A Summer of Sport

So another round of the Six Nations begins! If you are a rugby fan it can never come too soon! If not, you’re probably thinking “not again! The last one has only just finished!!”

Take Good Care of Yourself!

In this article we give you our Top Ten Tips for keeping your bespoke furniture in tip top condition. There’s no point spending time and effort on a kitchen refurbishment if you don’t then take good care of it afterwards.

Ground Control to Major Tim: DIY in Space!

Space is so topical at the moment! With the untimely death of David Bowie fresh in our minds, we have also been following the progress of British astronaut Tim Peake as he attempted to spacewalk from the International Space Station.  The first attempt was aborted on the orders of Ground Control after a water bubble was noticed in the helmet of Tim’s colleague Tim Kopra.

The Tardis Kitchen!

Whilst Christmas is still fresh in your minds, let’s be honest: how was it for you? Did your home resemble the magazine-perfect image of elegant decorations and wonderfully prepared food …. or was it all a rather chaotic mess?!

Get a Good Night’s Sleep

So, how are your New Year’s resolutions going? By the time we get to mid January many of them are sadly forgotten; good intentions swept aside by the tidal wave of everyday life. However, rather than giving up completely, it’s a good time to review them and perhaps pick just one or two areas to focus on improving during the year.

“Not Only – But Also”

If you’re reading this blog then you will be aware of at least some of the products and services that we offer at DIY Homefit. But we wanted to take this opportunity to introduce you to our full range of products and services, some of which may come as a surprise! Here are the six main products and services that we offer:

Let is Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!

Yet again the bets are on as to whether we will have a white winter. Despite the spell of unseasonably mild weather, we distinctly remember talk not long ago of a harsh winter filled with snow. As we feature the topic of upcycling from time to time in this blog, we wanted to look at some potential ways to upcycle old furniture – such as kitchen cabinets – this winter.

New Year’s Resolutions!

At the beginning of another year many of us are determined to make positive changes in our lives over the coming year.  For some, it will indeed be a year of change where we manage to form new habits and move forward in some areas of our lives. For others it may, sadly, be a case of “plus ca change”. The same list is written, then quietly forgotten within weeks …. if not days!

Do You Want To Build a Snowman?

As every parent of a young girl will know, the popularity of Frozen goes on and on! Frozen – for the uninitiated – was Disney’s smash hit film of 2013. It tells the tale of two Princess sisters – one of whom has the power of freezing – and features several earworm tunes including “Do You Want To Build a Snowman?”.

It fits!

Pantomime season is upon us ….. oh yes it is!! One of our favourites at DIY Homefit is Cinderella. The cast will always make a great show of the part where Prince Charming arrives at the family home to try the glass slipper on the feet of all ladies present. Despite the best efforts of Cinderella’s step-sisters, it is only when the shoe is tried on Cinderella’s foot that the cry “it fits” sounds forth!
