I actually like that kinda stuff. I think that will be a nice space once its done, I can already see it. Ive repainted little stuff of like vintage style and give them new life. Lil wall mirrors, picture frames etc. nothing too major. Im wanting to do an old dresser, vamp it up- but well see how that goes. |

I exposed the brick on the fire place and cleaned and treated it. Sanded and waxed the floors . Had bespoke suspended lighting made etc

I then got a local artist to paint items of local architecture on the walls . She calls herself a graffiti artist. I quite like it
