Home Improvements. Photo Entry.

The house is lovely and quiet. All I can hear is the slight buzz of the pc and the washing machine doing it's work.The boys are on thier naps and I am just getting a quick entry in before I get back to the rest of the old housework.

Our living room has undergone a bit of a transformation in recent weeks. I will be posting the newest  pictures very soon but I can manage a couple of before and after.

We've just got 2 new sofas, some new cushions, a new computer table for when we recieve our wireless dongle and we can rearrange the room a tad more. The little boys have little armchairs of their own and our bookshelves have been completed by the addition of doors to make it look tidier and complete. We are so close to finishing this room now.

This is how our living room looked when we moved in last May.

And here it is now.The left hand side of that wall is no longer plain and a big recess. The bookshelves fill it. With the doors, it looks more of a unit. We will continue these the other side of the wall in the other recess once we have sorted out the re-homing of the pc. You can just about make out the tv on the wall on the far right of the picture. The computer is currently where it is in the first pic but will be moving to the opposite corner of the room as soon as.

The kitchen was originally cream.

We painted it pink but didn't like it. So a couple of months ago we painted it blue and lemon. Here's the view of the dining area of the kitchen as it is now.

The whole wall shown in the upper picture is blue, so its only the wall on the right that is yellow but we liked the contrast.

Finally, we have almost completed the bedroom. We still need a second coat of paint on the walls but we purchased some new bedding that fits my style perfectly. Oh and to top it off, I put my wedding flowers in the picture.

However, despite having 3 1/2 rooms to how we want them. (Hubby still isn't 100% happy with the bathroom but I think it's fine) having a house is always a work in progress.

The youngest two still need thier bedroom decorated and we are looking for a high sleeper for Matthew so he has more storage and more room for himself. We will get there with upstairs at some point but I am very happy with the main areas of the house and even the seeds we planted out the front of the house appear to be thriving and will hopefully give us a lovely white flower bed out the front by the time full summer is here.
