Our First Proper Christmas in an Edwardian House | Decorating a London Century Home After Renovation

Описание: This Christmas felt different.

In this video, we’re sharing how we dressed our Edwardian home for our first proper Christmas — not our first Christmas in the house, but the first without builders, bare floorboards, unfinished plaster and renovation dust.

After two years of restoring and renovating our century home, this was the first time the house truly felt settled enough to celebrate the season. From decorating rooms that were once building sites to making design choices that respect the character of an Edwardian house, we’re taking you through how we brought warmth, tradition and a sense of calm back into our home.

If you’re restoring a period property, living through renovation, or simply love old houses and their everyday realities, we hope this video gives you inspiration — and reassurance — that the dust does eventually settle.

Welcome to Our Edwardian Home, where we share the process of restoring, renovating and living in a century house in the UK — from room transformations and design decisions to the practical realities of managing a period home.

Thank you for being here and we hope you'll join our journey.

Welcome to Our Edwardian Home!

This is where we share modern life in a detached Edwardian house in London, England. From room transformations and renovations, to design choices and purchase decisions, and the everyday realities of living in, and managing, a spacious century home.

When we first purchased our large Edwardian house, the goal was to create a sustainable home, with modern facilities and eco benefits - which was low-cost to run, despite its size. Some things we restored, some we re-imagined, and we will share the lessons learned along the way.

Join us to see how we chose to develop our period home to comfortably support modern living, while retaining the charm and features that make it special.

If you enjoy period homes, interior design, and honest home DIY projects, we’d love for you to subscribe and follow along as we continue to develop and evolve our beautiful Edwardian home and garden in London, England.
