I'm slowly making progress..
I've been asked a couple of questions about items.
Fire surround and TV unit: Rustoleum furniture paint. Satin finish in the colour "black sand". It's a black/blue. Lovely paint to use. I bought it from Amazon.
The rug and firescreen from Ebay. They were both auctions. A little tip with ebay auctions. I bid within the last 5 seconds. Its risky, but works. I watch how the bids are going, then put a high bid in. Ebay only bids up in increments of a pound or a fiver. I actually won the rug by £1.00.
Be careful though and make certain it's a bid you can afford. Stick to your top bid, no more. You may get it cheaper. It all depends on other bidders.
Wallpaper from Wilkos in their sale. It was supposed to be £14 a roll. I got it for £7.
The emulsion underneath the dado rail is a dupe of farrow & ball "railings' which is a black/blue colour. My local decorating centre mixed it for £35 for 5L as opposed to f&b £90.
The curtains were from Fb marketplace and cost £40. They're really good quality. Exactly what I was looking for.
The coving was from B&Q. It was £39 for a pack which did the whole room.
The ceiling rose cost £18 from Amazon.
The biba cushion is from Binns in Darlington. It was half price.
The tiebacks are from Amazon. £20
The shelves are from IKEA. They were about £12 each. I already had the brackets which were originally from Amazon a few years ago.
The glassware on the shelves is Carnival glass, I've collected over a few years.
