The Lounge Room

Our lounge/dining room is still a work in progress. The walls and ceiling have been painted, but there are lots of touch ups that need doing. The cornice and all the architraving need painting, and the two doorways to the front room need to be fixed up.

There has been lots of work done to it so far, though - the main part being the fireplace - which is a big feature. Michael and I began to mosaic the tiles one night, both of us full of enthusiasm about getting rid of the ugly red brick.





After a long (long, long) process - of which Michael played a very small part, and many lessons learnt about grouting porous tiles. This is the (almost) end result.



And a closer view of the mosiac work



I will update with a whole room photo when the whole room is ready.
