen a couple of properties in the last couple of days but nothing that suits us. I think we'll end up renting somewhere else before we buy somewhere, there's no point wasting money on a house we don't want.
 
So, anyway before this little 'issue' this is what I'd been buying....

  1. Wow, some great bargains there! We have been on the other end of the 2 months notice (being the landlord) but it did mean we finally got to move into the house we bought 4 years ago - Hopefully you'll find somewhere too and it certainly sounds like you don't lack vision, which will help!

    1. And I've just started following because we're going to need lots of interior inspiration when we start our house build!
