I am so close to showing you my living area, but not just yet. It's about a week away from being presentable! The beautiful floors are in and the skirtings are on. The last Tri-fold door arrived and has been fitted. The cornice is in the entrance hall and the walls have been plastered to remove the stipples. The TV lounge doors now have translucent glass and it's all melting together.
This weekend we will tackle the wall priming and painting then it's hanging curtain rails, curtains and pictures. It is going to be lovely just in time for a cosy winter. I have my beady eye on a free standing fireplace but need to stretch the spreadsheet to fit it on the budget. That will really complete the picture.
Decorating the entrance hall and hanging all our art is going to be the really fun part. We still need to find the perfect light fitting to dazzle our guests on arrival. There are finishing touches to be added everywhere.
I'm still tripping over builders but at least they are fun to have around. We are a lethal team: one Aussie, one Brit and a South African. The boys reluctantly went back to school today which frees up a bit of time so the project can now continue.
Just wait, I am going to show it to you soon.
