A few months ago I brought my first house, and since then a lot of my evenings and weekends have been taken up with painting, sewing, sofa buying, gardening and scaffolding….yes I said scaffolding!!

My lovely little house has a velux window – that can’t be reached from anywhere - lounge landing or bedroom. So in order to clean, varnish and replace the blind (which didn’t appear to have been done ever since the place was built over 20 years ago) we had to get the scaffolding in!
The scaffolding was rather a lot larger than I’d imagined and so most of the lounge had to be emptied into the bedroom and garden.

Thankfully it only took 1 ½ days to get everything done, so the disarray of my house wasn’t for long. I’m happy to say that it won’t have to be done again for another few years…unless I change my colour scheme….

Now all that's left to do is the garden fence, carpeting, a new kitchen, wallpapering......
