The darker days are still here, the weather is horrible so you don't want to go out and that weird time between Christmas and New Year spent inside makes me crave a big sort out. Plus you can burn nearly 120 calories in half an hour hoovering, and nearly 100 calories in half an hour just sorting your wardrobe out. So if your new years resolution is to shed those christmas pounds, January is the ideal time to get spring cleaning your home!</p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Sort out your wardrobe</h3><div>I find one of the places I always end up in a total mess this time of year is inside the doors of my wardrobe - behind those doors is a chaotic stressful mess of jumpers shoved in the bottom when they're too bulky to fit folded up, random dresses haphazardly hanging of the hangers and generally just random stuff like boxes shoved in there when I've had no where else to put it. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgURdJXwtAuaYBqWSmTUSywlAeWXXMikB__SOOnoY2u5NgVAr4BshMrQQOFYp53oCeBwNcGYBAAaDjgpEvC0_TxzjnVqh_mhpYPx7m7LXHakPZwRTcNQ3RafUQqBifFJuW6cn5cgK8zUQ_xPBFQYDe0LZrSkRXGZ_mXwCJygEd9bLUq-FLj2HaBEegs=s6619" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="6619" data-original-width="4413" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgURdJXwtAuaYBqWSmTUSywlAeWXXMikB__SOOnoY2u5NgVAr4BshMrQQOFYp53oCeBwNcGYBAAaDjgpEvC0_TxzjnVqh_mhpYPx7m7LXHakPZwRTcNQ3RafUQqBifFJuW6cn5cgK8zUQ_xPBFQYDe0LZrSkRXGZ_mXwCJygEd9bLUq-FLj2HaBEegs=w426-h640" width="426" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Take the time this January to pull everything out of your wardrobe onto your bed and neatly fold and pack it away. Try things on, charity shop or recycle the things that no longer serve you and your current trends - if you've gain or lost weight over covid don't cling to clothes that fit your old body. Take this as a chance to pass them on to someone who will love and appreciate them.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi8-dcxtca3bY6U2jawMt01FadiGd2EC6KajgMbf0Yz2N-m0qz6QLJi8PVPGVEiDUgmvJ5yg5zLsJWrZBUeu1cetWEJLLZ4RAlXuFtmUmjRzjRCuXFw4OI-pso49nkiBfr2S6TYehT64wnQ05BcZsJQl6H2nNBq09jrMjeZA6wi992mB7PmDOOXNlRD=s6000" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4000" data-original-width="6000" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi8-dcxtca3bY6U2jawMt01FadiGd2EC6KajgMbf0Yz2N-m0qz6QLJi8PVPGVEiDUgmvJ5yg5zLsJWrZBUeu1cetWEJLLZ4RAlXuFtmUmjRzjRCuXFw4OI-pso49nkiBfr2S6TYehT64wnQ05BcZsJQl6H2nNBq09jrMjeZA6wi992mB7PmDOOXNlRD=w640-h426" width="640" /></a></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><b>Deep Clean the Kitchen </b></h3><p>Clean the oven and the splashbacks - if you've cooked Christmas dinner you need to clean up, I know my oven and splashback looked like an absolute warzone after Christmas dinner, in the new year spend some time giving them a full MOT. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgRJtW6SfEGMklGgIgsoL5iNJC31k3IkbBCe_LreUFHXPgwiFgCvj33qDnEIZU1Z59LBYT-leExJoGQpID4r2K7vEK5xJ0i4JU7yqcrcV4MtSIcXrnJhdApLj0MYMx4dWoOE-k9fTST70mhFQxH2XXhsUl0205fA-R4Xx0IRqlsFqT_DZxnbnCQHjYs=s3793" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2525" data-original-width="3793" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgRJtW6SfEGMklGgIgsoL5iNJC31k3IkbBCe_LreUFHXPgwiFgCvj33qDnEIZU1Z59LBYT-leExJoGQpID4r2K7vEK5xJ0i4JU7yqcrcV4MtSIcXrnJhdApLj0MYMx4dWoOE-k9fTST70mhFQxH2XXhsUl0205fA-R4Xx0IRqlsFqT_DZxnbnCQHjYs=w640-h426" width="640" /></a></div><p>Clean the inside and outside of two of the most overworked kitchen appliances – the dishwasher and washing machine.

Toss foods that you know you will never eat; those dusty lentils that have long since expired and spices that have long since lost their flavour just need to go. Did you really think you were going to use that bag of mixed something you got at a farmers market 5 years ago? </p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Unblock the drains </h3><p>All the grease from pots and pans will be clogging your kitchen sink, plus multiple guests will be putting extra strain on your showers and bathtub pipes.

If you have drawers full of unnecessary little bits and bobs, post and spare batteries, or cupboards full of unused utensils, then take this opportunity to get rid of them.

Send those books off to a charity shop to be read by someone who might love them and use the extra space to make your bookshelves the perfect space to show off your interests and treasures beautifully. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhuYLQ3-pXYxKez5n1rOPltTWyqniCwuwH6lmhbIG_52gg9qDStgTS32YVmOcRN_lEXjqcjDPn8e_tWqdOWby_gYWxy7rrDwyeT2YF5z00iIHPHJCKb5Ye2mlYaBlNlEOc9Kvgii99ncTx0IQ4Oz1RaUVi_udG017V7VqcmAuoW-e6-Sc0bBJ1mu_LV=s5823" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="5823" data-original-width="3928" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhuYLQ3-pXYxKez5n1rOPltTWyqniCwuwH6lmhbIG_52gg9qDStgTS32YVmOcRN_lEXjqcjDPn8e_tWqdOWby_gYWxy7rrDwyeT2YF5z00iIHPHJCKb5Ye2mlYaBlNlEOc9Kvgii99ncTx0IQ4Oz1RaUVi_udG017V7VqcmAuoW-e6-Sc0bBJ1mu_LV=w432-h640" width="432" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div>Consider adding strip lights to your bookshelves to really highlight your collections and make a feature out of them.

You do not need to have dreadful plastic skeletons, synthetic cobwebs or plastic spiders littering your home. </div><div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-size: xx-small;">SKULL ART SCULPTURE / WALL ART - Deliciously Rich Interiors @BRAVE BOUTIQUE, £2500, by BRAVE BOUTIQUE, www.braveboutique.co.uk</span></div></div><div><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Halloween Side Table Decoration, by Lights4fun, www.lights4fun.co.uk</span></div><h3 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Autumnal Adult </span></h3><div>As those misty autumn nights draw in and a chill starts to take hold bringing a touch of autumn colours inside will make your home feel like a warm welcoming place to settle into. Chunky knitted fabrics and warm woollen blankets are the order of the day when designing an interior to feel like an autumnal paradise, golden accents that mimic the wonderful golden light you only get at this time of year and of course, your colour palette is so important to create this look. Rich ochre, dark umbers, and enticing sage greens are all perfect additions to styling an autumnal interior that is grown up and luxurious. </div><div><br /></div><div>Using leaves sparingly, in print as art on the walls or in the print on your blankets will help tie the look together bringing the outside in. This is a season where you begin to spend far more time indoors so make sure you keep as many natural elements as possible to create a comforting place to relax.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifRlztDdk7xz3ILkRZw5qkdgr_x2oWPg2tszkBF6zPVZ40_YKz6UIdBTaZqKwm57iS7je9nxRA4XojvbGnqmAMAwIWtSt4yoI00oi1gASeL7c5FjH0P1KWJCGo9Rx56OYSkrnhXFNlwbs/s2048/Untitled+Design++030921+1.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="collage of red, orange and leafy halloween fall decor" border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifRlztDdk7xz3ILkRZw5qkdgr_x2oWPg2tszkBF6zPVZ40_YKz6UIdBTaZqKwm57iS7je9nxRA4XojvbGnqmAMAwIWtSt4yoI00oi1gASeL7c5FjH0P1KWJCGo9Rx56OYSkrnhXFNlwbs/w640-h640/Untitled+Design++030921+1.png" title="Fall decorating in orange and white" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Antique White Pumpkin Table Decoration, £19.99, by Lights4fun, www.lights4fun.co.uk</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Jellycat Woodland Maple Leaf, £14, by Whippersnappers Retail Ltd, www.whippersnappersonline.com</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">THE FLOWER BED SOCKS £60 WWW.VELVETLINEN.CO.UK , £60, by VELVET LINEN, https://www.velvetlinen.co.uk</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Autumn Moodboard - Earthy Neutrals - AW21 - Main - Portrait, by Furniture And Choice, www.furniturechoice.co.uk</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Mottled Brass Pumpkin Decorations, £34.99, by Lights4fun, www.lights4fun.co.uk</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Autumn Oak Wreath , £44.99, by Dobbies, www.dobbies.com</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Sweater Weather Stoneware Mug, £16.99, by The Interior Loft, www.theinteriorloft.com</span></div><h3 style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: large;">Pulled back and Perfect </span></h3><div>Halloween interior decorations do not have to be big bold and plastic, you can really simplify your decor without taking out the fun of the season. Ceramic or glass pumpkins add a touch of grown-up sophistication to a pared-back minimal Halloween table display, while little pops of orange in the furnishings and accessories like candles can pull together an autumn look that feels a bit more mature. </div><div><br /></div><div> While appearing all innocent greenery is ideal for setting the mood of pretty Halloween decor. Imagine a beautiful castle tangled with vines or a dramatic venus flytrap to set the mood. White pumpkins contrast beautifully with eucalyptus leaves to make a wonderful wreath for your front door, welcome in the season without filling your house with ghosts and ghouls. Warm velvet fabrics help create a cosy feel without the need for chunky knits and heavy wools, this look has a light airy almost Scandinavian feel to it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_MXD9-UGaKYhOYDnWPpehG0vo4TwfEwjhsbLzbT1G0PNc-VgrfHDGkgB0dJx2kHxv6Ct8GWIiAbeHrmJaO06ymTMNLvS_AIYiLx5Ms5f3DpsLpB1s3ETXxtKiHI3oJ7rhVYUv5v5Z-gY/s2048/Untitled+Design++030921+2.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="minimal halloween decor white, soft leaves and metallic accents with orange velvet" border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_MXD9-UGaKYhOYDnWPpehG0vo4TwfEwjhsbLzbT1G0PNc-VgrfHDGkgB0dJx2kHxv6Ct8GWIiAbeHrmJaO06ymTMNLvS_AIYiLx5Ms5f3DpsLpB1s3ETXxtKiHI3oJ7rhVYUv5v5Z-gY/w640-h640/Untitled+Design++030921+2.png" title="Simple collage of halloween decorations" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Sevilliana Sofa | Orange, $8700, by KOKET, bykoket.com </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Autumnal Baking White Ceramic Pumpkin Lifestyle, £16.99, by Lights4fun, www.lights4fun.co.uk</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Autumn Place Setting Antique White Mini Pumpkins, £32.99, by Lights4fun, www.lights4fun.co.uk</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Autumn Pumpkin Wreath and Garland, by Lights4fun, www.lights4fun.co.uk</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Angula Pouffle, £82.99, by Wayfair, Wayfair.co.uk</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Paddywax Twisty Taper Candles - Golden, £10, by Paddywax, www.paddywax.com</span></div><h3 style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: large;">Gothic Yet Gorgeous </span></h3><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">If you can't embrace the gothic during spooky season when can you?

