Making Order From Chaos

Its taken about a week, but I think we actually have the house almost straight now (although opening the cupboard under the stairs means risking being buried under an avalanche of stuff!). The house is freezing, I hadn't realised quite how efficient the condensing boiler was at our last cottage or our log burner for that matter, this is first on the list of jobs for this coming spring, I really cant do another winter without a log burner or I will die of hypothermia!

The cottage does now feel more like home, I have our familiar things up and round us, my butterfly collection, our old school clock ticking on the wall.

I love that we have a slightly bigger kitchen now, big enough to get our little table in. Sitting down for breakfast feels like such a luxury, more of luxury however would be a working cooker! Yes not 48 hours after moving in the old electric cooker that we paid £50 for packed up, well not so much packed up and decided to trip the electrics out every time we turned it on. Brilliant £50 well spent!

I think Father Christmas may have to come a little early this year, I would really like a gas cooker (I've had electric cookers before and have never really got on with them) a small range style one would be wonderful, we'll have to see what we can run too!
We where out and about the other day when we came across this cut old pine plate rack, I'm going to paint in cream, it will look wonderful when we come to re-vamp the kitchen. So much to do and we've only been here 2 weeks!

Hi, good luck with settling into your new home - you seem to be making a great start.

It's always great to get your work space sorted .. and elbow room is always a bonus.

Your place looks very sweet. It's lovely to make a house a home when you first move in.

Good luck in the garden too.
