Before & After - The Big New Project - Part 2

Welcome back for some more before and after renovation photos of The Big New Project. Are you sitting comfortably? Then we shall begin.

The Dining Room

Another area that has completely transformed was the former sitting room which is now a dining space. The pendant lights look better than we expected and the shabby chic furniture really suits the paint colours and wooden floorboards.

Second Bedroom

This room originally had a huge built in wardrobe which was chewing up a fair bit of space, so we took it out, removed the wallpaper and gave everything a freshen up. 

Only annoying thing is that there is a bit of colour variation between the 2 cans of paint we used.

Backgarden
The established plants were already there so we just had to replace a beam and paint the pergola. We cut back the vine and planted some lavender and added the outdoor setting.

Bedroom 3

This was the first room complete in our renovation and was used as a dining room and involved yet more wallpaper stripping and then a nice lick of new paint and sanded floorboards. This is going to be a twin room but for now we have left it as another small lounge.