Is it doomed to fall out of favour again? - I don't think so! When I worked at the wallpaper company Sanderson and one of the most popular and timeless prints they produced was Dandelion Clocks - this instantly recognisable wallpaper pattern can be found the world over and it really highlights the pared minimal style of midcentury, a fun nostalgic interior that is simple but still stylish. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUahcEsGr7jD-Wc-IXdIrv7IKHwasGdC-VQSyhqpjSjF_-Rlo4eUPExFelM_WFHmVfOQL6OhUBdcdd6Qz-2BSWZ3gERCJvaNvmnZwNV4a0RfAGXSVta4IIM5K7zKEzAJ9lyx7wS3xrgU8/s1200/All+These+Interiors+Retro+Interiors+Pin+Image.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="Pinnable graphic - headline how to style a midcentury interior" border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="800" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUahcEsGr7jD-Wc-IXdIrv7IKHwasGdC-VQSyhqpjSjF_-Rlo4eUPExFelM_WFHmVfOQL6OhUBdcdd6Qz-2BSWZ3gERCJvaNvmnZwNV4a0RfAGXSVta4IIM5K7zKEzAJ9lyx7wS3xrgU8/w213-h320/All+These+Interiors+Retro+Interiors+Pin+Image.png" title="how to graphic" width="213" /></a></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Keep things relatively minimal </h3><div style="text-align: left;">Minimal ornamentation is needed to truly pull of this style - with the bold colours and fondness for geometric shapes the style just looks crowded if you over decorate the space.

Kidney shaped tables and statement chairs are an easy way to create this look. For patterned items such as wallpaper, accessories or fabrics retro futurism shapes such as starburst patterns and geometrics where also incredibly popular at the time and can bring an interior to life. Bold florals - like that that Orla Kiely creates are also incredibly evocative of this style. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJ3Vc-Whqnzhi25Rz2lnp3jx1RzX3IbmTMuunUjIbcmxO5kHF9xH-HIp_dKtizfqJcAsnCn9K1bLYcOCL93VnWdJhPHsyf4-osQexbP-kskwklGlksyNn3Yrxo_OZwch-r-R62DsnhnGA/s2048/Midcentury+shapes.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="collage of midcentury interior design elements chair, tables, vases and patterned cushsions" border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1859" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJ3Vc-Whqnzhi25Rz2lnp3jx1RzX3IbmTMuunUjIbcmxO5kHF9xH-HIp_dKtizfqJcAsnCn9K1bLYcOCL93VnWdJhPHsyf4-osQexbP-kskwklGlksyNn3Yrxo_OZwch-r-R62DsnhnGA/w290-h320/Midcentury+shapes.jpg" title="midcentury interior design inspirational elements" width="290" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Chair - <a href="https://tidd.ly/35R4EJY" target="_blank">Cox & Cox</a></span></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Table one - Unknown</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Patterns - Wish</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Table two - <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/boRyI" target="_blank">Safavieh</a></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Owl Glassware - <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/boRAK" target="_blank">Magpie </a></span></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Pick your palette </h3><div style="text-align: left;">Select your colour theme carefully, this can make or break your look, mixing and matching too many bold colours - which are a characteristic of this style can look unsightly but keeping to a subtle palette can make a real statement.

For a mid-century styled room in particular coloured or opaque objects can really help achieve the look, I'd advise using vases and lights as a great way to incorporate glass into your interiors without adding clutter.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4Cqt1xqCDBjKkOAIWI_5LmRmlFn469nih_BaZcjM9o95xgXM1vCgLozj2fNxtvItDocefwSdPrxzR4-ZlI-6vy0pv-ogLFWZdhnQ10AhoEesNE5_y2PHxrP-urH1HBjYhI5XgKY9v3Qw/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1080" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4Cqt1xqCDBjKkOAIWI_5LmRmlFn469nih_BaZcjM9o95xgXM1vCgLozj2fNxtvItDocefwSdPrxzR4-ZlI-6vy0pv-ogLFWZdhnQ10AhoEesNE5_y2PHxrP-urH1HBjYhI5XgKY9v3Qw/w300-h400/image.png" width="300" /></a></div><br />There were many different types of glass made from the 1940s through the early 1970s, the midcentury design has a very distinct vibe that is instantly recognised by its tactile organic shapes, globed curves and almost artisanal style. Popular colours are Amber, Green and Blue which can brighten up a room and add a bit of fun to your interior. Mid-century glassware reproductions or inspired pieces can be picked up in most department stores or if you’re willing to hunt for something a little more unique you can trawl charity shops or Etsy for pieces that suit your home. </div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Natural and non-natural materials </h3><div style="text-align: left;"><div>Natural materials such as wood, cotton and linen, even living plants in beautiful ceramic pots are a good way to mimick this look. Furntiure with curved or statement wooden legs is one of the best ways to add elements of texture into you midcentury inspired room. Macrame or paper art such as stylised prints or patterned wallpaper is also an option for adding a bit more complexity to the style of your room. </div><div><br /></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_kOz_Gugd3a-eGPy5qMbxOkqxLg4a4F0rBe_fL86c5YmACvWH85bpUzMejZ9yOXHXg5gXMrakNYhR9cVsPkB6vKJqpAgj9fvbeS5mNMYSKUzEXDWe6-I_EiHnVpjjeToBtoRll5odaNc/s2048/artyom-kabajev-OSdMOpfDPwc-unsplash.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_kOz_Gugd3a-eGPy5qMbxOkqxLg4a4F0rBe_fL86c5YmACvWH85bpUzMejZ9yOXHXg5gXMrakNYhR9cVsPkB6vKJqpAgj9fvbeS5mNMYSKUzEXDWe6-I_EiHnVpjjeToBtoRll5odaNc/w400-h266/artyom-kabajev-OSdMOpfDPwc-unsplash.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWigDNGSayKnkLgNQkB7oNWdM2U7ZxDhiW0ckIzYScM7-VlPAtMyRyTLd41Lt5kFx84mvMwzWMRqO37mCznE6rmT0hvk5Jkzh8YNmRVge0QH1GCjfhmywydhkTuiZNujicivB55IXCCgE/s2048/charles-loyer-QN6fCROYdWM-unsplash.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Midcentury dining suit with bench seat in olive fabric and wooden vinyl flooring" border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWigDNGSayKnkLgNQkB7oNWdM2U7ZxDhiW0ckIzYScM7-VlPAtMyRyTLd41Lt5kFx84mvMwzWMRqO37mCznE6rmT0hvk5Jkzh8YNmRVge0QH1GCjfhmywydhkTuiZNujicivB55IXCCgE/w400-h266/charles-loyer-QN6fCROYdWM-unsplash.jpg" title="olive midcentury interior" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Non-natural materials such as concrete, cermaics, vinyl and chrome all feature heavily in looks from the time as well.

