Plans: blogged here
I thought to show you my work-in-progress guest bedroom. With a budget of nothing... big plans... things are moving slowly... but mighty different from the start!
Before:
A bland room with mirrored sliding built-ins (yuck). A nice large window looking out onto quite a few pretty bushes and ugly fencing with expensive blue drapes already there. We had no bed for it, so only a blow up double mattress for some months.
Before2:
Got a queen bed base from eBay for our own bedroom so ours is now in here along with another queen mattress. This was stuck like this for some time too.
Today:
Not quite what I had in mind... but again, with budget of nothing... I had to make do with things around the home. I collect calendars which attract me... got some cheap frames from Spotlight and framed up a few of my favourites from 2007. That green cupboard was my first DIY job in 2002 which I absolutely love.
Planned:
