I am now able to completely redecorate my lounge - so thought i would do some before and after pics.

As you can see - the carpet is not salvageable, so that will be replaced after the painting is done - off to focus later to look at colours.  Going to get the glossing done later.

After a major scrubbing the bed settee is ok, it actually comes out into a double bed, and I am going to get one of those thin folding mattresses to go on it, making it more comfortable.

Not sure of the colour scheme yet, but will post the pics as we go - hope you might find them interesting!

I do, it`s quite theraputic you know.    Wink Probably decorate every year, different rooms each year,

I do too - but prefer painting to papering.

I'm not crazy about painting and I don't like wallpaper but I'm a dab hand at putting furniture together.

Bit of an update - glossing and ceiling done, first coat on the walls - gives you an idea of the end colour.
