Evening all
I've not been around much, trying to get some work done in the house amongst this n that
but thought I'd show you one of the rooms we've done
Bored of the beige!! Busuit brown soft carpet, oak skirting boards, lovely solid oak furniture, magnolia walls etc etc - we had a sell up of furniture on ebay, with the proceeds I got to work
We had a through lounge that used to be a seperate dining room and living room, but we wanted some of it back
Started work with a mid height frame - which includes some book cases now in the living room for the DVD;s etc
Built it up high enough for a worktop/counter to, then a backsplash and tiled it..
Tiled the underneath too

Can you tell whats coming yet!!!
Quick sample of paint for the walls and then got stuck into tiling the floor!!
Floor tiles, walls painted and skirting boards from oak to black
Surely your getting the idea now!!
looking from the conservatory back in
getting there
I've now started on putting up the metal signs and some Diner style memorabilia that we've been collecting
Some of you know we love this style, After doing route 66 on our honey moon Wendy fell in love with the diners and wanted her own, so here is the start of that..
We still need to get loads more tin signs and numberplates etc
Saving up for a jukebox next and a red retro styled fridge freezer is on order....
Some people think we're crazy, but we love it!!!
what you think??
