I’m kind of sulking, because I’m not going to be able to chop up our units to make a dressing table. The neverending saga of me not having a dressing table continues. I suppose if I ever actually got one, it wouldn’t be neverending.
Instead, we’ve decided to leave the units as they are, and replace the red stuff with white stuff. Otherwise, it’d be white on white on white, and that’s clearly too much white.
As I said before, we will still be having white drawers/cupboards/wicker baskets in the units, but it won’t be quite as clinical as we first thought.
Barry’s asked me to clarify why he’s wearing sunglasses inside on yesterday’s post. It’s not that he’s too cool for school, is a pimp, or has some strange eye disease. No! It was just incredibly sunny this Sunday – so sunny, he had to wear sunglasses inside.
I also wanted to show off that we got tickets to the Sunday of Radio 1’s Hackney weekend, and am super excited about it! If my friend Rach picks up her phone, we might even have somewhere to stay for the night…
I’ve just remembered that I promised our living room carpet to Jaime many moons ago. I’m afraid it’s not going to be much use to anybody (it’s covered in splashes of paint), and Charlie and Jaime did get their carpets redone about a year ago, so I’m hoping he’ll forgive us when we throw it away!
Chopping it up would’ve been fun. Are you working on your entire house all at once?
Not really, although it looks like it at the moment!
We started with the living room in January, which quickly spread to the kitchen, so we’re working on all of the ground floor at the same time. We’ve got a big splodge of tester paint in our bedroom, and we know what we want to do with that. We need to finish painting black up the stairs, and then do it on the top floor too, but we also want to put decking in the garden soon…
