Sometimes I like to share things about my life on here that don’t relate to DIY or our house renovations, and didn’t involve something I ate or a place I visited. They are just musings about life in general, about my life personally, and on topics that I feel are best described as personal. This is where you can find posts like the one where I talk about completely changing my career, or my posts looking back on each year or ahead to the next, or even my random musings about why photographs are so important to me!

Welcome to Make Life Simpler!

I'm a 30-something working mum living in rural Yorkshire with my husband, our young daughter and our pets. This blog is about my attempt at creating a nice home and life for us with minimal effort and time.

Here you can find simple recipes and meal planning, easy DIYs and crafts, home renovations on a budget, simple sustainability, jaunts around Yorkshire and further afield, and life in the countryside.

I hope you might find inspiration in some of the things I share and give them a go. Let me know if you do! Read More…
