This weekend, the decorating begins. Yes, I have bitten off more than I can chew, but what is life if not enthusiastically inviting choking hazards? I’ll be removing cabinets, sanding and priming carpentry, cleansing walls with sugar soap, and, if I’ve done everything, covering the kitchen in B&Q’s Chorizo matte emulsion paint.

Sounds like a fun and ambitious weekend ahead! Decorating can be such a rewarding experience, even if it feels a bit overwhelming. Enjoy the process!
