Decorating the first floor!
I've been wallpapering!! I have dry-fit all the walls (dry-fit means taping together to ensure they fit well rather than gluing) and papered all of the downstairs rooms. The things I can't decorate at this stage are the bay windows/doors in the kitchen, dining and living room. Apparently they are the last thing to be done. I had a few issues with wall papering - usually me just being completely thick! However I think they are coming together really well. I am using real wallpaper from sample books - this does mean that I can't use the same on all the walls of a room - but I do have them all going together nicely and once all the other stuff (furniture, fireplaces and drapes) are in, they won't be hugely noticeable anyway. Val really likes the living room wallpaper - Norm isn't quite so sure!
Obviously I still have skirting boards etc to add. I am still considering my options for those!
