At Last ..... we have curtains!

We moved into our new home 6 months ago. It is an old manor house with a lot of large windows. With the ceilings being much higher than normal, we had to get the curtains aqnd blinds custom made. The delay of fabric into the country meant that we had to wait quite a while before we could stop feeling like goldfish in a glass bowl! But I think it was worth the wait.

Boys room.

I would have done a post earlier on the kids rooms, but I was not happy with them...... so I didn't!
Today the kids and I spent most of Sunday sorting their room out!
BEFORE.............................

AFTER...................................
The weird black chairs are their babies! You plug your PSP into them, and you can rock while you listen to the surround sound of the game!
They are extremely happy!

Formal Lounge

This is definately my favourite room. Probably because of the rich burgandy/red colour and the fireplace which we use everynight in winter.

Family Bathroom


The family bathroom in this house is size challenged ! And it does not have a bath! We could have extended the room and fitted one in, but we made a decision at the beginning of this house project that we were not going to increase the square meterage!
It has a shower behind the door on the left.

Learning Room.

We are using the fourth bedroom as the learning room! Here it is before.............





and here it is after .................... looking very full and busy!

A useful nook........

I hate to admit it......... but here goes...... My littlest one still boards in our room! There, I said it!
This nook has come in very handy, but I'm sure prospective buyers could use it as a computor or sewing area.
