These incredible coloured floorboards were hiding underneath the floral abomination that was masking as carpeting in my bedroom.
Lighting, Storage, Mirror, Bed Head sorted. Picking ‘em all up in the morning.
Goodbye 1974.

 


I’m trying to motivate my folks to renovate their house, so I figured what better way to convince them than to do a reno on the bedroom I’ve perched in since I moved back in with the olds. All my belongings are now boxed up, and my room stripped of everything but the mattress and PC. There’s a strange acoustic to the room that wasn’t here before. My awesome, amazing friend L is trading me his mad painting skills for a super delicious lunch I’m going to prepare in return. He’s so good to me! Truly! Steak for Paint. It’s a deal I can dig!
Today, I’m steaming the rest of the wallpaper off and filling and sanding. All that boring crap that comes before the good stuff. I’m a day or two behind schedule because the weather would have turned the bedroom into a steam room if I’d persevered in the heat.  Thank god for 24 degrees and a brief reprieve from the exhausting sun. Wish me luck!
