Looks good.

I've been trying to get a nice floor standing lamp similar to the ones you've got. Would you mind sharing where you found those?

Been enjoying this thread. Always helpful to see ideas.

Would you mind sharing what the blinds are?

Op

What a transformation - you and your Mrs are highly skilled hard working individuals.

Very well played.

Amazing, what a transformation. Seems easy looking at the pictures but that's a significant amount of work!!

We really struggling with an alternitive kitchen design ours is just square and fairly small with no option to knock out any walls.

Went for a new better looking radiator for our bedroom, also hoping it'll do a better job of heating than the old one as I reckon this room can get cold in the winter




But of course iphone doing more f**king flipping of photos.

Looking good! I'm always amazed by how bleak bathrooms look once all the fittings and tiles are out! I'm sure that'll soon be remedied though!

Haha yeah tell me about it, really miserable!!

Last night I decided to have a look through the whole thread for the first time, memories came flooding back about how rough it looked at times. And how cold it was over Christmas/early 2021!!!

Work on main bedroom has been moving ahead with custom wardrobe and drawer unit. Will probably paint it white, but pondering other colours too





En-suite bathroom and downstairs loo have been stripped and plastered. Hopefully next few days will see good progress getting them fitted out, all the hardware is here.

Got a carpet company booked to come round on Monday, would be amazing if they could fit us in before Christmas to do the bedrooms. If that could happen we’re basically finished! Apart from the “main” bathroom, we’re not touching that until Jan.
