We have been decorating and moving rooms round and it has been a learning curve for us all.
- I am not good when things are out of place
- I have not managed to lose my control freak tendencies
- Once a Facilities Manager, always a Facilities Manager (I adore space planning)
- Some paint smells worse than others
- I have too much stuff
- We all have too much stuff
- The Norovirus wipes you out big style
- Everything takes 3 times longer when you have children trying to help
- Next time, find someone to look after the children
Oh and in case you are wondering, I pinched this idea of the far more interesting Victoria Wallop!
When we redecorated the flat it was chaos for weeks. Still have a pile of stuff to be sorted. TOO much stuff.
Just think it will be all worth it once it is done and you can sit back and admire your achievements. yes decorating without kids is a lot easier
We have been trying to decorate for the last year just trying to convince the kids of the change etc
My response to everything is to put it in the recycling (then find I need it two days later….) It will look fab when its done!
I have been de-cluttering as my house has become a store room for junk. It’s unbearable. Can’t wait to see the pics of the end result – when you’re done fancy coming to redecorate mine? 😉 xx
