I got back from a work trip in Ravenna on Friday night utterly exhausted, to a weekend of DIY lined up.
The first job was going to B&Q to purchase the dado rails necessary to finish off our dining room walls - we've painted them grey 3/4 of the way up, then white above the rail as the impression I get from my Ideal Homes magazine is that this makes rooms appear bigger and taller.
Gerberas are an endangered species |
The trick is remembering which piece of rail is for where once they've all been cut to specific sizes.
Then we finally fixed our apple crates onto the living room wall to provide the room with knick-knack storage. We were inspired by some our friends had in their flat from The Apple Crate Company, although we bought ours on the cheap from Achica.
We got our fab industrial spot light from Next for a bargain £75, and they have a tripod version for £90. I've seen so many awesome industrial or cinema style lights I love for hundreds of pounds so this seemed like a reasonably priced alternate and I absolutely love it!
