Neo guesthouse

After last week moving in the worst rainy day of the year. Here are some pictures of the apartment. It's work in progress but I am already happy of the result. In front of the chimney you can see my two "new" bedside tables :-)

What do you think?

Monday is nice for once :-)

Monday normally we're not too excited because it's the first day of the week. Because we have to go to the office, because we are already planning things for the weekend. Shortly said, we would prefer that after monday comes friday. Well today we're just happy that it's monday because what all nice things we saw today.

-Saw some gorgeous apartment back on the selby.

Brafa 2011 press conference

Yesterday I had a day off from work but thats doesn't mean I had nothing to do. First I had to make a nice breakfast to my B&B guest. And after that I had to run to Antwerp to assist at the press conference of the BRAFA edition 2011. The conference started with a breakfast and sad news. The president of honour Madame Zeberg died after a cancer. She was a great lady with a wonderful shop in Antwerp behind the Cathedral.

This year the BRAFA will expose some new exhibitors and also some masterpieces from the collection of the Mayer Van Den Bergh Museum in Antwerp.

After the conference we received a tour in this wonderful museum and a walking dinner with champagne.

I am sure the edition of 2011 will be even better than last year. But I will have to wait till the end of january before it starts.

Here are some pictures of the museum.

Who said decorating was easy!!!

Today I was at the office. But since my B&B is open, it seems I have two jobs :-). I think even more than two jobs. Doesn't matter, I am enjoying it. I know why i fall a sleep at night. My first guest arrived saturday and stays till the 12th of november. My place is still a building site, but it's already much better than on the pictures. Will make some more this week. But here are some from Friday so you can see the real color I used.

Stay tuned, some more will follow.

To be continued

Hello Blog land, I am not a lot online these days. Well at least I have an excuse now :-)

Sorry for the bad quality pictures. I will do my best to make better one's. But here you can see that I am progressing. The apartment has to be finished saturday because I have guests coming over. It will not be totally furnished, but at least all the paint work will be done. I hope so :-s

Work Work Work!!!

Its midnight and I am just out of the bathroom. Took all the paint away, even my hair was full of it. But at least I worked a lot on the new apartment today. This weekend I have to do the biggest part of all the paintwork. Here are some pictures of the action going on.

Will keep you all up to date ;-)
