Recently moved into our new house and have been slowly progressing room by room as it was not exactly to our taste.

Starting with the bedroom and will be hopefully putting up similar threads for the rest of the house.

Here goes......

The day after we moved in



Horrible up and over wardrobes that covered a lot of the window



One more before the strip out



Room stripped



Next up....relocate TV socket, recessed shower power cable and board and skim ceiling and plaster walls.

Old socket and aerial



New socket and aerial


Chase out for electrical cable & conduit


Filled conduit & scored ready for plastering



Ceiling set out and boarded



Skimmed



Wash coat

Shopping to get furniture & accessories



Painting finished, TV trial fit, Light, mirror, Floor & Skirting down, Shelves and Wall Art


Finished product

Hope that gives some inspiration.

Other bigger and better projects to follow.

A perfect example of why adding pics to the forum as an attachment, as opposed to using remote hosting makes sense.
The above post now becomes meaningless because the OP has either deleted or moved the images on the hosting site. Mod 2
I have removed the dead links to photobucket.

Great transformation, loving the colour/ flooring

Nice work, its so helpful for those doing up their own houses to view the showcase section,thanks for taking the time to post.

Looks loads better and thanks for taking the time to post.

Nice one Joker

Good to see a nice little start to finish project mate Looks well..

Well done

Much nicer.
Flooring looks very nice
I should have taken some photos of this place.....when we moved in technotronic carpets, acid green walls in the living room (I had to wear sunglasses to look at it....made me queasy),Wallpaper with trippy patterns in 20 different shades in the bedroom and bright pink foam wallpaper in the bathroom....
Next place I will try and remember....likely will be a beige extravaganza given its flavour of the decade....yuck

Thank you for your kind comments

photo's have disappeared for me, photobucket strikes again

Indeed.

I have no idea why these are now missing?? Will upload again shortly!

How do I edit my original post to upload again?

post them to a new reply following this : how-to-post-pictures-t254.html

i'm sure a mod wouldn't mind altering your original post once attached
