Siobhan and Lindsey will each be designing a 2-bed luxury holiday villa..... can’t wait!

Misty

I don't know if siobhan has thought of the brief at all? What makes it for a family?

@TheSpottedZebra

Misty

Is to just me whose mind went somewhere else...?! grin
THIS is why I love MN

Puffins are the king of birds imo. I'm obsessed with them
Misty

Sorry!

Good call for puffin being the next owl/flamingo featured on every pencil case in Paperchase, though.

You've sullied them for me now

@TheSpottedZebra

I LOVE puffins. I used to have a soft toy puffin when I was young. I assumed it was actually size. But when I saw them in the flesh (feather?) I was so surprised that they're really quite diddy. #puffinofdeception

Puffins are amazing! We went to Wales last year and visited the Skomer Island. I had loads land on my head!

Sorry my mind is in the gutter... I will zip it, except to say I prefer lynsey's and think she's considered the brief more (at all) than siobhan

@dillite

Siobhan has inspired me to buy a shitload of gold leaf (well copper) to do my wardrobe up. And bedside tables.

Is it expensive?

Siobhan is basically putting her dress on the walls.

I feel like Lynsey is more versatile. Siobhan has a style and she sticks with it.

Oooo that was a snotty exchange from the assistants.

I'm actually feeling quite annoyed with Siobhan for openly nicking Lynsey's partition idea

Paul's inner bitch just came out there.

@Cocolapew no, not at all. I got 600 sheets to start off from ebay. It's probably not the best quality but hey ho

Ohh I'm going to buy some too

@Halsall

I'm actually feeling quite annoyed with Siobhan for openly nicking Lynsey's partition idea

I missed that exchange. Did she openly admit to stealing it?

Siobhan's downstairs is so dark. Really not what I want from a holiday villa. I want light, airy and to feel like it's bright and sunny outside.

Paul is nasty!!!

I love the gold leaf on the different angled ceilings

We have ceilings like that on the stairwell up to our attic, I’m in the midst of painting them all supermatt white (with fluorescent dado rail like a streak of highlighters up the stairs) and planning a 3D gallery wall type thing. But maybe I could metal-leaf one angle!!! Oooh 🤔

Gold leaf on a staircase, where people are going to be brushing past each other and lugging suitcases, is such an impractical idea. It's going to look terrible after a month or two.

That Tuscan reddy orange paint is vile. She's choosing too many clashy things.

@LemonVioletgo for it! What's the worst that can happen? You will just have to paint it over.

I did a kitchen island in bronze leaf once. About 10 yrs ago, I was ahead of the curve !
It looked amazing... until I wrecked it with Cillit Bang.

Bang, and all your hard work is gone!

I'm really not sure of that heavy thing, hanging on the stairs, in a rented space.
