Tuesday October 9th 2018


Wallpaper. Laura Ashley wallpaper. And from tomorrow, Laura Ashley wallpaper destined for the bin. For tomorrow sees the arrival of Gill, she of the flashing scraper, the whirling brush and an eye for perfection in the world of Decor. It has only taken close on nine years to get motivated and re-decorate the house after moving in in 2009. In my book, life is too short for DIY. So tomorrow Gill will arrive and remove the paper in the hall, stairs and upper landing, and make good. Then with a notion to being absolutely crazy with our zest for off the wall radical colour schemes, we chose magnolia paint to replace the current 'gold' paper. Or brown paper as Julie calls it. 

I knew the person who put this paper up in around 2005, when the previous owners who I knew through a mutual friend and whom I bought the house from, re-decorated from top to bottom with Laura Ashley everything, carpets, curtains, blinds, wall paper and fixtures.   Times change. Better get my cheque book a-ready then!
