I didn’t get around to posting these photos last week, so here they are! This was the Grand Final Decider on House Rules where the couples renovated Chelsea and Koa’s house. NSW couple and childhood sweethearts Chelsea and her husband Wayde had applied as contestants in this season of House Rules – dreaming of transforming their […]
Hello! Thanks for stopping by today. Sadly I don’t have any awesome design photos to show you today… Just a few red-hot-mess ones from the final (thank the lord) backyard reveals on House Rules. To be fair, there were a couple of OK design elements here, but mostly I can’t even look at them. I […]
We’re back with part 2 of the backyard reveals on House Rules. Thank god it’s nearly over. I get so crazy overwhelmed and my head spins when I see most of the reveals. But I am totally in love with Toad and Mandy’s exterior. It’s my kind of happy. Who wouldn’t want a big shed, […]
Here we go with the outdoor spaces on House Rules. To be fair to you all, I didn’t get to watch much this week so I am just seeing these reveals for the first time myself. Outdoors spaces are often an afterthought for most people when renovating. We’re too busy thinking of tiles, floors and […]
Heeellloooo! And we’re back again with another house reveal. This time it’s Toad and Mandy’s haunted 150 year homestead. While I still think they mascaraed the home, I also think it’s better than previous weeks. The rules weren’t too outlandish, but again there was no consistent theme throughout. I was hoping for light, white, Hamptons […]
I can’t even believe I was loading these photos in to my blog to discuss…. why???? I am horrified. This is bad isn’t it? I feel really embarrassed. Let’s get this straight though – this is a design TV show, where the contestants get a score and the winner gets a prize. Their rooms are […]
Hi there! Thanks for stopping by today. Sooooo what did we think of the reveal of Leigh and Kristie’s home on House Rules?? They all did better don’t you think??? You’d definitely want your house to be further down the list that’s for sure. Not first cab of the rank, because clearly they are getting […]
Guys, I’m not sure I can continue with the House Rules stuff because I am just so stressed when I look at the reveals! Oh dear. Not much better was it this week? I need to find something nice to say don’t?? Help me find something! Ok, Kim’s bed linen was nice…. But you know […]
Last week on House Rues it was time for brothers Josh and Brandon to get their house renovated by the contestants. And because they are blokes I was expecting the worst – and I was right. I am just not sure whether this tv show can survive anymore because it’s pretty tragic at the moment! […]
This week on House Rules it was Mel and Dave’s turn for a renovation. They wanted a Hamptons feel. Mel & Dave’s rules: Transport us to The Hamptons Bring in blue with a twist of lemon Find a key vintage piece for every room Build in a handy dining nook Wrap our walls with wainscoting […]
Hi there! Here’s the first reveal for House Rules 2018. I love those awkward first few weeks where you can clearly see the couples are struggling to find their groove and the styling can be a little cringey. But they usually get the hang of it. I’m not going to tear their rooms apart because […]
House Rules 2018 starts tonight! I must have been under a rock, or just still pining for Bachelor in Paradise or something because I didn’t realise it had come around so quickly. I love this show because it’s very realistic and budgets and styling is usually achievable. I also like that sometime the contestants have […]
