Begin the beginning
Hopefully, once I’m on a roll with this blogging lark, it will become apparent exactly what we have accomplished since moving in to our new home. It was previously owned by a couple in their early sixties, who have two grown up sons that have now moved away. It was very well presented just not well preserved. We bought the house just as the ‘credit crunch’ hit and we were lucky to sell ours at such a good price so we were able to put an offer in on this. Anyway we have now been here just over one and a half years and we are loving every minute.
We have started the small bedroom. We have dedicated the smallest of 4 bedrooms into use as a dressing room. As I’ve mentioned before we really like the white look so we stripped all the wallpaper from the walls and ceiling and had the room completely re-plastered. I just love fresh white paint over plaster walls…divine. After much deliberating over what to do with the floor we decided to go ahead and paint it white. Well it’s come up really well…much better than I could have ever imagined and so easy and fairly cheap to do. You can see the, in progress, results below.
