Moving Day Eve

The day I have been waiting for is almost here and it feels so strange! All my stuff is in boxes, except for 2 mugs so we can have a cup of tea, we are English after all! It's strange that something I have been waiting for for so long has arrived and I'm so excited I can't stop smiling. I know tomorrow is going to be exhausting but we have done as much as we can to be ready so know there's just a few hours to wait.

We have been lucky enough to know for a while that we are moving so having been buying things when we have seen them offer meaning most things have been a bargain! Shops I would recommend for house items are Robert Dyas as they have some great weekly deals, The Range and the big supermarkets, Asda, Sainsbury's etc.

We also have had gifts from our parents, Dave's parents gave us a cabinet which his Mum spruced up and then gave us the leftovers to do a shelving unit my parents gave us that was looking a bit tired. I just wiped it down and gave it two coats of paint and it's looking great as you can see!



My other great find was from www.notonthehighstreet.com a bit expensive but great stuff! I found they do moving in pictures and not just standard stuff but they personalised it. It was £14.99 just for the print alone but I fell in love with it and couldn't help myself, the frame, which I think will look great on the cabinet I painted, was only £3 from Asda. I think these little touches make a home so worth every penny and as we rent and won't be there forever is a nice keep sake of our time there.


 Right I'm off see you on the other side of moving day!
