Master + ensuite...

The master + ensuite are almost finished...

The paint work has been completed apart from the last coat of floor paint - this will be the last thing the decorators do throughout the hole house.



Both of the fires need to be sealed with 3 or 4 coats of sealant - this will make the colour of them even darker...






Still waiting on the arrival of the glass shower screen - this now should be with us on Tue.



I've had the inside of the built in wardrobes painted with Pitch Black farrow and ball floor paint - this gives a good indication of what the floor will look like when completed.

Even more paint....

All the walls and the ceiling within the hall and landing have now been sprayed with All White farrow and ball paint - the skirting board still needs seeing to...

+ the staircase needs to be fished off with pitch black floor paint




All this MUCK and dust is making me VERY twitchy!!! My OCD is on overdrive...

BUT - at least...you can start to see what the end result will look like when all the painting is finished!

Reception 1 + 2...

After 1 and a 1/2 weeks away from work and the house due to illness - this is what i've come back to....

Some paint on the walls and ceilings!


Reception 1 - 

Pitch Black farrow and ball on the ceiling...edges need to be finished off.

All White farrow and ball on the walls and wood work...1st coat needs to be finished.


When completed - the fire surround will be reinstated and the floor will have it's final lick of Great White farrow and ball floor paint.


Window frames will remain as is.



Reception 2 -

All White farrow and ball on the ceiling.

Pitch Black farrow and ball on the walls + all woodwork apart form the french doors which will remain as is.




When completed - the floor will have it's last coat of Great White farrow and ball floor paint + the slate fire surround and hearth will have 3 or 4 coats of sealant which will make the colour of it even darker.