<h3>
Decorating with Ochre</h3>
<div>
There is more to this gorgeous shade than the immediate association with the 1970's and dark wood styles. Ochre has been used as a decorative pigment for as long as humans have been painting! Originally it was made out of clay containing colourful minerals. This heritage shade is the perfect addition to any modern home but it does take a keen eye for design to stop it being dominating in your interior. </div>

Complimentary colour combo Ochres earthy twin Terracotta. This can create a simple, understated style and honest home that feels relaxed and comfortable rather than overly minimalist. A richly layered look that is perfect for creating an artisan-style home. Textures such as a woollen blanket and tactile woven fabric art would be the perfect addition to this interior scheme.</div>

Just as you might decorate a room in black and white use the same design sensibilities to decorate in ochre. Combining ochre with other colours is not as complex as it may feel, don't be intimidated by this gorgeous shade it can be softened by pairing it with pale greys or be dominated by dark colours to soften its punchiness. </div>

While Ochre is a powerful colour in its own right, it coordinates well with many other hues and these rich jewel shades complement it beautifully. This look works best in rooms with plenty of natural light and playful furniture so that the statement is fun - not overwhelming. I would shy away from using wallpapers in these colours and opt to keep prints and patterns to a minimum to keep the look cohesive.<br />

I believe my obsession with a well-scented home started in childhood, I can remember walking into the ashy dead air in my chain-smoking grandparent’s house and feeling like utter filth, leaving and smelling like their house was so gross. I was determined to live in a place where people walk in, breath in, and feel invigorated. That feeling you get when walking through the bedroom door into a swanky hotel of fresh flowers, clean air and daily housekeeping. Its that time of year post-Christmas where you just want to make your home feel welcoming and bright - so time to spring clean your scents! Here are my 8 top tips for making your home smell better, without too much effort...<br />

<h3>
Simmer potpourri on the stove</h3>
Dusty old potpourri in weird little crystal and metal bowls that haven’t been changed in about a thousand years is definitely not going to make your home smell great. I can remember one of these weird urns of potpourri in my grandparent’s house that was older than myself that had been there so long it had effectively become a cigarette smoke sponge and was just vile, the smell alone would put you off smoking for life.
A much better alternative to potpourri is simmering some lovely things on the stove to make your house smell amazing. This will have your entire home smelling great in no time at all, all you need to do is simply take a saucepan to fill it halfway up with water and chuck in your favourite combination of great smelling ingredients such as herbs, fruits and spices.<br />

<br />
Bring the water to a boil and then reduce the heat down to the lowest heat setting and simmer, with the lid slightly off, making sure to top up the water every now and then (you want to keep the magic going for as long as you can!). Bare in mind that you do need to keep an eye on the pot, so don’t do this when you plan to leave the house. I like to set a timer to check on the simmering potpourri roughly every 30 minutes to see if I need to add water or see if I need to turn it off.<br />

Cleaning products are what we use all around our homes, and they can make a real difference to how nice our home smells. Choose ones that you love to use and that have a great smell can really make a difference. Natural cleaning agents often have scents like mint, beeswax, orange, lemon and rosemary which creates a much fresher home than smelling of generic cleaning fluids. At the moment I am loving the Method range of cleaning products as they are all-natural – especially their grapefruit spray cleaner.<br />

<h3>
Deodorize the plastic interior of your fridge</h3>
Fridges can easily smell funky if you’re not careful about upkeep and there are few things grosser than opening a stinking fridge in someone else’s house and knowing that bacteria is infecting the food they’re going to feed you.
Take a paper towel, dampen it with a little water and dip it in vanilla extract, then wipe down the surfaces of the fridge with the paper towel. This will help neutralize odours in the plastic and leave your fridge smelling amazing. I know it seems a little mad rubbing brown vanilla extract all over clear plastic but I promise this method won’t stain the fridge.
If you want to stop the air from smelling the best thing to do absorb odours floating around the fridge, add a bowl of baking soda to absorb the bad smells and consider adding some vanilla balls.<br />

<br />
Add a few cotton balls to a small bowl, and soak them in a little vanilla extract. Place the balls in your fridge in the egg holder for a fresh waft of vanilla when you open the door, don’t forget to change out the cotton and vanilla every couple of weeks. You can also put a cup of bicarbonate soda in your fridge to absorb bad smells.<br />
<h3>
Clear your carpets</h3>
Carpets are such a hard-working area of the home, not only do they get walked all over, they are constantly catching everything that falls to the floor. From hair to makeup to pet dander these things all add to the overall scent of your home<br />

To remove smells for from the carpet you really can’t go wrong with using baking soda. Baking soda is one of my top used cleaning products and for good reason. This really cheap and powerful powder works a charm to absorb odours in no time at all. Sprinkle it on your carpet or upholstery; leave it for around 30 minutes then vacuum it up. This will draw dirt out and remove odours.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
TOP TIP – One of the best ways to remove dirt from your carpets is to take a slightly damp squeegee, like the kind you use to clean your windows with, and scrape it across the surface of your carpet and you will discover all the nastiness that's lurking in even the cleanest of carpets.</div>

<h3>
Candles</h3>
I know this may seem obvious but candles are perfect for making your home smell amazing but there is one caveat- don’t be cheap. Cheap candles smell like melted crayons and nobody wants a home to smell like the inside of a child’s pencil case. A good candle should smell beautiful and fragrant even when not lit, I keep searching for a replacement of a candle I had by Elise Som because I had a sample size one of these from London Design week, in a scent, I don’t know the name of, and I swear it kept my home smelling beautiful for over a year. You only needed to light it for about 10 minutes for it to make the whole house smell like an incredible high-end art gallery, I sat it on the window in my hallway where it would make the entire hallway smell gorgeous all the time even though I rarely lit it. Even though they might seem expensive, a high priced candle is definitely more cost-effective than one that’s cheap and cheerful.<br />

TOP TIP – Always use candles that are made from natural wax as they burn with less soot so create far less dust and give off a much more natural scent.</div>
<br />
<h3>
Banish the dust bunnies!</h3>
I know a lot of these tips are basically just clean and have nice smelling things in your home but it really is that simple. Dust is made up of skin flakes, hair, fabric dust, pollen, ash, faeces plaster, sand and all sorts of other grossness, so it's hardly surprising that the more dust you have about your home the more likely it is going to smell well musty.<br />
<br />
There will be some places of hidden horror in your house I guarantee it, every single home I’ve ever moved into has had a thick layer of grease and filth on top of their kitchen cupboards. It’s one of the first places I clean when moving into a home because I hate the idea of decomposing grease wafting out into the air. Other areas that are all too neglected are the stairs, baseboards and around your bed.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<script async="" src="//widgets.shopstyle.com/shopstyle-widget-snippet.js"></script>
TOP TIP – Mix some fabric conditioner and water in the sink and then wet a cloth with the mixture. Wring the cloth as dry as possible and then use this to wipe all your skirting boards, door frames and radiator. The fragrance is lovely and the static created by the fabric conditioner will collect dust like nobodies business.</div>

<h3>
Let in the air</h3>
Short and simple - the fastest way to a fresh-smelling room is by cracking open your windows and letting fresh air in. Rather surprisingly unless you live near a busy road or some sort of grim industrial area, the air inside your home is actually far more likely more polluted than the air outside. I know gross right but this is due to things like mould and pollen just hanging about in the enclosed space of your home. Make it a priority, whenever possible, to open your windows.<br />

<br />
<h3>
Make it feel like home - don’t over sterilise</h3>
I know I’ve basically spent an entire article explaining how to clean so that your home doesn’t smell bad but, unless you’re like me and go mad for the smell of bleach, most people don’t like the smell of an overly clean home. If you want to make your home smell stunning without cleaning you can simply make it smell of food. Try your hand at baking bread which is one of the most welcoming smells in the world, or why not try putting the slow cooker on before you leave in the morning so it is full of something delicious when you come in from work and your home you will smell delicious from the moment you open the front door.<br />
<br />
Another way to make your home smell great without cleaning is to bake things in the oven, this doesn't just mean cookies it can be something decorative, one thing I love to do is dry slices of oranges in the oven to make the entire house smell like Christmas and you can use them as beautiful decorations over the festive period.<br />

Make a festive entrance with beautiful Christmas wreaths and garlands, perfect for hanging above the fireplace, on walls, doors, in windows and adorning your Christmas table. You’ll be spoilt for choice with decorating styles so hopefully, this post will help inspire you and help you find the perfect style for you. As you can choose from classic wreaths decorated with pine cones and bright winter berries to brightly coloured modern illuminated wreaths. To capture that festive magic, make sure the first thing your guests see is a beautiful festive wreath on the front door.<br />

There is no reason to reinvent the wheel - a simple traditional wreath will be as impactful as an elaborate colourful wreath. Consider coordinating a ribbon to the front door colour so there is a little pop of interest in an otherwise minimalistic style.<br />

