House, week 16.

And loads of things happening now! The kitchen has been first fixed for gas, water and electrics, the ceiling and half the walls have been boarded over and the decorators have their eye  moving in there. Meanwhile they've stripped and lined the hall, stairs, landing and dining room. Skirting boards have been primed and the utility room is nearly decorated. The house stinks of paint but its better than nicotine!

We are well chuffed with the entrance hall - it seems twice the size and is beautifully bright now. Off shopping at the weekend for light fittings, again. The brand new halogen fittings in the utility room have blown already so we are giving up and replacing them with pendants, plus need lampshades for the hall and landing. We did find a stunning cluster light for the dining room but can't bring ourselves to spend £160 on just one room so back to the drawing board there. The kids know the layout of our local b&q very well now!
