I am a massive fan of furniture; and to be honest my other half hates it. I like to have somewhere to display my ornaments and a comfy spot to sit while I am being jumped on by my three year old or feeding my baby.

I have tried in the last few years to keep on top of it but that is not always easy; especially now that we have two little ones running about the place. It's made even more difficult by me having little to no idea about when to plant bulbs and seeds to get the perfect coverage all year around, but I have been determined to try, especially since Squidgy started taking an interest!

You remember a while ago, way back in October, I shared a post for #Blogtober16 about my tattoos and piercings.
