First day back after the New Year and straight back into it 💪
Starting a decorating job today – giving this bathroom a fresh new look.

Before the paint comes out though, a bit of prep is needed. The window was fitted a couple of years ago and, to be honest, the plastering around it wasn’t the best… so the ceiling needs sanding back to get it right. No shortcuts here – good prep makes all the difference to the final finish.

I’ll pop a few progress pics up as I go.
Happy New Year from The Odd Guy 🖌️
