Home DIY - Decorating - 2 rooms now done!

Paint Brushes

I’ve now completely decorated the bedroom and study area in my flat, so I no longer have pink or purple walls. It’s taken me a long time to decorate that room, but I’ve finally done it. It’s surprising how long it takes to decorate a room, since it took me 5 days working all day. Admittedly, I did absolutely everything that was needed, including patching up the holes, painting the woodwork (which includes 3 doors), painting the ceiling twice, painting the new coving 3 times, and painting the walls twice. This is in addition to varnishing new and existing shelves!

All I have left is a pair of shelves to varnish, and I need to fit a new blind in the study. I’ve fitted everything else now. It looks really nice now that I’ve finished, but it was a painful journey. I hate decorating! But now I’ve got to start on the other rooms, as I plan to get the whole flat done by Christmas. The rest of the flat will not be any easier than the bedroom, except that I have no shelves to varnish. I’ll have to do it in my diminishing spare time too, so that’s why I’ve given myself about 3.5 months to do it!