But if bold is more your style create a colourful entrance with a vibrant floral wreath, complete with sprouting branches, pine cones and vivid red berries or even Quality Stree inspired colours. Elaborately decorated with coloured lights, ribbons, pom poms, wires and baubles, this very extra wreath style is perfect for bringing an in your face statement finish to your home this festive season. You will be having so many guests you might as well go all out when buying a wreath - I’m a big believer in bigger is better.<br />

Feathers, as a country girl at heart I can’t help but be utterly in love with pheasant feather colours at Christmas if you want a real showstopping front door a sunbeam ring of pheasant feathers is certainly going to hit the spot. If you don’t want to go all out on a country-style you can add a couple of feathers to a more traditional wreath to help add shape and interest without being totally shoot inspired.<br />
<br />
Whether you pick pom-pom, floral or traditional if you want a truly unique Christmas Wreath the best way to achieve your own personal style is for you to make your own bespoke Christmas wreath! Find everything you need to create a handmade wreath to brighten your front door or Christmas table.<br />

A new one on me this year which I’m a little bit in love with is minimal metal wreaths. They are so modern and chic without being cold, these stunning gold wreaths definitely bring a new take to a festive front door decor. If you have a more modern exterior I’d really recommend trying a modern wreath this season as this simple yet contemporary style will complement and post 1920’s home. You can add some eucalyptus leaves to add an extra statement.<br />

Or if you’re looking for something that is outlandish and impactful you could go for a Door Bow - a trend I rarely see outside of my native Liverpool where it is a yearly occurrence. These outstanding brightly coloured bows proudly line the streets making homes look like wrapped up presents. For the cost of a large length of organza fabric and a bit of fiddling, you can create a really cute Christmas welcome.<br />

When styled in the right way pink can look seriously stylish without being overwhelmingly girly - being bold with these statement colours can create a really beautiful home. </span></span></span><br />

This livingroom by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/northernletterboxsociety/" target="_blank">@northernletterboxsociety</a> shows just how beautifully Pink and Navy interiors can look. The dark walls stand out against the lighter pink alcoves, using pink to draw the eye and create a sense of space when contrasted against rich deep blue is such a smart use of colour. Accessorising the room with sumptuous velvets creates a warm and welcoming look, while plant life adds a charming sense of vibrancy to the look. I'm utterly in love with the blush pink velvet tub chair, which evokes serious style credentials -Doesn't it just look so inviting? </div>

<span style="font-family: "quicksand"; font-size: 14px;">If you’re keen to dive into the dark side and drown your walls in deep azure shades you need one be brave and to think it through very very carefully as not all rooms can take dark shades without being dreary first, you must consider how much natural light comes into the room and if there is enough space for the walls to draw away. If you’ve got high ceilings or tall windows, you can sink into the inky shades as deep as you like, but if space is small I would shy far away from dark colours if you're not 100% committed to the look. So keep that in mind when you’re choosing how dark to go. </span><br />

Hints of pretty tones of blush pink, fuchsia, and lilac would also work as an accent colour. </span></span></div>

You shouldn’t be afraid of the dark, these moody blues create a sense of luxe especially when combined with shiny accents. To add a beautiful golden touch with metallic accessories, they’ll catch the light and add a touch of light to the room which is so important with any dark interior. It’s important to add light to create a sense of balance in the room and stop it from looking gloomy. Instead of having a dark wall you should consider accessorising with Dark blue and dusky pinks with large areas of neutrals such as a rich warm grey or earth tone.<br />

<br />Rich navy mixes beautifully with pale pinks and light grey accents to create a charming colour combination. Layer with sumptuous velvets accents and a sheepskin rug to give to an inviting tactile style. This colour palette does lend itself to a huggee sort of style, pair with midcentury furniture and Scandinavian accents to bring a touch of light to your dark spaces. This dusty pink adds a sense of femininity without being girly, it is a dramatic grown-up colour combination. and drama of navy walls. when used with a punchy navy, this romantic pink shade acts as the neutral - which creates an interior of pure class.<br />

Crunchy leaves, frosty mornings and the clocks going back. Woo hoo Autumn is here and it brings back to the shops some my favourite things Pumpkins. Big ones, little ones, orange ones, white ones, big old boggley ones I love them all! And I love using them around the home to make the place feel all cosy and autumnal.</h3>

Pumpkins are perfect for creating a warming welcome as the nights start getting colder, I always find it quite a good cure for seasonal blues to come home from work to a selection of big fat pumpkins on the doorstep, I think there is something so cheerful about a harvest welcome. They don't all have to be gigantic Gordes you can line a little row of teeny tiny pumpkin sentinels on your window sills for a cute little display. I also adore a wreath, they're not just for Christmas one made of leaves and wheat can make a beautiful statement on the door of your home. Autumn is after all the starter to Christmas.<br />

Pumpkins can look particularly beautiful when paired with flowers as they create a lovely textural contrast. A large bunch of flowers can always brighten an interior and turn a randomly placed pumpkin in a beautiful display. This time of year I would recommend having a nose is a local church or two to see how they've done their harvest displays for autumnal inspiration.<br />

Don't be afraid to put your pumpkins on the dining table, they can make a really stylish table setting, beautiful bowls or even a tasty soup to warm the soul. Whether it's swapping the fruit bowl for a bowl of cheerful pumpkins or a stylish contrast of dark table cloths and white pumpkins you can't really go wrong with using pumpkins around the dining room.<br />

You can't go wrong with a classic and carved pumpkin, not only is it super fun to make them it just really brings those Halloween vide to you home. They don't just have to go outside you can display them on bookcases and mantles for an eye-catching effect inside the home. How stylish do these Nightmare Before Christmas themed pumpkins look displayed on a painted Ikea step?<br />

As I said earlier creating a harvest festival display rather than a typical childlike Halloween display can really give you a sense of season and style. Having a harvest festival style centrepiece with sheaths of wheat and dried coloured corn cobs is a gorgeous way to bring autumn into your interiors. </div>

If you can't be bothered to deal with the mess of carving a pumpkin you might find it easier to try your hand at a painted pumpkin. They can be super simple and cute or detailed as your skill level allows. There is a downside to this though as once painted I would not recommend putting these pumpkins in the compost as paints can contain contaminants. </div>

If like me you're a fan of the slightly macabre Halloween is the perfect season to bring your sinister side to your home decor - consider adding some taxidermy or a skull or two to a mantlepiece laden with pumpkin and dried flora. For this look, I would advise against actually using real candles as you'll end up with a pile of tinder on your mantle. You can get<a href="https://amzn.to/2BKvbJ2" target="_blank"> flameless candles on Amazon</a> and they've really improved in recent years and well worth investing it - they're also really good if you've got curious pets.<br />

<span style="text-align: center;">Stacks and stacks of them! Pick a few short, wide pumpkins for a charming display. You can either leave them as they are or stack them on an urn laced with spooky spiderwebs or use black chalk-based paint to paint messages onto them for a welcoming porch display. You can also glue them together if you are worried about them toppling over. If you've got too many to stack you could just fill a basket with them for a fun effect. </span><br />

One of the best parts of decorating in autumn is bringing into your interiors all those dramatic oranges and reds of the season. But if you're looking for a change, try matching candles, foliage, and other elements to white (or green) pumpkins Halloween decor doesn't need to be all bright orange and black you can make a real statement with monochrome pumpkins. A tray filled with white pumpkins surrounding white candles looks minimalistic and grown-up but still brings all the joy of the Halloween season into your home. If you can't find pumpkins in the colours you want you can always spraypaint them to get this effect.<br />

Just have stacks of them about the place, honestly does it not just fill you with joy? How will you be decorating with pumpkins this autumn? </h2>

One thing I would always recommend when bringing pumpkins inside to put them on a plate or a tray - pumpkins can be fickle buggers some will stay fresh for ages and some will turn as soon as you turn your back on them. At least if you put your pumpkins on a surface that can be easily cleaned, you can carry your grim slimy pumpkin to the compost without having to peel a layer of yuck of your window still. </div>

<span style="color: #1c1e29; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When my Mim did the 'Build A Tiny House' course offered at C.A.T, she came home with one piece of advice - 'you need to go, you neeeeeeeed to go, it doesn't matter that course, any course! You just NEED to go to C.A.T'. So I signed up to the 'Build a Natural House' course as unfortunately the one I originally wanted to do 'Sustainable Building Techniques' was fully booked for the full year, so instead I waited 8 months for my second choice...</span></h4>

<span style="color: #1c1e29; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Over the course of a week, the main focus is on timber frames, straw bale building and hempcrete building but you will also learn everything else that goes along with building a natural house from laying foundations to plastering the walls to putting a roof on, meeting building standards and more. It is a super speed very comprehensive dive into the world of natural building, they assume you have no construction skills so even a total novice will feel comfortable and respected - Carwyn will literally answer any question you have and is an excellent teacher. I would describe this course as a smorgasbord of techniques and information, unlike the Tiny House course where you could with some confidence build a garden room at the end of it, this one I feel opens the door to even more ideas. This course is a perfect starting place to highlight the skills you need to learn in-depth to be able to build an actual building that will stand the test of time. </span><br />

