We've been quite distracted with our house warming party and a whole host of DIY home improvement projects at the moment! The party was last weekend, and was a 60s themed event to show off the house in all its 60s splendor.
We've been very busy working on the house as well, in the New Year we have already just about finished another room! The study did have some amazing wallpaper, but unfortunately it had to go. Heres the room before we got going:
Here is Char on New Years Day stripping the wallpaper:
Then a rewiring job on the power socket, and new phone, data and coaxial sockets:
Then filling hundreds of small holes all over the walls - very strange! And then new coving and a new paintjob - still drying on the walls as I write:
So that only leaves - new lighting, new skirting, new door, new radiator, paint the window, new carpet. Easy peasy!

Easy peasy - I love that attitude Dave :). I'm very impressed with all the work done.
Can't wait to see what you two do with it!
Love the 60s theme housewarming party idea!
so you guys spend 80% of your time at Bunnings now?
Well... about 30% Wickes (Hardware store) 30% B&Q (UK Bunnings) and 20% IKEA (my favourite bit!). House re-doing is all consuming.
