either o us had done anything lie this eore so it was a huge learning curve, says arrie he hardest part was having to mae decisions on every last detail y the end o it we were incapale o maing any more choices, so we agreed to as an interior designer to come in and tae over when it reached the stage o choosing oor coverings and decor e needed advice on ey finishes lie oor and wall tiles  new that i  chose something that didnt loo right we would have to live with that mistae or years, whereas the designer had the eperience and contacts to mae sure we made the right choices