<span style="color: #1c1e29; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I went in with no real expectations as they don't tend to give out course itineraries or organise themselves in a strict structure, rather the timings seem fluid mostly lead by the skills of the group. Not being overly organised meant we each walk around the site to look at natural builds on-site was eye-opening as we realized the interesting things we'd been walking past each day without considering - whereas if things had been in a strict itinerary I feel like things wouldn't have had such a natural flow. </span><br />

<span style="color: #1c1e29; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You are thrown into the deep end with building with Strawbales and Hempcrete, and you learn so much about insulation and waterproofing by the end of the week your brain will be undressing every building you see. The reading list at the end is a monster because you'll just want to get on and build! I went in expecting to be totally drawn to Bale building as that was what I was particularly interested in but discovered I'm utterly in love with Hempcrete, it is seriously magical stuff! I'll do another post about explaining the wonders of it but just know this - its the future!</span><br />

<span style="color: #1c1e29; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Arriving at C.A.T is like entering another world. Hidden away in the hills of Wales up a slate track you find a menagerie of eco-builds, surrounded by interesting smells of moss and fresh untreated wood this higgledy piggeldy fairy tale kingdom has some seriously techy credentials and real design aspirations. The accommodation is minimal - white and natural wood with big windows and interesting views, though the dark dated bathrooms could have benefited from the same level of care as the bedrooms cheap mass-produced dark blue tiles and red lino is a bit jarring compared to the beautiful natural rooms. While overall comfortable some aspects of the design could have been better thought out, such as having the windows on the other side of the building to view the woodlands and slate rather than the roof of the centre and face the other bedroom windows. For a place that has won architecture awards and teaches architecture, you would have thought having unfrosted windows to the guest toilets at head height on the only walkway to the bedrooms would have been reconsidered... If you're exhibitionist you'll love it! </span><span style="color: #1c1e29; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">A common trend you'll find is that there is a history of can-do have a go eco builds around the site which flies in the face of their measure, measure and measures again ethos they teach on their courses, though I suspect this is a relatively recent ethos as when you get shown the now falling down experimental builds they often begin their descriptions with 'That was a student build experimenting with ...'</span></div>

The gardens and exhibits are endless, filled with insects and birdsong - an eco hippy haven. The food is delicious, good for the soul honest food - all-vegetarian fair but even the most carnivorous of us don't need to worry as you don't miss having meat as the flavours are so varied and after a hard day of dragging straw bales about you will be ready for your dinners!</span><br />

Which while touring toilets doesn't exactly sound a fun way to spend an afternoon and you might get a few odd looks as a group of you spill out of the composting toilet. I would 100% recommend taking them up on the offer of a poke around the facilities. The process is fascinating and as water becomes an ever scarce resource is important information.</span><br />

This place is pure magic, and the people are just great. Go just for the interesting conversation and interesting information you'll take in if nothing else.

You won't be disappointed. Though they should definitely make evening excursion of tinkering with wood stains and learning Wood Burning a permanent part of the course as standard rather than a one-off suggestion, as it was for our group because it was so much fun and a really beautiful thing to create stunning blackened wood. </span><br />

<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-weight: 400; white-space: pre-wrap;">Legal Speak When Buying a Home</span></span></h3>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">There is no denying that there are endless legal terms that you will come across when buying a house, your solicitor will be able to explain the more complex versions but listed here are a few of the things you should be aware of before beginning your home buyer journey.</span></span><br />
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Solicitor </span><span style="font-weight: 400; white-space: pre-wrap;">- A legal professional who acts on behalf of the buyer or seller when a property is to be sold or purchased. Their function is to ensure all legal obligations and checks are carried out, they also contact all the relevant local authorities informing them of the sale, handle transferring your funds and oversee the exchange of contracts. </span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Subject </span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">to </span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Contract </span><span style="font-weight: 400; white-space: pre-wrap;">- is a term that refers to an agreement to purchase a property before the exchange of contracts.</span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Deeds </span><span style="font-weight: 400; white-space: pre-wrap;">– are the legal documents that denote the ownership and boundary lines of the home, gardens and land.</span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Land </span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Registry </span><span style="font-weight: 400; white-space: pre-wrap;">– The government body which holds all the records of registered properties in England and Wales</span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Transfer </span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Deeds </span><span style="font-weight: 400; white-space: pre-wrap;">- This is a document from the Land Registry that transfers legal ownership from the seller to buyer. </span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Land </span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Certificate </span><span style="font-weight: 400; white-space: pre-wrap;">- This is land registry certificate which proves ownership of the home.</span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Encumbrance </span><span style="font-weight: 400; white-space: pre-wrap;">- Is a legal claim against, limitation on or liability against real estate. This includes liens, deed restrictions, easements, encroachments and licenses etc. An encumbrance can restrict your ability to transfer title to the property, or to do certain things. A home totally free of any encumbrance is relatively rare, but they may reduce the value of the property - for instance if your home has a right of way across it. </span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Covenant </span><span style="font-weight: 400; white-space: pre-wrap;">– Is a condition contained in the lease that the buyer must comply with. A restrictive covenant stops the owner from doing something, such as extending the home. </span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Title </span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Deeds </span><span style="font-weight: 400; white-space: pre-wrap;">- These are the physical paper documents showing the chain of ownership for land and property. They can include: conveyances, contracts for sale, wills, mortgages and leases.</span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Contract <span style="font-weight: 400;">– This is a Legal Agreement setting out contractual terms between the buyer and seller, this will be drafted by a solicitor or conveyancer This agreement is entered into by the seller and buyer of a property which only becomes binding once there has been an exchange of contracts. </span></span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Unencumbered <span style="font-weight: 400;">- A home that is free and clear of any encumbrances, see above. </span></span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Offer <span style="font-weight: 400;">– An offer you make as a prospective buyer to purchase a property - It’s not legally binding at this point of the sales process.</span></span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Under O</span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">ffer </span><span style="font-weight: 400; white-space: pre-wrap;">– When you haven’t exchanged contracts yet but your offer has been accepted by the seller.Beware this is when you’re mostly likely to run into issues of Gazumping, </span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Verbal </span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Offer </span><span style="font-weight: 400; white-space: pre-wrap;">- A verbal offer by the buyer for a property is not legally binding, never rely on a verbal offer - if there is one rule in life you should always follow it is to have evidence! I would recommend always have conversations over Email so that any agreements are in writing and the solicitor drawing up the contracts can include anything agreed in the contract. Such as agreeing an offer based on appliances etc being included in the sale. </span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Exchange of Contract <span style="font-weight: 400;">– When the two legal firms representing the seller and buyer swap signed contracts - Following this the buyer then pays a deposit. The exchange of contracts is when the agreed terms become binding on the buyer and seller.</span></span></span></h2>

<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Title Search <span style="font-weight: 400;">- This is an investigation carried out by a conveyancer or solicitor into the history of the ownership of a home. The title search will check for liens, unpaid claims, restrictions or any other problems that may affect your ownership of the property.</span></span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Completion <span style="font-weight: 400;">– The moment you’ve been waiting for! When you have the legal right to the property after the sale has been finalised. It is the final step in the legal process of transferring ownership of property. Completion is usually the point at which the purchase price for the home is paid and the transfer documents are officially dated.</span></span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Completion Date <span style="font-weight: 400;">- The completion of the legal transaction, with the money and documents all distributed, and keys are released.</span></span></span></h2>

Your solicitor may request other searches and ask for payment for these in advance. </span></span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Leasehold <span style="font-weight: 400;">- This means that you can own a property for a number of years, but not the land under it - normally requiring you to make an annual payment of ground rent to the landlord.</span></span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Freehold <span style="font-weight: 400;">- This is when the owner of the property also owns the land - would strongly recommend getting a freehold over a leasehold home.</span></span></span></h2>
<h2 style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 20pt;">
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Easement <span style="font-weight: 400;">-This is a right to use and/or enter on the property of another without owning it, this is used in legal terms to describe the right of way between landowners.</span></span></span></h2>

<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Share of Freehold <span style="font-weight: 400;">- the Freehold on which property stands is owned by a limited company and the shareholders of that limited company are the owners of the property.</span></span></span></h2>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">This list of home buying legal terms that you should understand before purchasing a new home is by no means </span></span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">exhaustive</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">! You should always ask questions if there is ever anything said during the legal process of buying a home that you don't understand - buying a home is daunting enough without also being in the dark about what the </span></span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">technicalities</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> mean. If you found this useful or want to save it for future use you can save it to a Pintrest board with the graphic below. </span></span></span><br />

