Relentless renovating!

We've really really been pushing it the last few weeks so that we could get this dear little house ready for lots of Christmas guests! So busy, in fact, that I haven't had time to post about it. The three weeks leading up to Christmas were literally just coming home from work, rolling up our sleeves, and getting stuck in to it. Here are a few pics that I snapped during those mad weeks.

Front room looking in to new study, floors stripped

What used to be the lounge- dining room, now a sitting room and study thanks to a new wall

The old master bed with ugly 80s built in wardrobes removed and floors stripped

New bathroom with coils for floor heating installed

Thankfully, we did manage to get it to a vaguely presentable state- walls painted and furniture put back in- before we had a million relatives over for Christmas! I'll take some pics of that later in the week. There's still a bit to do though; in fact the tiler is here right now singing K-Pop songs at the top of his lungs as he works on the bathroom.
