The one you’ve all (maybe) been waiting for – the house tour. OK, so it’s not a room-by-room reveal of the whole place, MTV Cribs style, but it’s as much of a house peek as you’re probably going to get. You can always see bits and pieces of the inside of my home on Instagram stories, but this is a bit more of a detailed update with a look at some of the furniture and accessories that I’ve bought over the past year.
Filming this house update has actually given me low-level anxiety because I’ve realised that there are loads of quite important things we’re still missing – we only have lights in a few of the rooms, for example. Everywhere else is being lit by ugly holder bulbs that have been left poking out of the ceilings and walls. It looks like we’re about to redecorate, except that we’re not. We don’t have the energy to go to the shop to buy the paint, let alone actually paint the walls!
Although I’m still not sure whether we would paint, if we redecorated. Part of me fancies a spot of wallpaper, but then on the other hand, the ceilings and architectural details in the house are so lovely and I worry that paper would detract from them. Paint keeps things nice and clean. Decisions, decisions – this is why nothing gets done. We haven’t even started the downstairs loo, and that was supposed to be the “practice room”.
Anyway, on with the show – there’s an extre...