Thanks to cleaning gurus like Mrs Hinch Zoflora is sweeping the nation... quite literally! This small bottle of ultra-concentrated cleaning solutions is more popular than ever.</h2>
<h3>
But what does Zaflora actually do?</h3>
Zoflora is a concentrated disinfectant, that needs watering down before you use it in a spray bottle or mop bucket - it can, however, be used at full strength down your plugholes and drains to clear up any nasty smells that may be lurking. It claims to kill 99.9% of bacteria and leave you with all-day freshness.<br />
<br />
The makers of it claim that it is a multi-room, multi-use product that can be used throughout the home to combat the spread and reproduction of bacteria and viruses in the home. So you can use it used as part of your daily routine, you can relax knowing your family are protected - nothing sinister about that is there? Well while its safe for people (Unless its inhaled or ingested) it isn't so safe for the furrier members of the family - Zoflora contains a detergent called benzalkonium chloride which is particularly toxic in cats and as cats will usually lick their paws if they have walked on a damp clean floor I would steer clear of this product if you're an animal household - even though most of the boxes have animals on this product really is a bit of a risk for pet owners.<br />

<h4>
So Where can you use Zoflora?</h4>
They recommend adding a cap full Zoflora to warm water in the sink which you can then wipe all around the sink including taps and draining board. If you want to deep clean your cloths you can then leave your cloth and any other washing up equipment such as brushes or sponges in the solution to soak, leaving them bacteria-free and ready for use - this is best done overnight so that you come down to a wonderful fresh scent in your kitchen in the morning.<br />
<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span><br />
Floors are one of the most high traffic areas in your home and often becoming teeming with bacteria and dirt. To overcome this you can add 4 cap fulls of your favourite Zoflora disinfectant into a mop bucket of warm water, and use that to mop over hard floor surfaces to clean them add a lovely fragrance to your home.<br />
<br />
If you want to create your own Spray Cleaner mix a Capful of Zaflora into a spray bottle filled with water - Ideal for use on most surfaces, except some fabrics and polished wood. This spray is a powerful disinfectant so perfect for stinky jobs such as getting that grot that accumulates around the top of your kitchen bin or bathroom surfaces. In the bathroom, you can also fight the bacteria hotspots by putting a couple of capfuls the Toilet Brush holder and in the Toilet itself overnight.<br />

My Top 6 Zaflora Fragrances</h2>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Okay so I know this should be a top-five but, I couldn't really decide, I've got to admit I am a convert to this stuff even if it does need to be used with caution - let's be real the majority of cleaning products by their very nature need to be used with caution.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
One of their most popular fragrances ''Mountain Air' Zaflora smells of a mixture of citrus fruits and herbs - very medicinal but pleasant. If you want that lingering deep cleaned scent I'd recommend this product. There is one downside to this one though, it is marketed as specifically for targeting pet smells. There's even a cat on the box... literally nowhere on the <a href="https://www.zoflora.co.uk/products/fresh-home-mountain-air" target="_blank">official page</a> of this specific product does it suggest that it could pose a risk if not allowed to fully dry before allowing near pets. </div>

A tiny amount goes a long way as just a capful will fill the entire room with a bright floral fragrance of roses and sweetness with a slight undercurrent of woodiness which creates a charming woodland feel to the fragrance- not one for the more masculine spaces though. </div>

This scent has a zesty pleasant odour, just a little touch goes a long way to make a room smell fresh and vibrant, of lemons, grapefruit and ginger this natural enzyme cleaner is perfect for sterilizing hard floors and worksurfaces without making your room smell like a harsh chemical disinfectant. Nothing quite evokes clean more than the smell of fresh lemons, and its no surprise that this is easily one of the best Zoflora fragrances. I'm not alone in loving Zaflora Lemon Zing Sarah of <a href="http://sazlove.com/">SazLove.com</a> had this said <i>'It completely lived up to my expectations and it delivers such a strong, fresh citrusy scent. I use this one in the kitchen mainly, with it being a fruit scent. It’s been a fab product for when I’m cleaning up in the kitchen after cooking a big meal such as a curry, to disinfect the worktops and helps get rid of the lingering food smell.'</i><br />

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
While researching this post, I stumbled across the Zaflora Youtube channel and my gosh it's a bleeding goldmine - I doubt they intended it to be but the mental CGI of the fragrances looking like they induce bad acid trips and total lack of any diversity is really something - maybe the Zaflora world is only thin white women and a spaniel.... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Dear lord the birds... but I must admit I had to pull myself out of the green screen trip that is the Zaflora YT channel when they dedicated a quarter of a video to a close up of a dogs arsehole -<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dX6VnWriVl4" target="_blank"> I wish I was kidding</a>. I Can't Even. At least this goes to show you never know what is going to become a trend, the marketing team at Zaflora clearly relegated this humble little product to the pit and left it to the interns but Mrs Hinch did all their marketing for them I guess...</div>

“Every year, we seek to transform a trend into a colour that responds to consumer needs and enables them to bring a mood, affecting their life, into their homes. In 2019, as a society, we want to reach out, engage with our communities, make things better and ‘be the change’ – anything from supporting charities to small acts of neighbourly kindness. It’s time to act and Spiced Honey enables transformation inspiring a positive, emotional change.” - Dulux<br />

Now I don't know about all that fluff but I do actually think this is a real step in the right direction for interiors colours! Over the last few years, the colour of the year colours haven't been the most usable but Spiced Honey is a brilliant neutral. This warming shade is somewhere between a sweet caramel and a rich earth shade.<br />
<br />
This shade can look really stunning when beautifully styled with Scandi soft furnishing and furniture<br />
Spiced Honey looks right at home seen here mixed with all manner of wooden accents, from furniture to the herringbone floor. Seamlessly blending in is what creates a sense of unity and effortless beauty.<br />
<br />
Spiced Honey looks are best teamed with whites and off-whites to give the darker neutral a contemporary lift or if you're looking for a more bold this versatile colour can also be paired with darker colours such as an elegant Burgandy or Navy for a very sophisticated palette.<br />

Miami owes its unique colour palette to a man before his time <a href="https://www.wlrn.org/post/meet-man-behind-all-those-south-beach-pastels" target="_blank">Leonard Horowitz</a>, who arrived from NYC in Miami in the '70s after his family disowned him for his sexuality. He then set about transforming the Miami skyline one building at a time into the pastel bright paradise we know today. Which was added to by the crazy neons of the '80s and the Miami club scene which is world-renowned for its outlandish styling and ostentatiousness. Add a sense of this vibrancy and fun into your home with all the turquoise and wild tropical shades of deep orange and Kitsch blush pinks. Miami has a bold style of art deco futurism, full of beautiful lines and quirky architecture. Getting this full-on place into one interior can make decorating with the colours of Miami Beach a little bit tricky but so worthwhile when done properly!<br />

To bring this look into your home choose the main colour, like a beautiful sky blue or a blush pink, then contrast with touches of hotter aqua, punchy yellow, or palm tree green, to capture that dreamy sun-kissed style. Don't be afraid to mix pastels and neons, a south beach-inspired palette is all about being bold with colour, but a little faded. Add hints of chrome and retro styling to create a sizzling room set. Contrasting pastel colours with neon brights can introduce a dramatic effect, and colour blocking using similar shades can be used to make a space feel more cohesive and aesthetic. When done right this look is share and truely contemporary even though it is inspired by a retro nostalgic look.<br />

When mixing bold colours like neon it doesn't have to be overpowering as little touches here and there create a big impact. If you're not brave enough to go full wall colour, you could leave your walls white and add a brightly painted door frame to add a touch of vibrancy to an otherwise muted interior. In particular electric blue and neon pink, work so well when paired with delicate chalky pastels. In contrast, if you really want to throw the boat out and go deep into the colours that go with this look consider accenting with a deep navy to really bring out that night time futuristic vibe of the beach at night - illuminated by the garish neon lights.<br />

I would lay my money on this becoming one of the bigger interior trends for everyday homes before too long as people hark for more colour after years of delicate feminine blush colours dominating the interiors world. While darker colours are popular in magazines, the numbers don't lie, with Whites by far the most popular bestsellers for all paint brands distantly followed by Greys, earth tones and muted lavenders. While rose quartz and serenity, Pantone's colours of the year in 2016 (before every brand and their dog were announcing a colour of the year), are like drops of colour into a white base, these almost white shades have crept into the mainstream. I'm calling it now that as people slowly begin to reject white in favour of hints of colour, the mainstream is going to swing the other way as the rich Amber and Jewel tones of the '70s make a break from fantastical magazine shoots into the lives of everyday homes... and the cycle will begin again as people create homes that future DIY-ers will look at going 'what maniac paired red velvet curtains, with two different patterns of flock wallpaper and differently patterned shagpile carpet' - not an exaggeration of the kind of thing I've found house hunting... So don't do that, skip the 70s instead opt for a timeless look with hints of nostalgia and youth all rolled into one, the South Beach-inspired pallet has a classic appeal no matter what era.<br />

<br /></div>
I love interior design blogs, not only for the endless inspiration they can bring from seeing photos of beautiful properties to different perspectives on trends. I love them all - even ones that have totally different styles from my own. Don't worry this isn't just going to be another list with Mad About the House and Swoonworthy in because I know when I've hunted for new bloggers to follow I've seen those sorts of lists a million times now to!<br />

