Our Glastonbury Festival 2022
Three years waiting. 5 days. 150km of walking. Fuelled by cider. Lots of sunshine - no mud (this is a first!!). This year's Glastonbury was the best EVER.
Here's our experience, squashed down in to less than 4 minutes.
It's a bit longer than most of my other films but hey. What the heck. This was worth the wait so I didn't want to miss any of it out.

Easter Egg Hunt Lockdown 2020
Переглядів 222 роки тому
Easter Sunday in Lockdown 2020 looked a little like this. Two little boys; hair still wet from their bath. Garden like a building site after our renovation; no grass and enough junk to rival Steptoe’s yard. But we had sunshine - and blossom in the trees. The air was warm and we had such a happy day 🌸 Little did we know that a year later, things wouldn’t have moved on that much. This Easter - 20...

The Blenheim Palace Christmas Lights Trail in Just 3 Minutes
Переглядів 8 тис.2 роки тому
We went to Blenheim Palace to see the Christmas Lights trail. It was December 2020, and the first time we'd been out of our village in months and months. Blenheim Palace Christmas Lights Trail is fairly expensive - but for the couple of hours we were there, we forgot about lockdown and Covid and were transported to a magical wonderland. I would highly recommend it, if you're thinking of getting...

A little guided tour around Dolly The Caravan (Mark 2)! Dolly has been such an amazing home-from-home for the last 4 and half years and since I completed our caravan renovation, she's such a cosy little van. But the time has come to say goodbye as she's now looking for a new owner. I thought I'd do a mini guided tour so we'd never forget her! You can read all about her on my blog - www.thetwink...

50th Birthday Weekend | Camping, Cocktails and Countryside Fun
Переглядів 1905 років тому
A little film to celebrate my favourite's 50th (yes, 50th!!!) birthday!! We went to a friend's farm, pitched our vans and tents and spent a lovely 48 hours in the middle of English countryside with some of our pals. Camping in a field, rather than a campsite is definitely one of our favourite things to do (as long as we have a working blender for banana daiquiris!!).

The Happy Crew did an amazing job of keeping all the kids entertained. There were lots of games and activities; ...

The She-Shed - Boarding and Insulating
Thanks for a very useful review 🎉
Any idea where I might purchase these flowers. They are absolutely beautiful but I can only find Laura Ashley real flowers online.
Wow for an absolute beginning this is great 👍
Trying to figure out how to antique home interiors big oval brass frames not sure if the brass is even real may be fake
Thank you.
Can I use this on copper table top ?
Great video top G 🙂😎😉👍🎉🤩
It's really the vinegar fumes that do the patina. If you want a very even and dark patina, polish the part first, then put in an enclosed container with vinegar. You can use a larger tupperware, and use a small spacer to lift the brass part out of the vinegar pool. The put the lid on and wait 8h.
Can we use brass ager on bronze??
Hello - yes the salt/vinegar solution works brilliantly on bronze as well as brass :) thelistedhome.co.uk/want-to-learn-how-to-age-bronze-quickly-with-no-harsh-chemicals/
Can I just submerge it the vinegar solution?
No - it's more the fumes from the liquid (than the actual liquid mix) that causes the metal to oxidise :)
Don't you need a vapour barrier over the insulation, before the shed is boarded out?
Love foam flowers ! 🥰
Thank you! I will be doing this on a new brass ferrule, that's going on an approximately 145 year old drawknife. You're part of history 👍😁
That's very exciting!!! Good luck with it 🙂
@@thelistedhome thanks :) It turned green (like slightly aged copper) and mottled pink. The ferrule came from a store known for its quality, and I removed all the lacquer on it with fine sandpaper prior to leaving in the solution. Cleaned it with acetone to remove grease too. Also tried with (I believe chlorinated) bleach for an hour upon suggestion from another commenter. Worked, but not very well. Back in the salt/vinegar solution. I found that the fumes are more important than the liquid, and I got the quickest effect when the closed jar was tilted with the piece on the "dry" side.
@@LitoGeorge Yes! The fumes are definitely more effective than the solution itself. Some of mine went very salmon coloured initially. I persevered and in some cases got an almost verdigris finish. The ones that I didn't like the finish on, I used Brasso to clean the surface and bring the shone back - then just started again and repeated the process. Some of my handles worked perfectly, first time round. Others took a couple of goes to get right. I've not had a fail yet! Great to hear that you had success in the end! :) thelistedhome.co.uk/how-to-age-brass-and-bronze-with-vinegar-and-salt/
@@thelistedhome thank you very much. Read the article, liked it ☺️ I have found that I can remove lacquered brass coatings by boiling the vinegar in a pot with a lid, no salt required, and it will come off by itself. I have left it in the solution and reboiled several days over 4-5 days, and find extraordinary rust build up on the items (hinges and drawer pulls) and a simple rinse in come water took all that of, revealing the brass underneath in an aged way. I also have the verdigris look on other brass items because I'm told that the copper in brass has started to disintegrate from the acid. All good. TX for the online camaraderie 👍
That proud and satisfied smile at the end makes me happy. Yes, you did a good job. Easy tutorial to follow. You could have elaborated a bit about how to divide several colors and shapes. Yet, we can learn by watching. Some people need 10 minutes to convey the same message. Glad you were able to keep it concise.
Really beautiful ❤️❤️
Beautiful wreath. Very good for a quick video 🌹
Zac
I remember seeing this on Instagram! Thank you for sharing on here as I forgot to save it 🙈
Thanks so much Luna!
nice job 👍👍
Thank you!
Thank you x

