COSY CORNER ‘Layering the black wrought-iron chair with cushions and a throw has created a relaxing and handy place to sit’
‘It was so CLA IDEA TO STEAL ‘Trawl antiques fairs, stores, Etsy and social media to track down beautiful antiques and vintage pieces’
COME ON IN!
ABOUT ME I’m Katrina Thomas, 50, and I work in oil trading. I live with my fiancé Aris Baroutakis, 48, who works in the same industry, in a 500-year-old, Georgian-fronted, detached house in Surrey. We moved here in June 2015. THE CHALLENGE This bathroom was dark and cramped until we took the plunge. The toilet was a massive wooden throne and the first thing that was banished! MY WISHLIST I wanted the biggest, deepest bath I could find. I had a clear vision of walking upstairs to see a beautiful roll-top bath along the back wall. The room had to be far more spacious for Aris to walk about without banging his head!
