On her channel you\u2019ll find lots of mum hacks, cleaning, cooking and organisation, as well as day-in-the-life videos. Emily and her family recently moved to their forever home and are in the process of revamping and sharing renovation and decoration stories along the way.<\/p>\n\n<p>For her home, Emily chose <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/collection\/wool\/chunky-wool\/wool-milkshake\"><strong>Alternative\u2019s Wool Milkshake<\/strong><\/a> to create that all-important homely feel with a beautifully soft yet hardwearing carpet. An all-natural, warm and snuggly wool flooring choice, ideal for bedrooms and children playing on floors. Wool is a family-friendly fibre \u2013 a natural insulator, easy to clean and has that bounce back factor!<\/p>\n\n<p>We chatted to her about her flooring choices, interior inspiration, and the decoration tips.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Alternative Q&amp;A\u2019s<\/h2>\n\n<h3>Describe your home, when did you move in and who do you share it with?<\/h3>\n\n<p>We now live in our <strong>\u201cforever home\u201d<\/strong> if that is a thing anymore.

It\u2019s a mock Tudor style home on the exterior and had a very 90s style interior, albeitimmaculately finished as the previous owners were decorators. In November 2021 we began a large renovation, adding a large modern zinc black box on the back of the house.<\/p>\n\n<p>We live here with our 3 sons who are 6, 8 and 11, oh and our Cavapoo named Kiki.

We used a fun <strong>Woodland theme<\/strong> for his bedroom (to celebrate his love for the outdoors, my Canadian roots) and he still loves it now. His teepee bedhead is quite the talking point.<\/p>\n\n<p>And then downstairs we have just put down around 170 sqm of engineered wood which runs throughout our hallway, games room, gym, open plan kitchen, pantry, dining and living space.
