Living better, but with less
I’m ashamed. I let life get on top of me a little bit, I’ve updated my wardrobe and I haven’t cleared anything out. I’m now struggling to close drawers and find things in my heaving wardrobe. I honestly can’t believe I’ve let things get to this point. Perhaps that’s why I’ve been lacking in motivation…

The ‘one in on out’ concept is something that is often discussed and talked about in the minimalist community. In my early minimalist days, I was attempting to be so strict that I actually followed a ‘one in two out’ policy as a way to try and curb any unnecessary clothing shopping. These days I’m…

A few days ago, I decided to finally get rid of a book I’d been holding onto for about six months (probably more if I’m honest but time goes so quickly it’s hard to keep track). I tried a number of times to sit and read this particular book, but couldn’t seem to get into…

This is in replacement of the cheap white canvas shoes I used to buy relatively frequently,…

The other day, my boyfriend and I did a shop at our local store that sells everything without packaging, that is, you BYO containers and fill them up in the store with whatever you need.

I was recently gifted a vase as part of my bridesmaids bouquet, it’s a lovely vase and I don’t currently own one of my own. However, my boyfriend does own one. His definitely isn’t the nicest of vases, it’s made of thick, clouded glass (clearly not expensive or great quality) but nonetheless does the job.…

So…my boyfriend and I are going to renovate the bathroom/toilet. We are aiming to do this on a smalllllll budget. Mostly because this is not a forever home, this is a starter home and it’s important that we don’t over capitalise because it’s highly unlikely that it would significantly increase the value of the property.…
