Finally we had a day of DIY. Oh but the pain. My thumbs hurt, my back is aching, my wrists feel funny... I am going to sleep extremely well tonight. BUT we did get some stuff done. I built a non-children sized chest of drawers (OMG no more folding underwear to make it fit!) and Steph painted a couple of the walls in the "blue room". Then we moved all of the clothing-related things (cupboards, clothes, shoes, etc) into the bedroom. The living room now looks about 10 times bigger, hurrah! Still loads to sort out though... a task for later on (or maybe tomorrow)(or maybe next week). Pics below.
We have bought a flat. It needs a lot of work. This blog will track our progress as we scrape off wallpaper, paint walls, replace bits, buy furniture and generally create somewhere lovely to live out of not very much.
We have named this blog Beanbaps after our beloved Sarah Beenie of Property Ladder. Oh Beanbaps, we wish you were here with us. Should we redo the kitchen? Should we replaster the walls? No one ever listens to you on your show, but we would do everything you said! Come to us, Beenie!
