Nope Ikea. When it's worn out, which it is a bit now, I am going to spray, sand and varnish as I never want to get rid of it. It's done about 6 years so far. But the wood could do with a sand, and the mdf that makes the white bits is only sprayed once, so I will spray again.

In fact I bought the cabinet over the sink, nearly 10 years ago for our flat in London.

Obviously I mustn't forget that DH is a ceramic tiler first, then a carpenter, then a builder, so I am incredibly lucky to have such a person as I can work with cheaper materials but make them look fab. I just hope he passes some skills on to my two. I want my daughter to be able to put shelves/curtain rails/ etc up so she never has to pay anyone else to do it.

I know I'm sad but I quite like patterned carpet, and that one is lush!

The furniture & bathroom fittings are Ikea Visdalen. I have some in my bathroom, and you can sometimes find it on Ebay.