I met the author of the Skirtingboards & Chandeliers blog Donna at London Design week earlier this year, at the Style Library showroom in Chelsea Harbour, where we ended up having a really interesting chat about William Morris and how maximalist patterns can be used in minimalist homes. Her passion for interior design shines out her blog and her writing is so engaging you will end up falling down the rabbit hole of room inspiration. If you're looking for beautiful room styles in real life properties then this blog is for you, her DIY decor tips are great and can de be recreated in your home. Her photography and styling is just swoonable!<br />

Fellow scouser Natalie Holden is an interior designer with a serious sense of style, her chic and classic interiors are properly showstopping. Her blog is an honest look inside her creative mind, talking about everything from her journey leaving her full-time job to behind the scenes looks into where design ideas come from. I love her use of cool neutrals and bright colours, meaning all of her images have a beautiful richness to them that just draws you in.<br />

This blog is just pure aspirational beautiful images, in minimal style and rich earthy neutral tone it just envelopes you in gorgeous style. Every image has a textural feel and the honesty of the writing is so refreshing. This blog always makes me feel so calm and inspired to go out an buy linen and dried flowers. This is a blog to sink into while drinking a good hot chocolate while wearing a chunky knit jumper.<br />

The Cozy Minimalist Home by Myquillyn Smith (Aka The Nester)<br />
<br />
In her first book ‘The Nesting Place’ Myquillyn Smith gaves endless tips, simple steps, and practical advice, with actionable encouragement to give you the courage to take risks with your home. It was all about the beauty in the lived-in and loved-on and welcoming that imperfection wholeheartedly, told from the backdrop of her own journey in her rented home. She is most famous for her Blog The Nester which is a real glimpse into the mind of an interior design explorer. I really appreciate an honest blogger who admits to their hoarding piles of things and actually admitting to being a human, your home is not a show-home it is a backdrop for your life. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her latest book ‘Cozy Minimalist Home’ she teaches a mindful approach to pare back your home, the theory is that minimalism isn’t about going without or achieving a particular new, modern style. It is about achieving whatever style you wish with the fewest possible items and keeping the items that truly mean something to you. It is not the brutalist and cold minimalism that has been the dominating fad over the last decade that is utterly impractical and unachievable for anyone. </div>

October is here and I’m not happy about it either! I don’t cope well with cold, wet weather, dirty leaves everywhere and the general grumbliness that cold seasons bring. The approach of autumn also brings with it its own set of challenges for the home, so here is a list of five things you need to do to get your house ready for winter this October.<br />

<h3>
Maintain your drains</h3>
Clear your gutters and drains, autumn will bring the leaves off the trees and heavy rains so if your drains are already clogged with leaves you will be in for a bad time! Not only can clogged drains cause rising damp but blocked gutters can cause external and internal damage, this is totally preventable now but once bad weather hits the problem of a few leaves in the gutter can quickly snowball into destroyed plasterwork. As we discovered to our horror that our current house didn't have an outside drainpipe so when it rained all the water was just pouring down the side of the house.<br />

<h3>
Make sure you’re watertight</h3>
Check all your windows and your roof for damage, maintenance is important to buildings of all ages and types to keep it standing. If you have damaged windows or roof tiles you need to get an expert out to fix them asap. Damaged roof tiles can ruin your insulation and lead to damage all over your property.<br />

<h3>
Get a home health check </h3>
Get your boiler checked, its best to have your boiler audited once a year to keep it in working order and make sure that it is safe. It is better to check your boiler earlier in the year when the engineer isn’t as busy so you can avoid your boiler breaking midwinter when the weather is horrid and the engineers are in short supply. A home’s electrics are one of the major sources of insurance claims. If you haven’t thought to have them checked in a while October is also the perfect month to get your electrics given a clean bill of health. I would always recommend that you get a registered electrician to check your home’s fuse box and wiring to ensure that it is all working properly and that you won't face any surprises in the winter months<br />
<br />
<h3>
Ensure you’re covered</h3>
Making sure you’re covered for any winter-related damage is really important. It is always a good idea as winter approaches to check that your home insurance policy offers adequate protection, you want to make sure that you’d be covered in the event of fire, flood, subsidence and theft. In addition to this you may also need to look into accidental damage or storm damage as most home cover policies won’t include this as standard.<br />

<h3>
Get your kitchen winter-ready</h3>
It's time to purge all those summer staples from the kitchen – all those remnants of salad dressing and smoothie ingredients are out! It's time to start stocking up on all the winter warmers like Cinnamon, Cloves and Ginger so you can begin creating those comforting staples. You’ll want to have on hand all the ingredients to make hearty stews and one-pots, so buy tinned essentials for the cupboard and make sure you have enough meat in the freezer so you can set the slow cooker before you leave for work and come home to the cosy smells of winter stew. If you clear your smoothie maker and salad spinners to the back of the cupboard you will have<br />

For our games room / Guest room I didn't have to look far for inspiration... As the house is rented were hoping to do everything as inexpensively as possible, so when my mum offered us a few leftover rolls of wallpaper and a few tins of paint I jumped at it! We're hoping to create a kind of tree house effect with chalky Sage Green paint (Deco Home) and some beautiful painterly wallpaper of watercolour trees in a beautiful soft green colour palette (Sanderson Waterperry). I want the room to feel peaceful and cosy, a far cry from the current peeling red walls and filthy white.<br />

Sage Green really is a classic choice if you’re after a restful colour that’s subtle, and incredibly versatile. The subtle grey and green tones of sage green make it one of the best colours to use in your home decor, particularly if you want to create a tranquil environment because it so such a range of coordinating colours. It looks beautiful in any room from a classic country kitchen to a peaceful modern bedroom, this makes it the ideal choice for a multi-use guest room!<br />

We want a result that creates a really soft, tactile look to the space. We want the room to feel relaxed and welcoming, but still be a multifunctional space. We're opting to have sofa bed rather than a double in this room so that the majority of the time it functions as a games room to dump the PlayStation and have a more informal room for friends to chill out in. </div>

We're hoping that the room is large enough that the darker shade of Sage Green on the walls will be light enough not to overwhelm the scheme. We're hoping the light wood of the floor will help warm the space as sage green is such a good partner with natural light coloured wood. Natural wood tones beautifully with watercolour shades of green because it makes a scheme feel natural and airy. The natural texture of wood really does looks lovely against the nature-inspired hues in the Waterperry wallpaper by Sanderson so we're planning to put a pine and cream blanket box in this room as storage for all the video games.<br />

Our Current House Story</h3>
Two years ago I moved into my current house, a rented 1930's semi with peeling vinyl wallpaper covered in thick layers of filthy magnolia paint and god knows what other substances. It had previously been a student pad and came with some questionable furniture, a wild garden and spiders the size of my face. But it was in our budget and the landlord seemed like a reasonable bloke - fees to a minimum and we could redecorate if we wanted to.<br />

One of the first things I did was redecorate my bedroom, which was frankly the worst room in the house. There where stains.... 🤢🤢🤢 I deep cleaned the walls, because the landlord didn't want us to take the textured wallpaper I had to keep the woodchip wallpaper, I hate textured wallpaper with a passion but thats what you have to deal with in rented homes, unfortunately. I painted the walls in Dulux Chic Shadow and covered the yellowing glosswork in Wilko Brilliant White gloss.<br />

Once I'd done one room I had THE ITCH to do more... So I arranged to have the kitchen table removed, that took up literally two-thirds of our living room, it was honestly a joke! It was such a hefty thing it took the handyman who came to remove it over an hour to dismantle. The walls needed a lot of TLC because of damp patches and general wear and tear. Once I'd deep cleaned and polyfillered where needed I set about repainting the living room in Sanderson Crystal Grey in Elite Emulsion. </div>

The next step was the kitchen, which was greasy and tired magnolia. I chose a cheerful warm Yellow by Johnsons to paint the Kitchen. The happy yellow contrasts with the grey livingroom to create a really welcoming space that is just so happy to come into in the mornings. </div>

Lastly, I redid the hallways, which was in desperate need of work and made the biggest impact on the house! The tired peeling vinyl needed stripping and it was such a satisfying job to get rid of it! but it did reveal some nasty cracks in the plaster, so I had to fill them and sand them before repainting, not a perfect job but a million times better than what was there before. The paint I chose was Dulux Goose Down, which is a very warm grey in a satin finish to help bounce the light in our dark hallway. </div>

I also wallpapered the main hallway with a feature wall of Zoffany Prism wallpaper, the perfect wallpaper for a hallway dramatic but not too garish. The wallpaper is contract quality so scrubbable and hardwearing enough for a high traffic area. For my first attempt at wallpapering I think it looks pretty good, even if it did take me a very very long time and I struggled with the weight of the paper, if I was to do it again I would choose a normal wallpaper rather than a vinyl because I really struggled to lift it at times meaning I needed help to put it up. </div>

We also changed the small guest bedroom which looked like a prison cell into a games room by having the bed removed and moving a small sofa into there. Not the prettiest designed room but it did what it was supposed too, contain the boys video games and keep them from demolishing the house when they had their mates over.</div>

