To ask you to show me your normal home…

[Noseyneeps]

Fed up with the Instagram showing perfect homes, when the real world is much messier..: so show me your normal homes… here’s my messy (and a bit dated) kitchen

@IfWhenWhyWhat

by posting this picture, you have revealed to the whole internet that you have been to Florence, and probably enjoyed it! ( 🙀).

Im too knackered to post a picture of my kitchen, as I have been helping my neighbour with her garden and I am now upstairs. So here is a picture of what I can see from my prostrate position on my bed

Ours is the typical new built kitchen. Looks ok, but everything is just so boringly grey

Did you get your chairs from B&M? I've got the same ones...

I can’t post a picture in case someone I know recognises it - I like being anonymous on here! But we have a tiny galley kitchen, and the worktop on one side is piled high with Christmas snacks (we have family staying and have stocked up), to the point that every so often there’s a landslide. The lounge is pretty tidy and decorated nicely for Christmas, but the utility room is stuffed so full of junk (Christmas decoration boxes, the hoover, more food, pet food boxes, etc etc) that there’s barely room to open the washing machine door. My kids’ rooms look like a bomb’s exploded in a Lego shop and the bathroom is clean but a bit cluttered (no storage space and too many shower gel bottles etc). I envy those with beautiful, tidy homes, but evidently not enough to get my arse in gear and sort out our clutter.

Don’t be silly the inside of people’s homes is all over Rightmove with a street name too.

what do you think a nefarious power could do with images of the inside of someone’s house?

@DilemmaDelilah
i love your kitchen? Do you mind sharing where it’s from

@Bluesprinkles12 Jesus, I thought that was in black and white until I saw the sweets. Get some colour or plants in there pronto or you’ll get depressed.

I adore your boringly grey kitchen. But I have always loved grey (before it became a mrs hinch thing lol).

@Bluesprinkles12 Sorry but your kitchen makes my heart ache. Why would anyone do that? It's far too grey. Oh my god you need a thread to add some character to it. You need plants, some natural wood cutting boards, a colour on the walls. I hate grey, it's not good with English grey skies. 😢

Mainly a tree pic taken from earlier today!

Did you design this or it came with a new home? It is rather depressing colour wise.

I spent yesterday hanging a few pictures . My house is definitely not instaworthy, it's a riot of colour and charity shop treasure.

@OnionRings82 It’s a rented flat so unfortunately can’t really paint or do much of substance to it at the moment

I love your cookbook shelves!

Brought our kitchen home from MFI in 1985 on two roof racks. One unit fell off the wall last year so had a new kitchen fitted. Used some of the old units to make a shoe rack and a storage cupboard in the garage.

This is so going to only attract the showoffs

I love this thread and there have been no show offs yet.

On the other hand I’m not posting mine as it is Instagram ready 🤣

Quite messy but wfh trying to get everything done so I can log off and enjoy a break!

right now my house needs hoovering from top to bottom and the bathroom needs cleaning (kitchen cupboards and worktops always kept clean) but i went food shopping today so the sodding cleaning can wait till tomorrow by Monday when people come for dinner it will be clean its always tidy just three cats who shed hair makes the carpets and floors mucky

@greasypolemonkeyman I love vintage glass, the piece on the far right is lovely. I have lots of open vintage glass, when you put a tea light in it ❤️try some tea lights behind them, the glow is beautiful.

Who's got piles of ironing? I've changed my username just for this thread.
Just stop it. Its life changing!
Hang things up or fold them. They're fine.
Good thread OP. I'm adding a picture of my floor tiles. Just because I love them!

I agree. I often have to describe my kitchen as part of the security questions for my bank.

What? My bank has never asked me to describe my kitchen, how very odd.

@girlmeetsboy you have lots of NHS letters in your photo...

Why is your fridge int he middle of the room?

I think they’re being sarky. My point still stands though. If I’m mistaken I apologise.
