Hello again! I thought I'd do a quick post today as a bit of an update, because we've had big news in the last week and I wanted to share it with you all! You might already know that we've been planning to buy our first house this year, but first we had major plans to save, save, save. But last week, we were just chilling out and watching tv when Andy noticed a new house had went up for sale on line. Cue a week of madness, stress and excitement. Although we weren't planning to buy for at least another 6 months, this house was too perfect to miss. It's within walking distance to my family, has a lovely garden and I could see so much potential inside for decorating - this is where a Pinterest obsession comes in handy! It turned out that loads of people were interested and the house went to a closing date on Friday with lots of people bidding, so we put in our best offer and hoped for the best. And on Friday afternoon, we found out that our bid was accepted! If everything goes to plan (fingers crossed), we should be moving in at the end of March. We'll be living in the house while we decorate over the next few years. It's my dream to decorate a whole house from top to bottom, and to have a big garden .. and a bath! (Lush - expect your profits to soar) Anyway, I just thought I'd update you all with our exciting news and explain why it's been quiet on here the last week - we've just been celebrating!
I'm really looking forward to blogging the decorating progress too, hopefully I'll have some good before and after pictures. Here's some of the pinterest pics I'm using for inspiration - as you can imagine, I'm pinning loads these days .. you can follow my home inspo board here if you want to see some more :)

Do you have any suggestions for where else I can get some home inspo?
