Looking good.
How about a steampunk bathroom, with a victorian idea of a modern bathroom with lots of brass and rivets and cog wheels.

I like this idea, where did you get those prints from? Especially like the right one.
My bedroom wall is that exact same colour and I have some crappy vegas picture up I found in the garage, looks OK but could be better!
Your wall looks like it needs another coat in places, like mine! Might be the flash tho. Either way, that red is ballache to paint!

Good work! 70's bathroom? That's brave ;D My 'rents still have the original avocado suite in their bathroom from 1976. Hideous, but kinda cool. (in fact I don't think anything has really been changed since the 70's. SPAM FROM, carpets, banisters etc, all OEM fitment lol  ) |

Cars only on the general board please. Retro influenced decorating and RRer's motorbikes go in other mods. Sorry. |

Did your lot buy an FSO brand new in the '80s, instantly making you the laughing stock of the whole school? Mine did |

To get a standard A40 this low, you'd have to dig a hole to put it in |
