to ask about things you did to your home that make you happy?

[BabsolutelyAnanas]

We are somewhere in the middle of purchasing a house (hurrah!)

Looking for ideas of how to nest and interior design our little home is the main thing that cheers me up at the moment, and I am always on the lookout for new ideas to make best use of space and to make it feel like our castle/small terraced house .

I'm interested in non-sickly children's room ideas, space saving kitchen ideas and cosy living room ideas but more than anything else I'd love to know what changes or purchases you've made to your homes to make it feel like yours and a place you're happy to retreat to at the end of the day. Big or small, expensive or completely free I would love to hear what parts of your home make you happy.

John Lewis wallpaper. Looks lush. Discreet and classy, not like the stuff in other places.

Have multiple lamps/ sources of lighting in each room to create soft light. Chuck in some fairy lights if you like those.

Add warmth and texture with rugs and throws.

Ripped out an ugly broken gas fire and replaced with a woodburner and a stone hearth

Bifold doors which let in lots of light.
