Thanks you to you all for your great feed back. Claire to answer your question, lighting is such a great investment and essential to any UK garden where the light fades and for many months your garden is appreciated through the cold months from the warmth of the interior space. What good is it if you can't see it in the evening! its not too late to lay cables along the back of your flower beds, the cable can be laid just below the surface of the soil for ease of maintenance. Lighting up foliage is the best way to illuminate a garden. It softens the light in much the same way as lamp light in a room. Its always best not to see the actual source of the light but instead highlight plants and features such as walls, sculptural elements or water features. Its worth every penny. Good luck with your project!

Like that idea and my flooring is around the same shade of wood. I'm not sure what state the walls will be in under the paper as all the other rooms we have done half the plaster fell off but we are prepared for re plastering it is south facing living room with a big window. I do not know if to re paper with a textured paper then paint or just plaster flat walls and paint that is why I'm open to ideas.

The client was unsure what to do with this plain wall. He considered hanging art work but instead decided to turn the wall into a piece of art! The microcement compliments the kitchen units already fitted and brings the whole room together.