How far away from your sink do you have it?
Hi April - it's over the other side of the kitchen.
@Caro Davies may be stupid but how did you plumb it in. I'm buying this fridge freezer and I'm soclost on it x
Thanks for the information, I have been looking the about this washing machine. 😀
I was there !!
Whenever I try to rotate it my hair rotates with it how do I prevent my hair also rotating?
Gostei.
Hi I’ve just bought it today but my understanding is that you have set up the water filter before you can get water and ice Is this correct??
Hi Martin - yes - you need to connect the fridge to a water supply in order to get water and ice :)
@@thelistedhome Yes I’ve set it all up and water is working but I take it you need to wait for a while for the ice to work?
@@martinbeach1161 Hi - yes - I think ours took a couple of days until the ice compartment was totally full. You'll hear the fridge making really odd noises as the ice is being created and falls into the holder! Gave me the shock of my life! But once it's full, and you use it up, it will just keep replenishing itself.
@@thelistedhome Fantastic thank you for your reply’s Will be in touch if I need you hahaha x
@@thelistedhome You don’t need to do anything else do you in order to create the ice?
Ccsythf3ydr
Is there a water filter?
Yes - there is.
@@thelistedhome thanks I have found my new fridge :)
@@Wieczor178 Ours is still going strong! We love it :)
Amazing tutorial! I used this to make a half circle table topper, I glued the sides of the accordion to a piece of cardstock instead of gluing them together to form the circle. It worked perfectly 🥰
That's a great idea! Thanks for sharing! x
where are you from ? i want my wife to speak with your accent.
Hi! Are you using the Babyliss Big Hair 1000? Or is it another one?
Hello! I'm still using the same one - it's still working really well :)
Is it just regular wallpaper? Was dolly's orginal surface that plastic vinyl? Just curious as I want to upgrade mine but I don't know what will work on the surfaces long term.. I have to say she is a beauty! Lovely job x
This helped me create these for my party ! Thanks a lot !
That's great!
@@thelistedhome 😃
Would love to see the finished product
Really good video. No idea why i'm watching it because i'm bald, but maybe in the future my hair will grow back and i can use one of these :D
Hahaha!! Thanks so much Andy :) This really made me smile!!
@@thelistedhome Glad it made you smile. My days work is complete now :-)
So beautiful, thank you 😊
I ordered this book!!! I am so excited to get it in my hands!!!!
It’s absolutely BEAUTIFUL 🤩 Still one of my favourites. The illustrations are really beautiful ☺️
Is that a Project Timber shed by any chance. I have such a shed and the tongue and groove has been coming apart. Do you have a similar issue?
May I ask how your shed is now that some time has passed (I am thinking of doing the same thing)?
Is the mattress still holding up? I just purchased a leesa recently.
Does power is the same like old one?
Hi. I am just intrigued how much you considered the weight gain to the van during the restoration? I'm doing something similar and wanted to know your thoughts?
Hi Gaz, we replaced the flooring with laminate - which was the biggest change in terms of weight. As this is fairly standard practice, we didn't consider it to be a problem. The only other changes were cosmetic - just wallpaper and paint - so there was very little extra weight gain. You can see everything we did over on the website - www.thetwinklediaries.co.uk/category/caravan-love/caravan-tips/
What are the measurements
watch from 0:46 - it tells you the measurements we used, although you could change this and make them as big or small as you like.
Can't figure out how to make the ice... Do pour water into the "ice maker"??
Hi I love the video lots of help . If you don't mind me asking but why did you use the wool insulation and not the thick bold insulation you can buy. And if a lot of heat escapes through the roof why didn't you insulate. I know it's a lot of questions but I am looking to do the same next summer .but I do like the end result.all the best .
Hi there, I'm considering purchasing it to take with me and dry+brush my hair at the gym. Do you think is it possible to use it without drying the hair with the hairdryer first? TIA!
Lica K hi there - yes! It’s definitely possible but it takes much longer - especially if you have long or thick hair :) my hair is really thick so takes ages - which is why I blast it with a hairdryer first. But it’s definitely possible 😊
@@thelistedhome great, thank you so much. So, it has been 2 years since you made this video. Are you still using and satisfied with this Babyliss?!
@@licak1660 Yep! Still using it! Although my hair is much longer now :)
@@thelistedhome thank you so much, dear. I will get one for me then! 😘
