It’s week 2 of the One Room Challenge, and my backyard makeover is starting to come together. After last week’s post, I sat in the garden for a few hours coming up with a plan of action.

Living room tour ☺️
Some of my favourite charity/thrift shop finds ☺️
Current toy situation in our Victorian terrace house where space and storage are at a premium. Normally a few baby dolls can be seen lounging around on the sofa, but everything can easily be put away - at least for now. ☺️
Finally repopulating my grid after a year of neglect. Who knows, maybe by next year I’ll have figured out how to make reels 😆
I don’t know what I’m going to do when Sophie figures out how to open these doors 😆
10/10 would recommend having a puzzle/board games table in the living room - especially if it’s as pretty as this one 👌🏼 @maisonsdumondeuk #mymdm #wonderfuleveryday
