This living room makeover post is in partnership with the official Revamp Restyle Reveal sponsors as listed below. Thank you to the lovely Tamsyn for handing over to me on the RRR3 blog-hop. Such a beautiful transformation of her attic space. Last year, I was very lucky to be invited to take part in season […]

Before and After; Vanity Unit Upcycle
Following on from last week’s bathroom reveal (here), I thought I would share one of my favourite ‘little’ projects: the vanity unit upcycle. Out of all the customisation projects I created for myself during this renovation*sigh*, this was one of the most straightforward… and most pleasing. It all started with a dream. We wanted something […]
Bathroom Makeover Reveal
Let me be the first to say it; this bathroom makeover reveal has been a long time coming. Trust me, I’m well aware of it. However, I am my own worst enemy. January has been a very slow blog month. If the blog was my partner, it would have packed its bags and left by […]
Stair and Hallway Makeover Reveal With An Epic Gallery Wall
Well, it honestly felt like this day would never come. After what has been literally months of work, I am so pleased to finally (FINALLY!!) say that the stair and hallway makeover reveal is ready to go! This project was a mammoth task from the very beginning. For those of you who have been following […]
Living Room Reveal Part 2… Finally!
First Up, Soz For The Delay This post feels like it has been a long time coming. Probably because it has. Yes, after weeks of me saying ‘next week’ the Living room reveal has arrived. I hope you think it was worth the wait! Eek! For those of you who follow me on Instagram, you […]
Living Room Reveal Part 1… What took you so long?
The Living Room Reveal Took So Long ‘Cos… To start with, it was the ceiling. After painting the bedroom ceiling dark (here), and loving it, Brian suggested doing the living room one too. I didn’t need too much convincing, since I’m a huge fan of the Abigail Ahern style of painting everything out in one […]
Ikea Billy Bookcase Built-In Hack
Planning. The finishing touches have just been added to our custom shelving unit and it’s been styled to within an inch of it’s life. Fancying seeing how you can pimp up a cheapo set of bookshelves, into a thing of style and substance? Then prepare yourself for the Billy Bookcase Built-In Bonanza! If you haven’t already […]
My DIY (did it myself) 5-arm ceiling light.
Before the big living room reveal I thought I would share a few process shots and posts of how I got to the end result. Of course, it’s also because I like a big dramatic build up to these things, but it kinda makes sense to show some elements first, like the fireplace makeover here. So, […]
Living Room Planning Part Two; Multiple Focal Points
Bravery. A definite requirement when designing a room that is slightly out-with your comfort zone. As I mentioned in my last post, I’ve been used to decorating on a slightly smaller scale, in properties that didn’t really need to be grand in any way. Number 69, is a different kind of girl though. She has the […]
Hack! Ikea Pax wardrobe and DIY West Elm bedside tables
As you all know by now, the bedroom makeover came about because I really screwed up with the first attempt. A lack of planning left me with a half-arsed room that was neither finished nor pretty. My bad. This meant that round two, had a rather restricted budget. I mean, really restricted. Having already blown a chunk […]
