It’s time for South Australia’s Lisa and Andy to hand over the keys to their self-described ‘1970’s nightmare’. I thought this was a pretty good reveal! They even manged some herringbone floors. I loved the main bathroom and the kitchen was cute, but did not like all the fake greenery in the bedrooms. What is […]
I would normally whinge about the cold when I see a property for sale in Tasmania, but I would do it for this one! What an absolute stunner. Light, space and warm timber finishes have transformed this life style family home into something truly unique. – Agent. This home is currently on the market and […]
The first challenge has just been completed on House Rules 2019. It was a mega warehouse transformation of the first floor. The 6 couples got straight to it. The sisters Mikeala and Eliza took out the win (they aren’t sure what that means yet), but they head in to the first house reno (Pete and […]
I’ve been slowly collecting a new ‘range’ of cleaning and body products in my home. This has taken a good few months to get all of these goodies. If you decide to start making all your own cleaning, room sprays, body balms, magnesium sprays, washing products… then this takes time to collect. Don’t feel like […]
Brought to you by Godfreys. Recently I had the chance to review the Deebot Ozmo 900 Robot. I was so excited because this little gadget has an integrated vacuum and mop cleaning system. It vacuums AND mops AT THE SAME TIME. I know, I’m yelling, but how clever does that sound?? I was so keen to […]

The rubber plant has won my heart. It’s becoming my favourite indoor plant. It’s better than the fiddle leaf if you ask me! Big call I know, but look at those leaves! They are thicker, more defined in shape and the colour is stunning. The leaves don’t droop or become tattered like a fiddle leaf […]

Thanks for popping in today. Here’s a floor plan I found which would work for many families. It would tick all the boxes, and fit on a regular size block of land. 4 bedrooms, theatre, rumpus and study nook with an excellent outdoor alfresco area. I’m not sure what everyone thinks about the laundry position?? […]
I really love the trend of putting indoor plants in a basket. They just look better don’t you think? First you need to find an indoor plant that you won’t kill haha. I have ideas for you here and here. OR if you’re really going to kill them (like I do often!) then here is a post […]
The first home to be transformed was Pete and Courtney’s. Their home is located in the foothills of Victoria’s Dandenong Ranges is a ‘huge brown brick 80s mega-mansion that’s stuck in some wacky time warp.’ The brief was ‘bold-opulent’. The House Rules The teams definitely stuck to the brief and we all know what to expect! They’d […]

I thought this was a really good family home. It ticks a lot of boxes for people wanting that indoor/outdoor lifestyle. It’s hard to see, so you will have to squint. Sorry! I cannot find the original source for this one. I found it via a pinterest board. The laundry and garage position is good. […]
So, you’ve joined doTERRA? And you keep hearing people talk about LRP and special deals you can only get when you’re on LRP?? Today I thought I might explain this for you. What is LRP? It’s the free oils program – or the LRP (Loyalty Rewards Program). How do I use it and why it’s […]
