Introducing: Cushions From Cult Furniture
There are many things that can change the look of a room. Changing the lighting, adding photographs and prints, or adding a rug, can all make a room look different, even changing your radiators to column radiators can make a difference if you can’t afford a complete overhaul. Another thing that can soften the edges and add personality is through the use of cushions. Cushions can be used to add colour or pattern, to break up the block colour of your sofa, and, of course, to add extra comfort. We had a new sofa just before Christmas and our current cushions didn’t match, so I turned to Cult Furniture, who…

Creating your child’s perfect bedroom
A question – do you have children? Yes? Another question – when was the last time you had a good night’s sleep?

We were very lucky when we moved in, many of the period features were still in place, including original doors with the original rim locks still in place and the pigs ear hand rail on the stairs. Other features had unfortunately disappeared, the large sash windows had…

Showers are the best place to exfoliate, they invigorate and give you the perfect wake up call to start your day. They are the best option if you are short on time, and leave you feeling much cleaner than a bath ever could. In light of this, today’s post is firmly in support of the shower and some of the stylish shower options that you can have…

Making Additional Storage Space In Your Loft
When it comes to our homes, it seems that the one thing we can never have enough of is storage space. As our families grow, we need more and more space to store our belongings, our clothes, toys and all the other things that we seem to just accumulate. We resort to more cupboard space, under bed storage, we even put things in sheds and garages and hope for the best. And yet many of us ignore a storage solution that is literally right over our heads – our loft space. Although our loft space is something we can try to convert ourselves, the best jobs are completed by professional…
