BEFORE:
and I'm betting it won't last very long. The hallway drives me insane. That ledge is the perfect place for storing stuff, so it accumulates a lot of crap, A LOT. And then the crap gets knocked off the ledge to the stair case below. The landing at the bottom of the stairs also accumulates stuff.
There isn't a laundry room, we have a stacked washer and dryer in a closet. We have gotten into the habit of leaving the clean laundry on the ledge until we need it, rather than folding it up and putting it away. The laundry is now all folded and in the linen cupboard. The pictures that were at the bottom of the stairs are now hanging on the wall.
AFTER:
I don't like the wall colour of either the hall or the ensuite. The hall is still builders beige, because the logistics of painting it are a nightmare, especially that high end wall. So builders beige it remains.
We painted the ensuite the pale green when we moved in 5 years ago. I liked it then, I still like the colour now, I'm just bored with it. Hubby will roll his eyes when he hears that.
I can't decide what colour I want, so it's going to stay the same for a bit longer. I'd really like to use these Koi tiles from Portland Cement. But I'm not particularly keen on keeping the tile and grout clean. Now if I could find something similar in a wallpaper that might work. Of course I'd then have to find some new lino for the floor as well.
Next up? The second bathroom. Wait until hubby hears what I have planned for that!
