The main bedroom has been living room, kitchen, store room, workshop - in fact everything except a bedroom. The time came to gut itand rip out the old fireplace
frame and plasterboard
and then skim the walls and ceiling to create the master bedroom. With Joe the Plasterer now living on the island I decided it would be best to leave the plastering to him
We had bought 6 doors from an architectural salvage place and all I had to do was build a frame to make two fitted wardrobes that opened and closed
Unfortunately I got so involved with what I was doing I forgot to take more photos of the process but after much painting, papering, installing coving and fireplace fitting it looks a bit like this
The final fitting of the original half tester bed has yet to be done - watch this space
