My Home Decorating Project

These are some pictures of our new house as it was when we first viewed it The Garden "weeds and rubbish galore!" The Side Garden "complete with mature pampas grass" The Hallway "drab 80's revival" The Lounge "complete with the mysterious black hole previously a fireplace!" Cloakroom "No sink, no shower but it did have a loo!" The Stairs "safety first is key with the open plan design!" Bedroom 3 "note the lovely carpet designs made by the previous owners dog!" Bedroom 4 "don't we all just love scoobydoo!"

We bought our house in November 2008 and as a repossession, unluckily for us, it was in an awful mess.  It had been stripped of any saleable item including the heating boiler, fireplace, staircase spindles and handrail.  Any remaining carpets were pee stained from dogs and the decor was absolutetly awful! However, even in it's disgraced state we still fell in love with our new house and were excited as well as daunted by the prospect of the time, money and effort required to make this house our home.
