[img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Fridge__Freezer.jpg[/img] We'd ordered our corner sofa, then once moved in realised it wasn't going to fit with the radiator behind so needed to move the radiator. This involved blocking up the bottom section of the window, which I wasn't keen on anyways. [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Window_1.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Window_2.jpg[/img] Now this fits nice and snug! Corsa on the canvas was put there to annoy the other half! [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Corner_Sofa.jpg[/img] Boarding the bottom of the window up involved some DIY blind trimming, got GF's grandma to sew them all up after I cut and folded... [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/DIY_Blinds.jpg[/img] The previous owners had the most random shower curtain, which was bolted through the ceiling, that got ripped out straight away and a shower screen fitted: [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Shower_Screen.jpg[/img] So that was pretty much it until after Christmas and New Year so we didnt make the place a mess over the hols. After New Year first job was to get the living room sorted, every room has artex ceilings, so over time we'll get round them all one by one... Bonding agent applied: [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Bonded_Ceiling.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Plastering.JPG[/img] [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Skimmed_LR.jpg[/img] Ran surround sound cables to the rear of the room behind the sofa: [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/SS_Cabling.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Rear_SS.jpg[/img] Next up was to get the old fashioned fire place and surround out: [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Old_Fire_3.jpg[/img] Which went even more old fashioned to this: [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Old_Fire_1.jpg[/img] Once removed, had to make the opening large enough to take the new hole in wall fire: [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Chimney_1.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Chimney_3.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Chimney_4.jpg[/img] This had to stay like this for ages, as the company we bought the fire from decided to fook us about for a month and its only arrived this week: [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/New_Fire.jpg[/img] Need to get the plumber round and then can build the false wall for TV and get chimney skimmed. So while waiting on the fire, we made a start with the bedroom: Wasn't keen on airing cupboard, takes up valuable space so one day I did a bit more demolishing: [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Airing_Cupboard.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/Airing_Out_2.jpg[/img] Skimmed the ceiling again to get rid of the artex, two walls looked like they had had holes knocked in then filled with the help of Stevie Wonder, so skimmed those also... [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/br_plaster_1.jpg[/img] Also before skimming the ceiling, decided to run the first fix electrics and coax for a TV on the wall. [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/9567/br_plaster_2.jpg[/img] More progress as and when it happens, hopefully have the fire fitted next week and can get on with decorating. :thumbs: [/quote]
