Homestyle Magazine - November 2019

In this issue

I love this time of year. As the nights start to draw in it offers the perfect excuse to spend more time indoors. And without the lure of the garden and days out, it’s often the time of year that I get stuck into those decorating projects, from a paint refresher, to smaller updates such as finally getting round to that gallery wall. Dare I say it, Christmas is also very much on our radar at HomeStlye HQ, and now is a great time to work through your snag list to make sure your home is guest-ready. From clearing out the spare room and making it inviting for visitors to updating your hallway, see our style tips on page 77. If you rent your property, we have advice from Instagram star Medina Grillo, whose creative decorating tips will make sure your space feels just like home. Find it on page 86. Looking to update your living room? Check out our on-trend schemes on page 108. Elsewhere there’s more great real homes, from cover star Lauren’s chic and stylish space on page 28 to Paola’s vibrant abode on page 16, with plenty of ideas you can try in your own space. In food this month there’s great weeknight dinners on page 116 and a mouth-watering selection of Canadian sweet treats on page 120. Have a fantastic month,
