LIZ Chadwick has transformed the dullest place in her residence by replacing her uninteresting grey bathroom and likely for a shiny citrus concept... total with funky horizontal stripes.
Liz and her companion Pete Gilbertson moved into their 3- bed room semi with their two sons five a long time back and never ultimately liked the room's seem.
Liz, 43, says: "It was flawlessly practical but it was not to our taste.
"Right after a few many years of put on and tear from our two boys Isaac, 9, and Noah, 5, the rest room definitely needed interest. Obtaining lived so extended with the grey scheme, we wished a dramatic modify."
Teacher Liz and architect Pete, 43 - who stored the present lay- out to help save on plumbing charges - started by looking for the lime green and cream tiles.
Liz, from Hampton Hill, Middlesex, says: "One of the constructive issues about the place is its superior ceiling. We made a decision to make the most of this element by having horizontal stripes on one wall." They had a new 1600mm bath fitted and Pete manufactured fitted models to home the basin and toilet cistern, which a carpenter manufactured by adapting kitchen area cupboards.
A duration of polished composite worktop was fitted over the cupboards and cream rubber flooring was laid to match the partitions.
Liz says she is delighted with the transformation. "Previously I failed to spend a ton of time in right here," she states.
"Now it is really like possessing my own non-public hotel rest room in which I can retreat from the rest of the entire world."
