Managed to pick up a farmhouse table and chairs, console table and mirror from the British Heart Foundation Furniture store the other day. Cant wait to get started on them – im thinking off white for the table and chairs (with the top sanded and waxed), Eau de Nil for the console table and white gloss for the mirror.
As you can see the hallway is part stripped – I need to get the rest of the backing paper off before the plastering can be done then im papering it and painting it cream. The carpet will be changed from brown to a cream with bluey/green and brown stripe that ive fallen in love with and the console table will sit further along than it is now – just behind the front door where theres more space in the hallway. SO EXCITED!!
Hubby started building the shelving and built in cupboards and tv unit etc in the sitting room today so fingers crossed they should be done soon (if i keep on his back!) Then its trying to sweet talk him into getting wooden floors and new sofa! lol (when i say new you know i mean second hand though – it wouldnt feel right if it wasnt a bargain!) LOL
