The Lounge which is in actual fact still in the making !

Time for a wee update. I have been a bit slack this week with the posting which is mainly due to the fact that I have been so friggin cold. We are having Arctic conditions threatening our every move right now here in England. Who can possibly work in sub zero temperatures ? Moi ? Certainly not ! My brain does nothing but go on standby during such times I mean I think I should have emigrated years ago to hotter climates ! In actual fact I believe (and who would not agree with me) that it should be made illegal to even work in such conditions ?! Ha that would be so fabulous ! Sorry I can't come to work today as I'll be arrested ! LOL !

OK Chrissi seriously you are losing it. Pipe down already and get back to the topic 'The Lounge' ! Righty ho then ! The thing is I would have rather have said it with pictures but a bit of a hiccup and I seem to have misplaced all of the pictures of the lounge in the making; or did I even take any ?? Hmmm .... there's a blonde moment. Bloody hell I have no idea ! Why is it I can't work with both a windows functioning computer and a macbook all at the same time ? Does anyone else have this issue or is it just me ? Anyhow, if I do find any photos I'll post them later on.

In the meantime, I will leave you with a before and after. Although I am not completely satisfied with the end result, but due to financial means I am having to put the lounge and its interiors on hold for a little while :( Shame as I have seen so many things I would like to buy ! But I guess that is always the way when you don't have the money !!!



Within the next month I really need to work on how to make my photos more pretty looking; they are just so blah. Does anyone with a Apple have any suggestions for software that might help me fancy up my pictures a tad bit ? I mean just look at them they are soooo boring !! Any help would be tremendous.

Wow beautiful! Well done. I think Apple has a program called aperture which allows you to edit pictures. I am about to purchase photoplus from Serif.com which also looks great :). Not sure if it is Mac compatible though....

Wow it looks great! There is a photo editing add from Apple called "aperture". Not sure how much it is, but I have been thinking of getting a Mac so I watched a few tutorials. Seems pretty easy to use.

Thanks sweetie I'll check that one out ... I was looking at Adobe and it is so confusing ! x

iphoto works fine for me, as long as you take a nice picture it will help you edit the basics ie crop, lighting, colour xx
