I love what you've done. Especially the back yard. I love the artificial grass. Brilliant choice! You took an old, dated tired house and turned it into a modern family home., also perfect for entertaining. tfs 💗

One bit of advice on the wardrobe build in the kids room. Add some molding to the edges to close up the gaps and make it look built in.

I love everything about it and honestly the kitchen is the single most beautiful thing I've ever seen!

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and all your ideas and tips with us they are so useful. It’s always so helpful to see something working , practical in a true environment, along with honest how it could perhaps be functional in a different way or what the pit falls were etc. These tv promotional ads can really suck you in ( as they’re designed too) and you end up buying something overpriced that actually doesn’t really work . I look forward to watching many more of videos. 🦋

I am with you when it comes to bespoke wardrobes,they are just far to expensive, your wardrobes are beautiful, I think that if you fill the gaps around the wardrobe and to the ceiling with mdf or something and paint it the same colour, they would look even more beautiful and bespoke like, just the idea, but everything is very tastefully done, I just love it, well done, you have very good taste

Thanks so much Barbara. They were so expensive! And yes that’s definitely something we could explore at a later stage. One day I’m not sure if my girls will want to share a room so perhaps then. I’ve seen lots of people on Instagram make their own bespoke wardrobes by using normal wardrobes and filling in and adding doors fit to size. They look great!

Our house is currently on the market so I'm looking everywhere for inspiration for the next house. Absolutely love the idea of painting everything white then just adding to it when you style a room. I've been a carpet person all my life but cannot wait to get a hard floor down in the next house. Much better for muddy paws! When you did your garage conversion did you change the garage door to a window or is it one of those sneaky ones where you can't tell from the outside?

@katie_ellison

4 жыл бұрын

Ah how exciting! Good luck with finding a new house and your house sale of course too. I think painting everywhere white is such a good idea, cause it then acts like a blank canvas and as you live in the house more you can start realising what colours you want etc. We had a blue one of our living room walls for ages and then we just changed it to a greeny grey colour just a few weeks ago, and it’s completely changed the feel of the room just by painting one wall (cause the rest of the walls are white). And I agree I love carpet but hard floors are so handy with kids and dogs aren’t they? 😂

I began following your vlogs when you moved from your old house. That was the first video of yours I ever watched. I have so enjoyed watching your new home to be transformed from outdated to modern. The transformation of the house is incredible, you and John should be so proud of bring the house back to life! Can I just add that the kitchen is goals🤩❤️ Have the old owners seen it done up? x

I love your home Katie and your choice of colours. I get a lot of inspiration from you. Just a question, do you have blinds in your conservatory? Does it not bother you that the neighbours can see right in? X

@katie_ellison

4 жыл бұрын

Hi Abbie no we don’t have blinds. We made the decision not to because our neighbours are really in their bedrooms at night when we are sat there if that makes sense. If I think about it too much it bothers me, but no I’ve got used to it. If they are sat downstairs they can’t see in. I wish we weren’t as close to our neighbours and so overlooked, but we wouldn’t have been able to afford a house like this in an area where we weren’t over looked. we’ve planted some trees but we will probably be 90 by the time they grow up enough to stop some of the visibility 😆😆😆 x

Your house is fab! Do you have/could you do video on what you were looking for/compromises when buying you're house... looking to size up in next year or 2 trying to make list of what we want vs need or can afford!

@katie_ellison

4 жыл бұрын

I could definitely do something like that. For us mainly it was about wanting something bigger in a nice area. We had to compromise on being overlooked. I love the area we live, but just wish we weren’t overlooked. But we’d never have been able to get a house of this size not being overlooked if that makes sense. Xx

Your home is so beautiful - are you able to share a range of how much the new conservatory cost please? (I know there are so many factors that contribute but I am a first time buyer and you have inspired me to have something similar) And what is the name of the type of glass used to manage temperature control so it’s not too hot in the summer or too cold in the winter? Thanks so much

It’s definitely not for everyone, i know some people love gardening etc, but I just find it so practical and easy for with the kids. We got ours from a local company but to be honest I don’t recommend them as for ages he didn’t come back and finish what he was supposed to. Luckily it all worked out in the end but he ignored us in the end when he hadn’t completely finished the work. It’s such a shame cause we used him for our old house as well. Xx

No it's fine. We try and train him to go on a patch of gravel round the side of our house instead of the grass but if he does go on the grass we just chuck some water over it. The grass is fine and dogs can wee on it, but you just need to be careful it doesn't start smelling. x

It’s mainly because I wanted to mention things I think have transformed our home and made us live in it better, or while renovating seemed a good investment. I do love our bathroom but it’s not changed the way we live in it or been useful if that makes sense! We didn’t change the layout too much. That been said there is one thing in there I’m going to put in the things I wish we’d done differently video and that’s the bath. We’ve both always wanted a freestanding bath cause we love them, but we had the choice of having the bigger version and we didnt cause there wouldn’t have been much space and I think they look better interior wise with more space. But it’s quite small and I wish we’d gone for the bigger one. I think bigger would have been comfier to soak in! X
