i'm a dreamer and love to think of ways to change up the house without spending a fortune. last weekend my super handy parents, hubby and i decided to redecorate the 'junk/dining room'.
our house is a beautiful old house with high pressed tin ceilings, wood paneling walls and plenty of charm but it has one ugly old aircon that isn't used so before changes happened it was kind of essential to ditch the air con.
so in a weekend solution: find a
pretty piece of leadlight cheap and knock out the aircon. build a frame
around it, mount it and smile at a beautiful blank canvas room.
it
took about a day to complete but boy is it beautiful and turning our
junk room into a nice sunny winter room where i just want to curl up
with a good book and cup of tea and read all day.
before:
i'll show some final transformation pictures of how our 'junk room' has been transformed into a dining room/spare room/ reading nook but it's still not quite finished. above is a small peak but i've still got so many ideas to put into place before it's complete.ah, the joys of pinterest and ideas galore on the net :)
hope your having a good week! x
