My lovely friend Bunny asked to see my furniture make over
but unfortunately I had started already so this photo
shows the underneath grey colour.
The furniture was originally dark wood and
it got the dark grey coat.
Then you can see around the drawers,
the lovely light grey paint we put on next.
I then cut some wallpaper which is a lovely creamy colour
will silver paint like swirls going through it.
The unit looks small in this photo but it is pretty large
when you are putting 3 coats of paint, then wallpaper,
then handles and finally a coat of clear varnish.
It makes the hallway much brighter and roomier!
I do have a smaller version of this sitting opposite this one,
decorated in the exact same way.
I wanted to give you a close up look at the wallpaper
but the lighting is making it look very yellow.
You can see the swirls of grey going through it though
and we are really pleased with the finished outcome.
Down the corridor there is a hot press door which is an odd
size and we have been unable to replace it.
It was a horrible brown, flat door.
So we decided to cover it in some bookcase wallpaper!
It really brightened up the corridor and the result is just perfect!
Light is not great but I hope you get the feel.
Another view. Don't look at my old mats.
I do have a new one but have to hoover and scrub the floors
after the decorating!
Thanks for dropping by!
