Bee happy ..... finish off

You can probably remember my little assistant couldn't decide which room to use this C & R wallpaper in, well now she has decided.

It was chosen for a feature wall in the living room.

You can probably see the wallpapering was done during an evening as it is dark outside.

Morning, and checking out the finished wall in daylight.

The TV cupboard has been eventually lifted out for the next job.

I even wallpapered in the tiny shelves in the fireplace, this was tricky but well worth it me thinks.

Painting the floor next!

First coat complete.

The floor had 3 coats of paint altogether.

The next job was ironing all the washed and dried curtains, blackout linings and voile.  It was a massive job putting the curtains back up, took nearly all day after ironing each section.

My lovely assistant checking out my work :)

Sorry I haven't been checking out every one's sweet blogs but I have been busy, will be able to catch up soon.

Have a delicious day!



Bee happy ..... choose wallpapers

I went to Laura Ashley and picked up some wall paper samples, most of the have flowers or birds on them but after looking at different styles in my house magazines I still think I prefer white/grey plain walls with white painted floorboards.


I have decided I may use 2 of the wallpapers.

This is probably going to be in the downstairs cloaks.
It will add a little bit of luxury to a small room.

This may go in the hallway on one wall as a
feature.  Maybe add a beige carpet runner
with a black edge.

This was a consideration for my craft room.



I like this but not sure where for.


Decisions, decisions, this will take some thinking about .....

All the walls in every room have now been stripped of their old, dated papers.  I used a steam stripper, it was so easy and a lot quicker than a water spray :)
