Everyone Needs Playtime

In our hectic, modern lives, many of us focus so heavily on work and family commitments that we never seem to have time for pure fun. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we stopped playing.

When we carve out some leisure time, we’re more likely to zone out in front of the TV or computer than engage in fun, rejuvenating play like we did as children. But play is not just essential for kids; it can be an important source of relaxation and stimulation for adults as well.

There doesn’t need to be any point to the activity beyond having fun and enjoying yourself. By giving yourself permission to play with the joyful abandon of childhood, you can reap oodles of health benefits throughout life.

Exterior Colour Schemes

I spent the morning putting some "mood boards" together, mainly to keep myself focused, however, I thought you might like to see them. 

The inspiration for both houses comes from these lovely old Victorian homes which I found while browsing online. The first is for the M & D house.


Although the Beacon Hill house will be attempted further down the line, I still wanted to have something to keep me on track. I figure if I have it on paper and I like it, I shouldn't need go do any further browsing.

So what do you think? Do you think the exteriors colours will suit the interiors I spoke about in the previous posts?
