The Boots App. Unexpectedly it’s SO handy!
When Boots got in touch and asked me to review their app I admit I was about “um… yes… but i’m not sure you want me to. I just don’t really DO shopping on my phone”.

The Tiny Bedroom Makeover – it’s the Grand Reveal!

You can follow all the Tiny Bedroom Makeover posts here, but this is the end result. And we’re a bit pleased with how it finally turned out… Remember – this is where we began.
