Hello, above is Tim's door frame so far. He has whizzed through building a stud wall and adding a door frame, iot is ready for me to now paint then gloss, then he can put the door on! We will then have a big bathroom!!! Of course we will have to take down the inside walls and then put a new bathroom suite in eventually, but that will be a while in the future as we collect together our pennies!!

Below is our gorgeous garden looking really lush, we had a BBQ today as it was soooo hot and sunny all day. The cats are loving it!
I am now making a start on our porchway. I have taken off the old skanky hooks, filled in any holes and skimmed some areas that were not even. I then sanded today and have just started painting the ceiling and one wall. I think it will look fabulous and be such a warm, welcoming area for our guests!!

Below is the wall I haven't painted and the right hand side wall is the bit I have painted... it took me ages to go around all the pipes... one day we will box it in to a cupboard.
Above are our new hooks we have bought for coats. Aren't they sooo pretty??? We want hooks for coats and eventually get some shoe racks/a chest to put shoes in.
We went to IKEA yesterday to get a TV stand and we also bought some shelves, they will fit perfectly in the area opposite our downstairs WC. They will create lots of storage space for our boxes of books and things we haven;t unpacked yet!
We also have some really exciting news, we have invested in some carpet!!! We are so incredibly excited about it, we have been desperately saving our pennies and have finally got enough to get carpet in our lounge, hallway, stairs and landing. We need to save a few more pennies to get carpet in the bedrooms so that will be our next project in Autumn maybe!

I will put lots of photos on my blog as soon as they are fitted (hopefully Thursday!)

big hugs, gemma xx
