I think I discovered a cure for my bookoholism – painting a bookshelf was very time consuming and an oil-based paint gave me mild headaches and left me feeling slightly nauseous. But the pleasure of putting all our books up in the nice single rows somehow dulls the memory of the hours spent painting. The sight of the white bookshelf and the multi-colourfull & multi-sized books makes me smile. I am one of those people, who gets the desire to stroke the books when I pass by them.
We are acting like the downstairs renovations are finished, but there are still few little things to get done, like painting the skirting behind the refrigerator and making curtains.
I’ve uploaded some photos of the ground floor prior to renovations to
Flickr, in case you want to see the changes for yourself.

The kitchen looks fantastic! I looked at the before, and that's quite a transformation! Well done.
Wow Beautiful. I love the clean lines.
Wow - can't believe it has been so quick with the renovations (or may be it just seems that way to me). All the space looks really nice - and bright :) Love the red bricks in the kitchen!
I have serious bookcase envy right now! Gorgeous renovations.
looks fantastic, love that wall of books! xxx
It looks great. :) I'm also loving the wall of books.
Very cool. I love the kitchen and I adore the bookshelves (being a librarian and avid book collector myself ;-))!!

This is beautiful - just beautiful!
I'm so glad I popped in! For some weird reason you were not appearing any longer on my dashboard "reading list". I didn't mean to abandon ship! I was just tsk-tsking that you weren't writing any more!
Your new kitchen and wall of bookshelves are gorgeous and I'm envious!
