Fit Girl Gift Guide

Recently while I was washing up tupperware for the millionth time that week the thought crossed my mind 'would it be weird to ask someone for decent tupperware for Christmas?' Probably, but I would seriously love it as a present. This post started to formulate itself in my head, so here's a gift guide for the fitness obsessed girl in your life if you're looking for some inspiration :)

Gym wear. Leggings, vests and tee's. Hoodies, cycle wear, running gear, hiking gear. Socks, headbands or accessories if you aren't sure on sizes :)

Vouchers - For a new type of class, bootcamp or experience. Or again for clothes, we can never have enough gym clothes.
Like this groupon for yoga classes
Food. We are obsessed with eating. A meal plan subscription, or a veg box delivery. Vouchers for a health food shop, or a website.

Kit - Depending on their activity of choice of course, yoga mat, wrist supports, knee supports, palm guards, chalk bag, reflective stuff for winter running, bike accessories, touchscreen gloves.

A sports massage, or spa day. Something to soothe those aching muscles and tired feet is always appreciated!

A shiny new gym bag. Who can resist? I prefer a backpack myself, but there are so many styles out there, and there are some really cute options.

Equipment - skipping rope, weights, kettlebell, pull up bar, resistance bands...what do they want to have for their home gym or kit bag?

Foam roller, or massage ball, or other rehab stuff. I don't know about you but I consistently have something aching. This small set might be perfect for someone short on space. Like me, if anyone has not got my Christmas present yet :)

Some other little funny gifts or stocking fillers...
Recipe books - Paleo, low fat, vegan (try this list from no meat athlete for ideas) healthy. 

Mini toiletries - Awesome for the gym bag, the little gift sets of shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, face wash, moisturiser. Buy cruelty free of course from places listed in this post :)

Hair ties. Seriously, I can never have enough hair ties. nice quality ones that won't snag hair, or some of the invsibobble ones that don't leave a crease in your hair, maybe some headbands and dry shampoo.

Tupperware, or any food storage. Shakers, flasks, small plastic posts of snacks....ones that don't leak and won't break after 3 uses. Or like this set from Argos...look at all the sizes!!

Have a good Christmas! xx

Flooring is down!

We have now reached the monumental moment where we can get out of bed, go downstairs, through the living room and into the kitchen without having to put shoes or slippers on! Break out the bunting this has been a long time coming!  If you follow me on Instagram (@itsagreenhouse) you may have seen my excitable video tour of our different flooring options, but there is a bit more detail on our choices, the cost and the installation. The kitchen was the first room to get flooring down - tiles and underfloor heating installation and why we chose these tiles for the kitchen are all covered here . However I realise I didn't actually go into the cost of the tiles (only the underfloor heating). The tiles in here were actually on clearance so we stocked up and got enough for the hall and downstairs loo too - they were £10 per pack which covers 1 square metre. We over purchased as they are on clearance so we didn't want them to be discontinued, so we spent about £100 o...

Book Review

I read a lot, and since it’s back to school time and the weather is getting cooler I thought it was a perfect time to start sharing some of the books  I've  read so you might read them too!  Revival – Stephen King I am biased as I could read Stephen King all month, but this was another really good book that draws you in and gets into your head. As usual it’s not a book for anyone who  doesn't  like violence, death or gory details in their reading, as he  doesn't  spare your imagination in a lot of the novel. The start was interesting, set in a rural American town and from the perspective of a child. I found the characters really easy to get behind and you get the sense of gathering danger, tension and something brewing. The relationship with the preacher and the effect it has on the characters throughout their lives is a constantly evolving story, at the start you think he might be the good guy but that soon comes into question. The midd...

Winter Bucket List

It's getting colder and the nights are drawing in, I love this time of year before the novelty of winter wears off! I'm still loving my new scarf and the fact I can wear boots again. Talk to me in a month when it's rain again . Lets be honest we don't get much of an Autumn most years it's chilly and nice for about 2 weeks then it's cold and wet until March. This year I wanted to focus on the positives though! A winter bucket list of things I want to do this year over the colder months. Watch a fireworks display. I know, me, firework phobic who once hid under the family car after bolting from my parents at a firework display. I figure it's time to get over it now I'm a big girl. This year I'm going to go watch a big display maybe with my niece and nephew (so I have to be brave not to freak them out) or maybe just Tom and I. Either way I want to wrap up warm and ooh and ahh at fireworks, not hide at home like the last 20 years. Cycle more. I rece...
