Or maybe a Describe Your Sitting Room if you don't want to show it :). I need inspiration.

After Christmas I'm starting again with mine. I'm changing the dark grey/blue corner sofa, getting rid of the Ikea bookcases and repainting the nearly white walls. Only problem is I don't know what I'm changing them all to!

I'm (probably) keeping the wooden floorboards, and definitely keeping the tiles around the fireplace.

Any ideas?

"Recently - in another room. No tv in my living room. Big comfy sectional in TV room - much more cozy and 'soft' for relaxing.

@recently sky Q box with tv on wall with sky Q box mounted behind the tv not a single wire in sight looks so much tidier.

I love seeing inside other people's homes. I always say I'd love to look in every house in our street to see what actually can be done with these small houses.

Mines is all cream/brown/gold but I love my cream and gold glittery wallpaper on the fireplace wall, it really changed the room when we went from greys back to creams.

Completely outting myself but @RaininSummer that's me you're watching on The Chase 😂😂

hmmwhatatodo · 10/12/2018 20:28

Wow I’monlyhere... how did you get on?

ChoseCake · 10/12/2018 21:40

Is it really imonlyhere?! That must be a strange feeling, reading a thread, minding your own business, and suddenly there you are on tv! You're famous, and beautiful too.

Thank you for all the pictures, I'm taking note. My problem is I like them all so am no closer to deciding what to do! I had a massive clear out on Saturday though, and have arranged for disposal of current sofa, so slow moves in the right direction have been made.

RaininSummer · 10/12/2018 22:16

I'monlyhere, that is so funny! I can't remember how you did as we tend to watch it on catch up in no particular order. I didn't even register what was on the TV when I took the snap.
