Timothy Dunn London Oud Home Candle

Timothy Dunn London Oud Home Candle* £34.00

I love luxury candles and I have a big collection of various scents, but... 'Oud' by Timothy Dunn London definitely stands out from the rest of my stash :) It is inspired by the 'majesty of ancient Persian cities and the intense heat of the Middle Eastern desert' and it smells like a luxurious oriental palace. Simply beautiful!

Anthropologie Wishlist

I just noticed that Anthropologie are offering free delivery on all orders until the 2nd of March and I couldn't resist placing a cheeky order. I got one of their Monogram Mugs (£8.00) and I can't wait for it to arrive. I adore their tableware and their designs are simply stunning! There are many more lovely pieces I would love to add to my collection and you can see the more affordable ones below :)

Cute tea strainer with a doughnut trinket :)

I very rarely blog about my 'non beauty finds', but I really love this little tea strainer and I wanted to share some of the pictures I took today :) I have been looking for a nice infuser on ebay and I stumbled across a range of Kilo ones, with cute trinkets attached to the chain. I went for a doughnut with pink icing and white sprinkles and I absolutely love it!

Neom Love Candle Review

Neom Love Candle* £42.00

I am not picky when it comes to candle scents. I love sweet, floral, spicy, herbal, woody etc... I do have a couple of specific favourites though and most of them are from Neom. That's why I was really excited, when their new 'Love' Home Candle landed on my doorstep. As soon as I opened the box, I was pleasantly surprised with the scent. It isn't something I would normally expect from Neom. 'Love' is much sweeter than the rest of their candles, which is a good thing for those who find Neom's scents too herbal and overpowering. 

Marie Reynolds Ti Amo Candle Duo

Created by a professional beauty therapist Marie Reynolds, the 'Ti Amo' candle duo would make a lovely gift for Valentine's Day. It consists of two massage candles: Indulge and Passion and comes in a lovely gift box. Each candle burns for approximately 10 hours and contains 5oz of wax.

Christmas Decor DIY: Reusing Empty Neom Candle Jars

 I really wanted to reuse some of the gorgeous silver pine cones and leaves from the Christmas bouquet I received from Debenhams recently and I came up with this simple idea :) 

Christmas Yankee Candles

I burn candles nearly every day, especially during the colder months. I usually go for therapeutic scents from Neom or Aromatherapy Associates, but... I have some Yankee Candles and cheaper options in my stash too and burn them when my husband is home. He loves vanilla and cinnamon, so the two new additions to my collection have his approval :)

Debenhams Christmas Flowers

When it comes to flowers, I am usually obsessed with them in Spring/Summer and possibly Autumn, but for some reason I take a break from buying bouquets in Winter. I have no idea why, because as soon as this beautiful arrangement arrived at my doorstep, I felt the need to fill the full house with fresh flowers. 

Renovating and decorating a shower room

The shower room can be one of the toughest 'rooms' to decorate. You can either dismiss it as not being important enough to do much work on; or if you use it every day, you’ll want it to be as pleasant as possible. In a way, the smaller the room the more difficult it is to decorate. But there’s no need to feel defeated. Read on for some tips, that might work for you.

Neom Scents Of Christmas Gift Set

If I had to pick one thing I could treat every family member to this Christmas, it would be this gorgeous NEOM Scents Of Christmas Set*(£42.00). You really can't go wrong with it! It features three beautifully scented candles and comes in an elegant gift box. There is something for everyone and all three scents are perfect for the festive season.  I must admit, I started burning all of these already, because I couldn't wait till Christmas :)

NEOM Real Luxury Home Candle

Neom Real Luxury Home Candle* (£39.50)

You all know how much I love NEOM and their candles :) I declared my love for them many times and I probably sound like broken record :) When NEOM's best selling 'Real Luxury Home Candle' landed on my doorstep, I couldn't be more excited. My first NEOM purchase was a Real Luxury shower gel, so lighting the candle brought back some lovely memories. It's amazing, that fragrances have the ability to do that! 

Beautiful Bathrooms

I probably spend too much time planning my dream bathroom, especially since I discovered Pinterest :) I could browse the images all night, until I fall asleep with my face stuck to my iPad, haha. If you love home decor, you might find this guest post interesting.

New Bedroom Decor: Yellow, Grey and White

I mentioned in some of my previous posts, that I redecorated our master bedroom, but still had some work to do. Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to change the colour of the walls or the flooring yet, but... if we decide to stay here for longer than 6 months, I will paint the wall light grey and get gorgeous white wood flooring. Anyway... Here is the bedroom after a little makeover. I will make sure to list everything I bought :)

Aromatherapy Associates Revive Candle Review

Candles are something I absolutely adore. I always have. I remember being told off for burning candles as a teenager, because my room was full of them. I secretly dreamed about marrying someone who shares my love for candles, but unfortunately... my husband isn't a fan, unless it is a simple vanilla, or cinnamon scent. Well... I will just enjoy my candles alone :) When I found out that Aromatherapy Associates are bringing back their candles, I  was very excited, especially about the Revive one. Their Revive range is my favourite. 

Bloom & Wild Flowers - Delivered Through Your Letterbox

I couldn't believe my eyes, when I saw this 60cm long box pop through my letterbox. Literally! I am not even kidding! I was kindly sent the flowers by Bloom & Wild, a brand new subscription service, offering fresh flower deliveries through your letterbox. Sounds crazy and amazing, doesn't it? 

Home Decor: Why I love wood flooring...

I really love the look of wooden flooring and since we moved to a house with carpets in every room, I can't stop thinking about all the pros of having laminate. It is very easy to keep clean, more friendly for those with allergies and... it simply looks better in my opinion. 

Pretty Flowers Make Me Happy

Flowers are something I absolutely adore and they never fail to put a smile on my face. I have fresh flowers in the house most of the time, especially in Summer. I usually separate big bouquets into smaller ones and put single flowers in small vases to make all rooms look pretty :) This time I took a couple of flowers out and put them in a big clear jar, on top of some magazines and books. I think I spend too much time on Pinterest :) haha. If I could have multiple bouquets of fresh flowers in every room, I would!

Home decor: photography and prints

I am a "home decor enthusiast" and I love to spend my free time decorating our house, even if I am only making small changes. We moved 4 times in the past 5 years, so I am always busy in the home decor department :) I am still working on the living room in our new house and I recently started decorating the walls, because they seemed really boring. We painted the main wall with a gorgeous mint green colour and it made a big difference. 

Abahna Mandarin And Sicilian Bergamot Reed Diffuser review

Abahna Mandarin and Sicilian Bergamot Reed Diffuser* £36.00

Hot weather usually stops me from burning candles, so I placed a couple of new reed diffusers in the house to fill it with a gorgeous fragrance. From three different diffusers I am currently using, Abahna's offering is definitely the most powerful scent. It is really strong and ...utterly gorgeous!
