Tiled Bathroom!

The Bakers come to the rescue again with the ensuite tiling. What an amazing job! My renaissance bathroom is on its way...

Tiled floor!

Finally the tiles arrived! Unfortunately a lot of them were broken on delivery but we got replacements delivered. Nick and I had a long conversation about which way the tiles should be laid, and Nick won!  As his prize he got to seal the floor with linseed oil.  And then wipe it all off with turps when it went all sticky. Unfortunately we left a sponge soaked in linseed oil overnight in the kitchen.  Would you believe it - it spontaneously combusted in the early hours of the morning! Luckily we smelled it before the house set on fire!

 At last we were nearing the stage where we could move into the kitchen.

Mum and Dad come over and Dad fits the utility sink!

We have decided to paint the wall a bright orange colour.
This is going to be a sort of 50's mid century modern weird throw back room with nostalgia from my early childhood and pop art tin can folk decoupage decor...  hummm.
