  • Welcome to my latest living toom makeover video! In this episode, I'll be showing you how I transformed my living room with a beautiful floral Laura Ashley wallpaper, some wall panelling, and a fresh coat of paint.
    I'll show you how I added some wall panelling to give the room a more elegant and sophisticated look. You'll see how I measured and cut the panels, and then how I installed them securely onto the walls.
    By the end of this video, you'll see how I transformed my living room into a stunning and inviting space, all through a combination of wallpapering, wall panelling, and painting. Whether you're a DIY enthusiast or just looking for some inspiration for your own home renovation project, you will enjoy this one!
    Wallpaper: Laura Ashley Elderwood Natural
    Paint: Crown Antique Cream Matt

    It's the Kallax with 4 holes that people use for window seats and put a cushion over the top.. Catherine...you can put legs on it instead of making it built in and move it somewhere else for Christmas! Some embellishments using clay and silicone molds could make it more cottage-y for your space! The new wallpaper is simply beautiful! 🌻

    One of my favourite things about Christmas is seeing the lights of everyone’s Christmas trees in their front windows, I wouldn’t put a window seat in personally. Maybe a small wingback armchair that doesn’t take up the whole space?

    For a window seat. Make one with locking wheels. And storage inside. That way you can move it for your tree. Then move it back.

    You did a better job then the 'professionals' my daughter hired to do the same thing in her living room. It truly looks amazing. Year ago when I was in college I had a tiny kitchen,my father cut a small round table in half attached it with hinges to the wall the legs folded under and I could put it down to give me more room. The same concept could be use in your space, when its Christmas.

    Hi Catherine🤗 Love the mouldings. Looks wonderful. It would be fun to tag along with you to the fabric shop for pillow fabric. The mirror could look fine behind the fabulous pink couch. And whose to say you couldn't find another mirror for chimney wall when you decide whether or not to put something there. Or put that one back and find another for sofa wall. They could reflect each other and bounce some light around the room. Cheers!
