I love Josette wallpaper. I used it on my chimney breast in my old bedroom. Loved it so much, another shade went up under the dado up the stairs and in the hall in my house too. We then moved and we have it now in our new bedroom in yet another shade! I put the paper up in my old bedroom. It’s tricky but not the worst paper I have ever hung.

Hi linen check fabric looks good but would be concerned tattle clunch might look green in some light ! It might be better with white tie if you like the creamy colour or stony ground. It's very difficult to give you advice without having the samples of wallpaper and wood worktop in front of me I do sometimes goggle rooms or kitchens painted in farrow and ball white tie for example lots of images come up it also might be worth calling farrow and ball direct as they offer a great service on the tel for free Am assuming you are using an water based eggshell from farrow and ball and not colour matching the paint !otherwise all your work will be in vain as colour matching paint will never be the same as buying the paint from farrow and ball Advice don't paint the wall in any farrow and ball tester pots paint some lining paper or card board then you can move the board around the room and see the colour in different day light and in the evening in artificial light. Also means you can then save your £3.50 pot on the board ready to use in another room or lend to a friend. If you paint squares of colours all over the wall then it will only confuse you and it's difficult to paint over Farrow and ball paint is brilliant but never colour match Best of luck wish I could help you further Lindsey

Hi Tino! I see what you mean, it is missing a little something. A few things you could do: 1) You mentioned a grey-yellow-white theme and your inspiration pic also goes that way but in your actual room there is no sign of the yellow. What it would do is bring depth and points that your eyes will naturally focus on when you look at your room. When you don't have that it's easy to feel like the room is plain. Especially if you look at your third picture (just the bed) it's very pastel, almost faded so bring some contrast. 2) Your light fitting to me is just too plain, it's very standard looking so I would go for something a little more unique, without going crazy of course but even a glass one for example like this: Available here: https://www.hutsly.com/collections/lighting/products/warsaw-glass-globe-pendant-light 3) The third thing is that currently your bed is a little lost in the room, against a white background. I would add bedisde tables and table lamps and more importantly I would put wall art up, maybe a couple of square pictures above the bed or one large one. That will also instantly change the feel of the room. Maybe something geometric to tie in with your (very cool btw) carpet.

hi Toby With a 130k£ budget as covey kitchens mention it below you would have a lots of potential in your house. Back to your must list here my opinion Our main goals are: 1. Must - our main living room moved to the rear, facing on to the back garden. By the look of it with your new floor plan compare to existing you would have quite a lot of structural works involved this would takes lots of money out of your pocket because of a profession fees remodeling and structural works. You need to be sure you know exactly what would you like to have and you try to use as much as possible out of the existing area to have spare money on a longer therm. By the look of it your floor joists are running from the left to the right and sitting on a studwalls. That means whatever you take off there it would be structural works involved too. Good to have your existing drawings for a first floor too just to check any other studwalls you would like to remove is it continues or not. Structural works are one of the most expensive method of a built so if im you and would like to have all of my must list to happen i would try to use as much internal partition walls as possible and keep it as is. 2. Must - We also want a much bigger kitchen and dining area. We are a bit traditional, and are not big fans of the huge open plan spaces which seem to be all the rage these days. We would prefer the flexibility of being able to close the kitchen and dining areas off from the living room when required (so you don't see all the mess and washing up for example!). That can be easily done with doors but at a same time be aware about fire regulations when you choosing the door in between the living room and kitchen. 3. Must - refurbish the upstairs bathroom and main bedroom. Bathroom refurb for a normal size usually about 4-5000£ depends on your expectations. 4. Should - Have a bigger porch/hallway for storage. What type of storage you looking for? Understair most of a time you have lots of space to save up for shoes and other household stuff. We built into a first 3 steps 3 chest of draws last time for a client for all there shoes and its always a dead space anyways. (It can be a nice future by the way) 5. Should - Create a space for a home office (convert garage?) Garage conversion can be a really good idea but if you would like to convert all and have windows and door by the garage door again might be architect and planning involved. If you would like to use as a home office better to shut down one third of it on a front and use it as a bin and bike storage with a garage door and 6. Should - Maintain storage for lawn mowers, ladders, etc that are currently stored in the garage door and use a rest as a home office. If you cant go ahead with a storey on a top you could fit a roof light in too too have some natural space to come through. 7. Could - Build over the garage and extend the tiny third bedroom to make it usable as a guest room. Thats can be a possibility as mention before but first you suppose to have a structural survey to be done to have a look at the existing footings and check if another storey can go to the top. Few time if its not enough you still have a chance to build over with a timber to timber structure and brick clad around as the weight of a structure is 3 rd them the standard. I hope so this would help for you.
