Your cottage is just beautiful. It's perfect in every way. I love the way your cat is so comfortable being carried about.

[@shelleyscloud3651]

What a happy fur baby! 🥰 Does Echo EVER stop purring? I don’t blame him, I’d be purring too if I found myself in such a cozy home with two such lovely human staff!

[@Livingthelifeyoulove]

Hahaha, the purr deactivates but only when he's turned off 🤣 Thanks lovely 💛

[@TheSabinewalkden]

Your home is stunning! You have certainly taken the time and effort into thinking about how you want it to look. Everything is so tranquil yet very homely too. You have used several outlets that I use for my purchases. I had to smile when your showed some items of furniture which just about squeeeezed into a small space. Sometimes you have to spend a little bit of time to find the right item. I came across your channel for the first time today and look forward to catching up on some of the videos. Thank you for sharing.

[@annatiarec]

Lovely home! Thank you for letting us see what you have done. Its very peaceful! Well Done!

Thank you Cathy! I've felt very drawn to more natural colours recently and it definitely reflects in our home x

I was thinking a console table might be a suitable fit for your reuter area then I saw your dressing table and it seemed narrow enough as well. Love your house.

I discussed minimalist with my wife once. Her reply: I need stuff!

[@Lulu-oi9ue]

As a cheap fix for kitchen countertops is get contact. Here in Australia you can buy from hardware or cheap homewares shop marble or other designs look contact paper to cover old countertops.

[@Livingthelifeyoulove]

Thank you! We’ve looked into it in the past but decided in this instance it wouldn’t be worth it so we will save up and change the kitchen at some point 😌 I’ve seen kitchens done with what you said though and it makes such a difference!

[@gemmafry3859]

Your cottage looks lovely, also your cat is adorable!! Could you do a what you eat in a week video if possible or a food haul? And I’d love to see what you’d recommend for hair/skin (beauty haul) xx

Gorgeous cottage. Charlotte at Milk and Honey Life on KZbin covered her dark kitchen worktops with light contact paper. It worked well.

[@kimballentyne9069]

Thanks for sharing. Hope you are happy in your cosy house practical and tranquil home. Remove candles, incense and plants - they are toxic and harmful to yourselves and your pet son, Echo. Suggest a hop in litter box - practical, hygienic and saves money on the litter sand. Also buy LED strips - they are practical and really do reduce electricity costs; some come with remote controls or you can use a dimmer switch. You can glue the LED strips (come in different colours) onto a piece of painted or varnished wood and stick it on to the ceilings, beams, walls etc. Usually come with a guarantee. You can also buy some coloured materials or scarfs from ebay or 2nd hand charity shops and place them on your bed or cut out your old jumpers and sew them together and place them on your bed. No wastage. Many colours mix with white and cream.

[@Citistar]

Such a beautiful and tranquil home! Have you come across those peel and stick vinyls thats you can use to cover countertops and furniture? Some fantastic small businesses in Etsy do them and it could be a cheap and easy intermediate fix for the dark granite counters, and could really brighten the kitchen. You can also get a tiled version to cover a backplash.

[@cake7380]

Hello :) your home is beautiful but I was wondering how you're able to trust your cat to not burn itself on those candles or knock them over? I got a ragdoll kitten 1.5 years ago but I stopped using candles then incase he got too close without me seeing or knocked them over and sets my apartment on fire. My kitten is really curious and likes to knock things over on purpose (he doesn't do this as often anymore, only when he's having a tantrum)

[@Livingthelifeyoulove]

He doesn't tend to go in any of the places with candles unless he's attention seeking or hungry, in which case we just play with him until he sleeps or feed him, haha! I never leave him unattended with any candles, even if i'm just nipping upstairs I always blow them out. I also don't tend to light them when he's in a playful mood, only usually in the afternoons when asleep (until about 8pm). He's not showed any interest in them so far which is a relief :)
