last year this is what the lounge looked like..............please note: horrid gas fire ( sorry if i offend anyone who has one, and loves it ) and the horrid textured wallpaper....when we moved in almost 3 years ago we decided just to paint over it for now....well for now came to an end 4 weeks ago, i was eating my breakfast one morning and decided i can no longer live with this wallpaper or that gas fire.................so after hastily eating my porridge (still in my p.j.s) i decided to strip the walls........ i rang my other half at 3pm (still in my p.j.s) and told him of my adventures with a fish slice....(yes a fish slice makes a great wallpaper stripper) and i have arranged for someone to take out the gas fire......... after the shock...he was very happy with the hard work i had done (well so he says)........
and walls are going to be painted.....more shelfs are going up....and ornaments and mirrors are being moved around........
and as you can see in the above pic..........fabrics and a box of tricks have arrived from cath k.......(please note matilda the whippet has to sniff and inspect anything and everything that comes into the house) yes i shall be making new curtains for the lounge...that will be sometime next week, when all the painting has finished........
we also had a very successful visit to ikea....we purchased a new rug, lots of cushion pads, new throws... well really too many things to name.......new pics of these when they are all in situ !!
p.s. did i mention i am very exited !!!!!!!!
