Looks like an electric fire so you should be able to just take it out yourself and be board up any hole etc. We had same in ours and removed it ourselves.

When you say style do you mean furniture/paint?

What furniture do you need? Couple of sofas?

Hi Amy,

Personally, I love fireplace surround and think they add a lovely feature in a room, although, perhaps not with the old electric fire you have in here! It's easy enough to take this out though, then perhaps just tile up the space with something a little more modern, paint the surround, and use the space where the fire was with some display logs instead! If you hop on Pinterest, you'll see plenty of ideas for this!

For the positioning of the TV, you're slightly limited as you must be near an aerial, to avoid wires all over the place. Unless, of course, you don't watch terrestial TV - then the world is your oyster!

In terms of sofas, the size of what you go for will depend on how many people live in your property, how often you entertain etc. How do you want to use the space? This all ties in with making these big decisions.

If you need any design help, do let us know!

HI -- Well the wallpaper was just done so there is no changing that , soooo I think you should paint the rest of that wall the same white as the white background of the wallpaper and paint fireplace mantel too. Then have two small matching cabinets painted the blue from the paper or the leaf color placed on each side of the fireplace. . Then have white or glass shelves above , maybe three is best . Now the rest of the room painted the exact color of your sofa . Because the room looks small I think it would look best to have the sofa blend into the walls color wise. Now just keep some of your room accents in the blue color but not too much. Remember not to clutter the shelves and if you don't want the shelves then have a large painting on each side and have a big round mirror over the mantel and keep the small items off the mantel and onto the side cabinets .

Thanks both. At the moment I only have one couch which is the same colour as what is there currently, and a few different rugs in grey and beige colours. I might copy the mirror that is currently there and a similar lamp as I think they look well. Was thinking maybe a clear glass coffee table in the middle over a beige rug? I guess modern would be my preffered style but Im pretty open!

the place is due to be painted next month..would it be OK to paint all the walls white then add colour in just with accessories like rugs, plants, cushions, lamps etc or should I be painting in colours and doing feature walls etc...I've always liked a white and blue beachy type theme if this would work with this room ?
