We've lived in our house for 5 years. It's a traditional bay fronted, large 3 bed semi. We have 2 young children, 2 hairy pets and work full time so time available to do diy is limited.
Our house is liveable but so drab which gets me down. Kitchen and bathroom are fine (when clean and tidy which is rare), the bedrooms have each been decorated since moving in so I'm happy with them.
However my hall is a beige disgrace and not at all welcoming, we haven't done anything to it aside from hang a mirror above a small console table.
My lounge is grim too, again we haven't done anything to it. I've tried tarting it up with cushions (I've chosen dark blue, cream and gold cushions and accessories) but it just doesn't feel like home. I don't think the playpen and plastic toy shite helps much.
My dining room is cluttered with clothes airers and dog beds.
I just want a warm, welcoming family home but I don't know how to get there. Any advice appreciated.