The final change we made to the property was the garden. I did an insane amount of weeding, hacking back brambles and pulling out tree saplings to get it looking somewhat respectable. Then I set about filling it with bulbs, wildflower seeds and planting a herb garden. It transformed into a shabby student mess to a grown-up place to hang out and have a BBQ. </div>

Why Landlords should be just as pissed off about Agents fees as Tenants</h2>
<br />
It is well known that letting Agents fees are the bane of anyone who rents, tenants in England are currently paying an average of £404 every time they move on fees that don’t give them any return on investment. There are even additional charges for tenants on low incomes and needing rent guarantors (at an average cost £152), or things as simple as moving in on a weekend with comes with an extra £62 charge. These controversial fees are bad for tenants but are they good for landlords?<br />
<br />

<br />
For a start Agents fees sets the relationship off to a bad start because lets face it most Letting Agents fees to tenants are little short of a scam. I recently went to view a rental property that the Agent wanted to charge over a grands worth of none refundable fees for when asked why they were priced like that when our current landlords where simply charging £55 total for tenant referencing the response was a shrug and ‘you get what you pay for’. Our current landlord has been a superstar and this Agent couldn’t even give an explanation for what we would be getting for +£1000, needless to say even if it had been the dream house I wouldn’t want to ever deal with a Letting Agency like that again. That Landlord is now sitting on a property that's tenants are leaving and no tenant lined up because the Letting agency will make more money waiting for a tenant who will bow to their ridiculous fees than getting tenants in quickly to keep the landlords' income coming in.<br />

<br />
Another way that those fees create problems for the landlord is that it disincentivizes tenants staying long term. Tenants are more willing to move if they are going to be charged a fee to update tenancy arrangements, something that takes no time at all from the Agents side and frankly should be part of the ongoing commision they take from letting the property. Again it’s in the Agents best interest that tenants are constantly changing so they can charge introductory fees, which means the landlord is at more risk of getting lumbered with nightmare tenants and at higher risk of having months without tenants. This is another reason Letting agencies often have blanket bans on pets, without discussing this clause with the landlords, statistics show that tenants are often happier and likely to stay significantly longer in a tenancy if they are allowed pets. It is financially better for landlords to allow pets but Letting agencies will often deny this even though pets damage is often far cheaper to fix than damage caused by tenants with children. A long-term, good tenant is the ultimate goal for a landlord, so it is in your best interests to keep your tenants happy, but this is not the goal of the people you spend 15% of your takings on which is madness.<br />

<br />
Fees could soon be an illegal practice as it already is in Scotland, a bill which aims to ban fees in England was drafted by the government in 2017, which would see the government banning letting Agent fees paid by tenants, and also sets a cap on tenancy deposits at a maximum of six weeks’ rent. Though the government has revealed it doesn’t expect the ban to come into force until “after spring 2019” and has no official timetable for when this will actually come into play. Without pointing fingers, this slow change isn’t really surprising when you consider the number of politicians who have invested into property. It is currently illegal to charge tenants anything that the landlord has already been charged for, but as Letting Agents keep the landlords' details private from the tenants there is no transparency if Agents are actually acting within the law. Letting Agents are being paid by both parties, meaning they cannot act as representation for either party in a court of law making them effectively useless. These fees are not in the tenants or the landlord's best interest so both parties should be doing more to see that they are abolished. The Residential Landlords Association said there were many positives in the plans to stop Tenants fee, and welcomed the cap on deposits being set at six weeks but have warned that the Letting Agents may just pass these fees onto landlords in turn leading to higher rents.<br />
<br />
Though from a Tenants perspective this small rise in rent will almost certainly end up costing them less than the current wild west approach of Letting Agents squeezing them for every fee they can think of “research commissioned by ARLA Propertymark carried out by Capital Economics demonstrated that if a full ban comes into force, two tenants will end up paying an extra £206 per year in rent” which would equate to an extra £17.17 pcm. For anyone who has to rent privately and move often, £17.17 a month is far easier to find than an additional £400 - £1000 in letting Agent fees at the time of moving. As deposits are not returned until at least two to four weeks after you vacate a property and you cannot be 100% sure you will get your deposit back at all thanks to unscrupulous Letting Agents. You’re expected to come up with a months rent upfront, a deposit and fees, on top of all the costs associated with moving a £17.17 increase seems a small price to pay.<br />

Finally and probably most importantly they are ripping off landlords! There are real problems for many landlords with the way Letting Agents are legally allowed to behave as there is no standard service level agreement between landlords and Letting Agent meaning costs and level of service will vary wildly from Letting Agent to Letting Agent. In addition to this Letting Agents are currently able to set up with no training or qualifications, meaning that they can basically do what they like out ignorance, they not experts they are vultures. The Government has announced that they intend to introduce an independent regulator for all Letting and Managing Agents but this is not going to happen quickly or easily. Landlords particularly those new to letting property are more often than not unaware of these fundamental flaws with the way Letting Agents are allowed to operate, and will often inadvertently end up paying way more than they need for letting their property. Currently, there is an oversupply of some rental accommodation leading to voids in tenants, a landlord that uses a letting Agent could find that they are paying a Letting Agent with a large number of similar properties on their books. The Letting Agent won’t tell landlords this because they have nothing to lose by having another client and more choice to attract tenants who are the real cash cows. The landlord, on the other hand, would be far better advertising their property separately where they can control the marketing, build a relationship with their tenant and overall have a much greater degree of control over their investment.<br />

Published on the 70th anniversary of the founding of the British institution that is Farrow & Ball, this beautiful book brings together the expertise of Joa Studholme and the Farrow & Ball creative team to help you transform your home - from deciding which colours work best in a north-facing room to creating accents with paint and making the most of a feature wall. The authors, Charlotte Cosby (Head of Creative) and Joa Studholme (Colour Expert), clearly live and breath paint, their passion for colour is inspiring!<br />

<span style="text-align: center;">As you would expect from any Farrow and Ball product the book is beautifully designed, with contrasting brown paper sections, interspersed with helpful advice and beautiful images. While there is nothing groundbreaking in this book that wouldn’t be readily available on their website, there is something special about having a physical book to browse for inspiration for room design. This book is the perfect coffee table book. </span><br />

The authors tend to use a tone of authority that at times, is a little eye-roll inducing, in particular, the section on why to paint skirting rails to match screams early 2000’s outdated advice. It also bills itself as the ultimate bible on decorating in ‘Paper & Paint’ when, let’s be real, this is a paint ad through and through. Yes F&B also do paper but they’re not exactly renowned for it and the amount of décor that isn't painted in this book reflects that. Similarly, it is pitched as a cover all advice from every home from a country estate to modern properties, which just isn’t realistic, what makes the images so attractive is the period properties. Ultimately that what makes this book worth the cost is just how beautiful the interiors are designed, the glamorously styled images and of course the colour palette of Farrow & Balls just dreamy paints.<br />

World Emoji Day 2018 is the fifth annual celebration of the silly little symbols that have gone from a marketing gimmick to a mode of communication. Emojis first appeared in Japan in 1999, from then they've grown into the loveable icons we know today. World Emoji Day began in 2014 when users of Apple devices noticed that Apple’s calendar apps showed July 17.<br />

I'm really in love with this colour combination colour as a vibrant earthy terracotta is warming, and much easier to work with than red which can be notoriously difficult to pair without looking garish. Terracotta when paired with navy or punchier royal blues creates a sophisticated and modern look.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: justify;">Increasingly we’re seeing orange and blue colour schemes in interior design, this modern playful p combination is great for adding warmth and fun into a room. With hot Oranges contrasting against light blues you can create a refreshing yet calming décor. These shades are </span>at<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: justify;"> opposite sides of the colour wheel which is why they work so well together. When used as accent colours in predominantly white rooms these shades tend to pop, to make an eye-catching room style with accessories in shades of rich rust and lazuli blue. The best place to use orange and blue together would be a Living room, as these colours are a little too bright for the bedroom, but this power couple could also look great in a kitchen diner or even a bathroom. </span><br />

If you’re looking to create a room filled with brightness and perkiness a colour palette of Raspberry pinks and cool blues is a great place to start. Blue and pink are usually associated with Blue for boys and Pink for girls so mixing the two can create a fun mix.<br />
Team a palette of super-charged bright Reds with softer blues for a bold chic look. Sky Blue and Raspberry works particularly well with splashes of Millennial Pink as it helps lift the overall palette and balances out the more punchy colours. The vibrant blue and pink are perfect for creating a cool visual effect contrasting the pale pink walls.<br />

It can be what you wish it to be from charming and simple to eye-catching and in your face. Ombre is a versatile style that can bring an effortless bohemian feel to home décor. For a boho chic look, you can create a look with a ‘dip-dyed’ tie-dye look, mixed with symbols and a feminine charm. Alternatively, by using ombre as a backdrop for modern white furniture it can take on a more sophisticated appearance. </span></span><br />
