She’s even admitted you’re meant to rub down but I don’t bother. Slap dash Chavlotte bodging up one room at a time for the gram.

Don’t get me started on how high up those blinds are - interior designer my arse.
I am not defending her but those rooms look like they would be dark, blocking some of the window with a blind wouldn't be great. Though aesthetically I get it, the ceilings would piss me off more. And the wonky screws in the switches
 
The blinds all look way too big!? They don’t look bespoke at all. Literally look off the shelf and like they do not fit the windows, in addition to the fact they’ve been poorly fitted and are too high. What a fantastic advert for blinds 2 go.

new thread title suggestion
“The Home That Made Me #7 aka the home I bodged featuring blinds2DON’T”
 
Why would you not just get a brand new solid door?! State of this?!?

Why can't she finish one thing before starting another? The kids rooms are half done, she stripped the front door to paint and yet now she's mist coating ceilings? Would drive me insane
Coz she has the patience the size of a gnat, you just know the speed she’s rushing through the decorating it’ll all look tit up close!

But this way she can say, hey everyone, look how much work we’ve done! And we’ve only been here 5 minutes 🙄 it’s like 60minute makeover, totally tit!
 
I thought this about the door. I’ve been looking at barn doors for my pantry and while browsing saw some gorgeous external doors. Not sure how much but they would really give a beautiful finish. Seems like a lot of effort to strip the door and it looks a bit flimsy.
Tbf most decent external doors are extortionately priced these days (thank insta for that trend 🙄) so if you’re on a budget, Charlotte’s way is more economically friendly if money is a bit tight. She’s just in such a rush to get it all done she’s using a heat gun & a chisel instead of taking the time to sand it down and do it properly to give a lovely finish. We all know what Charlotte’s paint jobs are like close up! 😬 I’m surprised she didn’t use her oven cleaner hack! 🙊

It's odd really because wouldn't it be more content for her if they gradually did up each room. At this speed she's going to have the whole house done(albeit shodily) in a month then what will she post?! 😂
You’re right about the content! She’s missing a trick here, she has a big following, they would probably love to see her changing the rooms one at a time, taking time to properly strip everything back and show how it’s done. Instead, she’s making us wince by painting straight on top of wood surfaces, painting around things and removing the carpet after she painted the skirting boards 🤷‍♀️ And moving onto the next room in between coats. And she had the cheek to call this house bodge central when she moved in!
