Hi all, and welcome to The Decorator.

20200615_094633697138068775691971.jpgThis is (mainly) the journey of a 1990s end terrace cottage in a village just outside of Leeds.

Here, you’ll see how it’s transformed from a dated, wallpaper-heavy home to a modern, comfortable nest.

In that nest is me, Alex, my husband Paul, our cat Boris and most recently, our daughter Anna.

Our budget isn’t massive so there’s been plenty of planning and manual labour, but I hope our experiences help you to find a few home ideas, new techniques and inspiration.

Maybe you’re planning a kitchen extension?
Decorating the bathroom on a budget?
Or need to up-sex your bedroom?

If you’re quite alright on all counts, then maybe I can just help you decide where to eat on Saturday.

Enjoy! I’d love to hear your thoughts.
