The Big Reveal

As promised.  A BIG reveal. A long time in the making. Start to finish the new living room took us 8 months. On a budget and doing as much of the work ourselves as we could.

So the before:

AND the After

Barely recognisable huh? Sadly I cant take the image from the same angle as before because of the new wall. And In my next post I will put up some details shots of the room. (in fact it has already changed a little from these pictures!) Plus for festive fun I will be posting images of my decorating this year as well as a tutorial on my door wreath.

 I will be filling you all in on the Where? and How much? on later posts. Lots of the bits in the room were thrifty bargains - especially the dining chairs (£1.20 each). And some were more splurge items. Like the butterfly cushion.

This amazing cushion I bought from an Etsy shop. I love the detail on the embroidery!

Fab isn't it. This was my present to myself for all the late nights sanding and painting. I love it.

 Check out the Etsy shop I got it from below.
