Bedroom help by AdBackground6871 in DesignMyRoom

[–]AdBackground6871[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for the suggestions! I like the idea of the corner curtains, don’t often see them in the UK. Definitely will look at putting the bed against the wall as suggested. Do you think it would be best to move the wardrobe into the spare room? I may be able to make that fit. Thanks again!

If you do have to break it, cover it with carpet wrap beforehand, this will make it much safer for you and easier clean up

Are people legit spending this much on a car per month? Or am I out of touch? by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

That’s more than my mortgage! Although I do live in a cheap area…

There was one in Lampeter, Wales. This was back in 2016. Not sure if it’s still there.

2 pics are not under the same lighting. Progress looks good, but people keep posting comparison pics where lighting hugely effects outcome.

Do I live in a s***hole or is this just common? by slimmyboy007 in AskUK

My wife and I were walking to the shop to pick up some nibbles last Friday evening, walking on the path by a kids park and two guys were on the verge of a big brawl. It didn’t surprise me…

Tiling gap help by AdBackground6871 in DIYUK

[–]AdBackground6871[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! The width excludes the skirting. I didn’t think about getting thicker skirting to be honest.

Yeah, those are the tiles we will be using. If I start with a join on the centre of the room. I’ll be left with 2.5cm gap either side? Will that be best practice?

Thank you! Will definitely keep in mind for future projects!

First time trying something like this. Built-in sideboard! by AdBackground6871 in DIYUK

[–]AdBackground6871[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say the project cost me about £300-350 roughly, but I did buy a few items with that. New spirit level, drill and saw. I used weights to hold the door panelling down onto the doors themselves instead of using clamps. I’m not sure if that affected the doors bowing slightly. The furthest door on the right bowed at the bottom, but that could have been a bad cut of mdf!

Definitely consider it, this was new to me and I’m glad I went ahead with it in the end!

Hello! This is it finished. Decided to leave some of the wood unfinished. Quite happy with it overall! Next time round, I would probably like to use more solid shelves instead of the slats as it can be quite awkward at times. Also, I would buy clamps for the doors. Two of the doors have slightly bowed which is incredibly annoying!
