The Spare Room

This teeny little room, will one day become my laundry (I think). Besides the bathroom, its the only room in the house that has a cement floor, hence, this room didn't get polished floor boards.



When the guy was tearing up the rest of the carpet in the house, I had him take up the old carpet in this room too, so what I thought would be a quick lick of paint, new curtain & blind, and a bit of new carpet, ended up taking me 3 weekends!!



Once again, Dad was fantastic, and ended up laying the carpet for me - I don't know what made me think I would be able to do it on my own!!



The walls were kind of aqua-ish, so I had to do an undercoat/primer before I put my colour on - I used 'Dulux - Hog Bristle'. A really versatile colour I think.



Here are the before & after pics ......
