It’s coming along.
Today, our neighbour popped in and put the scrim on, and will be back Saturday morning to plaster the wall. Mo filled all the holes.
This evening the man who did Sindie’s Artex came and quoted £50 to do it for us. It would cost us almost as much to buy the stuff and then have to struggle to do it ourselves, and probably make a mess of it, so we decided to go with him. He is coming Saturday week to do it.
In the meantime, we can plan and buy the wood for the new surround, and cut it all to size ready. That way we can put it up as soon as the wall is finished :O)
Oh how nice it is to be free to get excited, now we have Sindie’s positive news :O)
Stumble it!

Cor, fifty quid? That’s a bargain. :0) It’ll all be done bar the carpet in time for Christmas.

How exciting it all is. It’s good when you have a few other people’s ideas and input. It somehow makes it lots of fun and not scary. I can imagine all the laughter that’s going on in your house at the moment. What sort of fire will you end up with?

I think £50.00 is well worth it! You will be nice and straight for Christmas, and I am sure it won’t be long before the new carpet is down!!

We plant to get a large rug and fit it around the area (as you would a fitted carpet). It will do until we can get a new carpet :O)

It’s looking good, and will be such achange from the old one. You got a good price at £50 post photos of the work as it goes on, Sindie has such good ideas. I am looking forward to seeing it finished.
