Our lounge!!!!

Okay, so the people before us had such horrendous taste and painted (badly) in such garish colours and we have spent months sorting it all out, not that we have made it to the pink dining room which is the worst one of all... and now Tim and I decided we wanted a feature wall in our lounge and choose 'African Mosaic 4'. I think it looks fab and once we have some fab big paintings/wall hangings it will look even better! Do you think it is ok or too loud? We figured if we hate it after a while we can always paint over it (seeing we actually own this house!!!)

We have also started putting our lights up and finally can see in the evenings in the lounge, they are really pretty don't you think? we have another pair to go on the orange wall! I can't wait now to do all the finishing touches like glossing, skirting boards and curtains, then dress the room with mirrors and art work. It will be such a fab room, it really will!



So after my exciting weekend of DIY, sorting men's wedding outfits and visiting Laura's beautiful baby boy, we had more exciting news yesterday! My friend Kathryn has got engaged to her lovely boyfriend Jason. They are such a perfect couple! They are planning a winter wedding this year!!!! So so so so so exciting!!!!!!!!!! I am so happy for them both.

Well best scoot, we are dropping a house key round at Tim's grandparents because Jean has said she will feed Oscar and Einstien on Sunday as Tim and I are in warwick. We are going for a last boogie ever in the union as they are pulling it down, all tim's house mates are going to be there and Little Anna and Craig can now come too so YEY!!!! Top banana songs here we come!!!!!

bye xxxx

Love the colour. Very Mexican! It's the same as our bedroom back there. I would do the same in a lounge. I don't think you'll get tired of it - nice and warm in the winter and summery later on in the year. Grat1 Keep the pictures coming. See you Saturday!!!! Flying home tonight. I'm so excited to see everyone. xxxxx
