Chapter 6 – Romance blossoms

All rooms will have pink wallpaper with a small imperfection at the bottom. In addition, each room will have a different wallpaper that also contains pink from the bottom.

For the beautiful finish, Jean Paul and Lana will stick a strip that has the color of the top wallpaper. The floor covering again matches the top wallpaper. They had already painted the ceilings white, so the team can immediately start working on the new wallpaper.

The living room will have a rust brown smooth carpet, the pink bottom, white wallpaper with burgundy flowers and ribbon. The bathroom and study will have a brown smooth carpet, the pink bottom, off-white wallpaper with a natural floral pattern and green band. JP’s room has an off-white woolly carpet, which is nice on his feet. Above the pink bottom is a light blue wallpaper with pink and gray flowers and a similar band.

The attic room will become the girls’ room. It will have a burgundy red smooth floor covering. The wallpaper above the pink bottom will be white with flowers in pink, yellow and red and a matching band.

And then the kitchen. Claire can’t wait for it to be ready. Above the pink bottom is a yellow wallpaper with a floral pattern in all kinds of colors that fits perfectly with the brownish floor covering. Unfortunately, the kitchen comes last, because it is functional.

Lisa will make old pink velvet curtains for all rooms. All curtains will have a band to keep them out.

For days, Lana and Jean Paul have been making buckets of wallpaper paste and emptying them one by one. They are in good spirits. They sing and whistle and are happy. They joke with each other and regularly burst out laughing. They have more and more fun together. They realize that they are madly in love with each other, but they don’t express it yet.

Sometimes someone from the housemates comes to admire their work. They see that they work well and that it turns out beautiful. The team is very precise. One by one, the rooms are ready and furnished with the furniture they already have. All in all, they have enough to move forward for the time being. The rest will come later.
