The decoration continues

So, as you can imagine, painting walls white when they've been a darker colour takes a bit of time... And you need to find something to occupy yourself with whilst you're waiting on the different layers to dry. So time to start painting the MDF shelves for the book shelves...

Multi-functioning stool
I was also getting fed up of everyone being able to see into the living room at night when I was painting. Not that a huge number of people pass my window, but their eyes would automatically be drawn to the light... So out came the black bags and the sellotape!


And eventually, four coats later... It's beginning to look like a living room! Just add pictures... Note the tele is out!

I think the dij has found it's new home, propped up against the fire place.
I just need to wait until tomorrow before I can start painting the rest of the walls. The test pots just don't stretch far enough...

The other half of the living room to be.

The master bedroom to be, currently being used as the sewing room.


Amongst other things, whilst I was waiting on the paint to dry, I thought I'd better do a bit of organising in the utility room as it was a bit of a bùrach and I hadn't yet put the washing machine or tumble dryer in. There was a problem though, where to put my shoe rack for the many shoes that I own? Ideally under the counter, but it was just a smigen too tall... So out comes the saw to lop the ends off the legs. Now it fits no problem, sorted!

Will need to shift the shed felt and concrete out of the way before I install the white goods...
