Home Pinspiration

After enduring the many stresses of moving house, the date is set, papers are signed and you can start planning how it’s all going to look.

Before the launch of Pinterest in 2010, inspiration was mostly found in the depths of heavy catalogues and long afternoons spent traipsing around department stores exploring show kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms.

Thanks to Pinterest, our prayers have been answered by this genius visual bookmarking tool that helps you discover and share new ideas. Pinterest, A.K.A the black hole of procrastination *ahem, very important research*, is the holy grail of interiors and home improvement inspiration.

Create endless online boards to explore colour schemes, alternative trends, seasonal looks and a collection of your favourite DIY hacks. If you’re anything like us, this habit will quickly become an addiction.

Here at Shurgard we have rounded up our favourite home improvement boards to get you started.

Create

A bright, colourful board that is full of creative, easy ideas to make a happier home. It’s also a great place to find activities to do with your kids on rainy Saturday afternoons.

Love Home Bloggers

A collective Pinterest board contributed to by a range of home improvement bloggers. The board is a place to inspire and be inspired by creative ideas, tips and step-by-step guides. Each pin leads to a blog post; perfect when you need some extra guidance in furnishing your new place.

Bright Bazaar: Intriguing.Interiors

A page of blue hued beauty from interiors blogger Bright Bazaar. The board is full of eye candy, from dreamy looking bedrooms to light, airy kitchens. This is a lovely place to get lost in the beauty of interiors, furiously re-pinning as you go.

A Beautiful Mess

A tasteful and fashionable collection of thoughts and ideas on home inspiration. Pins vary from DIY home decor, craft inspiration, and individual boards dedicated to each room of the house.

While making your dream home a reality, self-storage can really help you out. Store furniture, boxes and belongings at Shurgard whilst you renovate. You can be safe in the knowledge that your possessions are secure, when you’ve got more important things to worry about.
