I WILL ALWAYS…

Paint my ceilings, architraves and skirting the same colour as the walls, but in semi-gloss.

Choose french doors over bifolds. They take up a little more real estate in terms of the door swing, but they don’t have the dirt-collecting rail on the floor.

Need lots of natural light.

It not only makes everything look bigger and better, it’s good for the soul and your health.

Live within my means. Saving and then spending your own hard-earned cash makes you really careful about where it goes.
