At long last we've completed the little hallway/utility...hard to believe it's taken so long, but you know how it is - what starts off as a little painting job suddenly develops into a major task.
We decided that some panelling would add a bit of interest to the plain walls, so tiles had to be chipped off first. Then pipes needed to be boxed in, followed by a bit of plastering (done by number 1 son), replacement sockets and switches, changing the plumbing to the washing machine...on and on it went.
So it was a while before I could paint the panelling in a soft cream and the walls in a pale cooking apple green (it looks blue on the photo for some reason). I've had the little shelf for ages and couldn't wait to get it fixed on the wall...likewise the little flower plaque I found in a charity shop a few weeks ago...quite chuffed now though, but it doesn't half make everywhere else look scruffy!
