My favourite time of year. I aspire to living small!

Decorate them: paint on them as stained glass with glass paint, or if you want something less permanent - paper cutouts! AT has had some beautiful paper window decorating posts in the past

One of my favourite air freshening combinations is spearmint with sandalwood oil. Seems to make everything smell nicer.

Work with the greys you have - the orange counters are lovely. Backsplash in grey or even BLACK?

I particularly like the dog on the bed

May be I need one for my husband. I can sleep through anything and love quietness when it arrives. My husband, on the other hand, can lie listening to a storm and keep waking going "what's that?" to a repetitive creak or a tap amid the noise.

Having said that, if I wake up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep, I do get up and lie on the couch with the TV sound too low to actually hear. Seems to work - so imagine these things are great

I still have my original iPad 1. I love it. Still. I loved mine so much I made a ton of iPad covers, kept some and gave the rest away to new iPad owners.

It is fabulous for reading. Fabulous for writing. Not bad at all for drawing.

I LIKE the fact that I don't have millions of screens open at once.
The Apps are fun - stick to the free ones to begin with, and read reviews (outside the App Store) before buying.

And ENJOY

Personally I think minimalist posters are things that adults like and they are not very kid friendly at all. Who are you decorating for?

@ IMONFIRE
Exactly!

I have two - both because I was being stingy. One was a fabulous French sofa that needed refurb. Found it on eBay, and bid and bid for it. Gave myself a limit. When I lost out, I decided that limit was ridiculous. I did the same thing bidding for a beautiful deco upright piano once. I regret both. Sometimes you just have to put the cash down.
