I mentioned back on this post about how I want to decorate our lounge this year ....well, we decided there is no time like the present so .... this afternoon we have packed away all our CDs, DVDs & books into boxes....taken down photographs and got the dining area ready to become the lounge for a few weeks or however long it takes to finish the lounge. A few weeks is a bit optimistic, no doubt it will probably be a few months, we are very slow when it comes to renovating & decorating!!
We have one of those long, lounge/dining rooms. It used to be two rooms but the previous owners knocked an archway through and made it one big room. Tomorrow we are going to move the sofa and TV into the dining area and put up some sheets or something across the archway. Then the wall paper stripping can begin!! We'd love to rip out the fireplace and skirting boards too but still not finally decided if our budget will stretch to a new fireplace.
Note to self: Remember to take some before and work in progress photos!!
Hope you are having a great weekend!

Yes, it took us months rather than weeks to redecorate our dining room last year! Good luck with yours, and let us see the pics of how it goes! x
It will be worth it in the end no matter how long it takes, exciting stuff :)
We are very slow decoratprs but it is important to make a good job of it. I believe this is better than a quick repaint over a weekend. I look forward to hearing how it goes and what the final outocme is.
