As you may know, we have recently moved house. We have gone from a 6 bedroom detached house into a 3 bedroom Victorian end of terrace house. Yes, I know, not the usual transition to take as families of four usually move into bigger homes with more space but truth be told, we had too much space which we didn't use (yet paying for), struggled to maintain and filled with rubbish. So, in an attempt to simplify life a little we decided to go smaller. It works great for me because I much prefer small and cosy to big and airy but each to their own. Plus I already knew this house was lovely as my friend lived in it before us :)
As the type of our house has changed quite dramatically and are both very different styles, we have needed different things. I have also been selling like a trooper. eBay and Gumtree have become second homes to me lately. Out with the old, in with the new and all that.
So, here are some pics of my new interior and home bits I have bought.
Living Room
We have kept all of our big furniture and just added a few things like cushions to spruce it up a little.

Kitchen/Dining
We had a small dilemma regarding this sofa as I LOVE it but we had nowhere to put it. Until we decided to put it in the kitchen and it works great!

Bathroom
I haven't took pics of all of the rooms but can still show you what I bought.
Boys bedroom
This room I thought was going to be the hardest as my boys are now sharing which they've never had to do but it's actually been no problem at all. They love it! *huge sigh of relief*
Bedding- H&M • Arrow light-
ASOS • Black board wall sticker-
Amazon • Rug-
M&S.
It's been big move with a lot sacrifices and also a lot of gains. We're loving our new home and I'm loving all the cushion buying and quite enjoying all the selling and bartering on eBay and gumtree - might get myself a fanny pack and flat cap (or not).
