They&#8217;re not perfect but heck, I&#8217;m not a pro and don&#8217;t claim to be but if I&#8217;d been asked beforehand if I&#8217;d accept the way they&#8217;ve come out I&#8217;d have said that I sure would. The proof of the pudding though, was getting the LED spots all mounted in the ceiling and doing the making good of the green areas below the bottom edge of the coving which had been damaged when the masking had been removed.

I think the space is fresh, clean looking and modern &#8211; all the things that my old house wasn&#8217;t, which is what prompted me to embark on this project in the first place. Yes, there are still things to be done but the living room and corridor will be perfectly good enough for me to move into &#8211; after a good clean that is \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Some of the shots shown above were taken with my Nikon Coolpix camera rather than my phone camera which is why the colours, especially the green are closer to the real thing. I also took a shot of the bank of sockets in the TV corner of the living room and the green in that is closer still. Unfortunately, however, the corner was in shade when I took it so it still doesn&#8217;t give the right impression of how the room looks when it&#8217;s bathed in sunlight.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/micro-trike.co.uk\/images\/29aug23_16.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/micro-trike.co.uk\/images\/29aug23_16_s.jpg\" alt=\"null\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had to remove all of the wall masking and floor covering plastic before I could see the living room and corridor in a state to judge how well they had turned out after all the time and effort I&#8217;d put into them.
