Seasons Greetings!

No, we haven’t totally lost the plot at DIY Homefit! We do know it’s only October. But that does mean that if you want to do a bedroom makeover or kitchen refurbishment in time for Christmas then now is the time to get things moving!

Creating a Retro Kitchen

Queen Elizabeth II has become Britain’s longest reigning monarch, surpassing Queen Victoria’s reign of 63 years and 216 days. In 1953, millions of people watched her coronation on television and there were also hundreds of street parties all around the country. So much has changed since then, but it is an era that many people cherish and, as part of this, there is a growing trend for retro style kitchens.

Lunches they will Love!

Rod Stewart sums it up in the immortalised lyrics of Maggie May “It’s late September and I really should be back at school”. Nothing symbolises September more than the great big Back To School event!

If you have been looking through our website you will be well aware of the extensive range of replacement kitchen doors and wardrobe doors that DIY Homefit supplies. But in this blog we want to draw your attention to our equally wonderful range of bedroom furniture!

In the Pink

At DIY Homefit we received an email from Pinterest the other day entitled Think Pink. It declared that “Everything’s coming up roses… and coral, fuchsia and magenta shades” and included some example pins about how to add a delicate touch or a bright, bold statement to your home.

It got us thinking about which of our replacement wardrobe doors might work with the pink theme, and we were pleasantly surprised with the results!

Something in the Air

At DIY Homefit we have recently come across a relatively new phenomenon in travel accommodation, Airbnb. It is fundamentally an online community through which people can list, discover, and book unique accommodation around the world.

The Danger of Cookery Parties!

At DIY Homefit we were recently discussing cookery parties. Some readers may remember the forerunner of these – tupperware parties – that were so popular in the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s.

Splendid Summer Kitchens

Summer time and the living is easy! If you’re lucky enough to have some time off to spend at home this summer then it’s likely that the kitchen will feature highly in any plans that you have.
