A Beautiful Dressing Table

I need a fabulous dressing area. At the minute my makeup, jewellery and hair things are all in various parts of the house, from the living room through to the bathroom and then even more in the bedroom. I really need a spot where I can keep everything together.

So I've been dreaming......





.....and hubby said he might treat me. Hehe!





I did find one that I love. I'll post the pics tomorrow. I think it deserves a post all of its own.

Blackboard Wall

Theres this wall.

This wall is in the middle of the apartment. It creates a kind of separation between the kitchen and the rest of the living area. One of the ideas we were thinking of for this wall was a blackboard wall. I have yet to find a place that sells blackboard paint though.

The Apartment

We live here. In this fabulous palace of a building. Its not much to look at but in fairness to it, the balconys have all been replaced since the Google Mobile was here.



We have a one bed apartment and the floor plan looks a little bit like this (check out my great skills with paint!)



This was on our first night here. We've been picking up bits of furniture and things as we go along.



You may be wondering why I am posting this. Well, over the next few months we hope to do some DIY jobs around the place to make it less clinical and more homely. I'm going to post pictures of any interesting things we do as we get them done or any ideas we come up with. Wish me luck....
