Walls are on the way!!

The toilet has been wallpapered and when I saw it wet I was disappointed in the colour (Friday) but today mum and I walked through the house and it was much better. I was disappointed initially that the paper I had chosen was not available until end of November. Now that the second choice is up it looks fine. Not as textured as I had hoped and a more even colour but will be easy to make my furniture to fit.
This is the workroom with the wallpaper on and the hole cut in the wall for the ironing centre. The wardrobes have all been papered and the two bedrooms will have fitted wardrobe, but not the workroom. The wall you can see will also have vertiface board, which can be used for pinning things on.
The wardrobe and wall of the guest bedroom so you can see the room is light and airy for guests. You can book in at any time.

Painting Underway

The painting is underway so the inside is getting closer to being finished. I finally chose the colour for the doors and although I wanted a lighter shade it was not available. Still think that these look fine.

Photo of the large storage space in the garage. you can see from the previous blog that the garage door is on and it is the same colour as the roof. I think that the house looks quite stylish and hopefully will not date.

Kitchen is In!!!!

The kitchen is in and looks fabulous. I am really pleased with it and it certainly is larger than expected.

The bookshelf on the lounge side looks really neat and will be a great asset for keeping the place looking tidy. I will also have a space for the writing desk so that is something I had not thought of before.

The space is certainly looking like a house now and I can visualise the furniture in it so that is great. This week I am hoping that the painting and wall-papering will be done.

Getting there

The weather is finally getting better and the drains are not pouring. Mark informed me today that there are 4200 plus bricks on the house and that this has been the longest job, but the paper also mentioned that July has been the wettest month (208% of rainfall and only 66% of sunshine hours) since 1938.

Hoping that he will have the bricks finished by the end of the week, you can see him in his blue tent that he made to try and get the job done.

As you can see the old laundry has started to have its makeover. The colour is not too dark but looks quite good and it will be all over the room including the doors. Here is hoping that I can get the new lino in soon as well for that room.
