Wallpaper Update, Folks!

Yes, it was fairly painless.  Mr Carrad even agreed with my choice!  We only tried a sample at the moment but he'll be off to B & Q when he's next on his travels, to pick up a couple of rolls.
The sun sneaked into the corner of the pic, but what the heck, it's just nice that it's shining...

The tiny flowered paper was so pretty but a bit little-girly and I was aiming for a more sophisticated look

My other purchase today was another charity shop stool for £2.  The poor little thing was dirty, cigarette-burnt and raggedy but a makeover is brewing.
I've already stripped the tatty fabric and braiding off, only suffering a small injury in the process which must be a good omen. 
Ouch!
 
 Now to find some lovely fabric to cover it ...
