I love this so much! Real life, real laughs, no airs, no posturing, no “look how much prettier my house is than yours- don’t you feel envious?” kind of thing! I love your home, all the original details, and layout! You’d be a cool neighbour!❤
@@Thatsinteresting363 thank you I’ve worked so hard my body’s had just caved in from all the decorating and 14 videos I can’t believe it have a wonderful Christmas 🎄 xx
The ceiling light in the hallway is beautiful! A friend of mine got tired of everyone having stuff sitting at the bottom of the stairs. She purchased slimline containers for each family members things and staggered them on the stairs leading up the stairs. It made things look so much neater and each family member was responsible for taking their container of “ stuff” with them when they headed upstairs. Plus if your front door faces the stairs it will be nicer for you when you come home each day not seeing a cluttered mess as soon as you open the door.
I’m subscribed and can’t wait to go along with you on your rejuvenation journey. I’m so sorry for your loss. Picking yourself up and choosing to change your outlook and path is the most courageous and inspiring thing! You will be a role model for many!
Mel the best of luck with your new blog and with the positive steps you are courageously taking to improve your life after such loss. It is'nt easy I know as I've been there. You have your daughters and your art , I had music and family and friends. Life must be lived , we are so lucky to have the health to live it . I wish you so much and look forward to more honest -to- God realistic videos. Onwards and upwards Mel you can do it.
I came across your video whilst scrolling in search of something “real” a glimpse into a life that has not been staged and dressed to look like it should be in a magazine. I love your home that is filled with memories, artwork and creations that have been done by yourselves it feels cosy lived in. Look forward to more of your videos 😊
Absolutely delighted to see a home with wonderful artwork and lots of interesting ‘stuff’. And it is obvious people actually live in it- I love it. Enjoy the renovations.
I love the stained glass in your hall and front door. Many thanks for showing us round. Also, your art is very good. Will look forward to following your journey. All the best.
Hello Mel. It has been a pleasure watching your first vlog. Your home is a happy family place and one that I would be very content in. Plenty of places to display yes and you daughters works of beautiful creative art and your light is amazing. Please let us know when you have some for sale. With regard to your future I wish you all the very best and will be beside you during your travels forward into a World with such alot to offer. Love and Hugs Lesley in Cambridgeshire xxxxx
Thank you Lesley I'm so happy I started this with the help from my daughter and yes there is so much art and other stuff I will be creating and show casing as soon as I find my feet. I love making things beautiful so glad you appreciate us. Take good care x
Congratulations on your first video! I've just subscribed and am looking forward to hearing all about how you will rejuvenate your home and life. Best of luck of Sydney, Australia 🌷
Hey, well done. Such an honest real video of a real family home full of art..normality and problem areas... just like most of our own homes. Your art, especially your lamps are wonderful..colourful and uplifting. Your daughters are obviously very talented artists too. Suggestion..I am no expert in IT but set up an online shop for your art...sell what you can feel you can let go. Put the cash into house renovation. Frame your film posters. Could you let those go with the connection to your late husband. Brave of you to do the blog and to make changes in your life.
Thank you for your lovely comments and I will be selling prints and lamps as soon as I get more confident with the blogs and technology. Hope you keep watching xx
oh what a lovely home,mum-please show us the progress of the house renovation-love the trees- i live in the hills,of Victoria ,AUSTRALIA,and am widowed-making a house ,a home is the best ...CUTE DOG-WE LOVE THE MONARCHY,AND ARE EXCITED TO HAVE KING CHARLES,AND QUEEN CONSORT CAMILLIA HERE TODAY
Hello, just found you, I have subscribed. Thank you for sharing your home with us, a real life tour of a lovely family home. Keep the videos coming. ❤️😀🥳
Your video just popped up out of nowhere and I found it was quite interesting. Just an observation about the purple paint in the kitchen. I am not knocking your love of purple but it does make the kitchen look oppressive and dark. In regards to the shelf unit what about putting that big timber bookcase from the kitchen into the lounge room , even if you do paint it later. You could then move those more open shelves into the kitchen? Who ever is behind the camera needs to move it a little more slowly as they pan around the room.
Hi thank you for your comments are really appreciated. I have been thinking about the purple walls too defo considering. The lounge really needs priority to bring back some family spirit so the bookshelf idea is great for a temporary feature as I would eventually like shelves. We are just learning and friends have mentioned the speedy camera so thanks again for taking the time to feedback such positives. Please keep watching, like and share and hope to chat again soon, Mel xx
I enjoyed seeing your home. It is nice to see something that isn't grey and nothing but DFS and Ikea boring interiors tbh Looking forward to seeing more content from you. x
The shelves in the kitchen might look good painted a brighter colour, love the lamp you made which was on top of the fridge, living room table top is gorgeous
Greetings from Australia, always lovely to have a nosy through other peoples homes. Just a little declutter would make your space perfect, it’s a lovely space.
I live in Croatia and it is too Hot for me..i wish o can live in UK ,but stupid Brexit and might be too expensive to get home...in Italy is cheap but TOO Hot..

The shelves in the kitchen might look good painted a brighter colour, love the lamp you made which was on top of the fridge, living room table top is gorgeous

Thank you so much ahead see you in the next episode x
Greetings from Australia, always lovely to have a nosy through other peoples homes. Just a little declutter would make your space perfect, it’s a lovely space.
Greetings from the UK and thanks for sharing that with me, take care
Great house!
thanks!
I am looking forward to watching your journey. Also, you have really inspired me to do the same.
good stuff go for it xx
Thanks for sharing...!
❤
Declutter and get some warm colours in your home❤
But I have so much stuff. I'm on it!! thanks, Mel xx
Maybe have the film posters valued - may bring in some money for your updates 😀
Yes thanks I agree but would like to keep some for sentiment. They have been in storage so long. Any tips about where to get them valued.
@@melwilkinsonvlogs I understand. An auction house can advise, they usually come out and do free valuations.
Thank you!
Paint brick fireplace white??
Thank you for that but as we rent we're not allowed but yes that would look good.
The purple is too dark
Spring makeover will resolve that and thank you for watching.
@@melwilkinsonvlogs
No it's not, i love that colour. Good luck with absolutely everything ✌🏼
I live in Croatia and it is too Hot for me..i wish o can live in UK ,but stupid Brexit and might be too expensive to get home...in Italy is cheap but TOO Hot..
Brexit!!!!makes me so angry and Croatia is a place i'd love to visit. Thank you for your comment and please check out the next 2 and more to come xx
