Pamela Alexander, a savvy woman from the UK, used bargain buys from B&Q, Dunelm, eBay, The Range and Next, to turn her dark and wet living room into a big, beautiful space. Thrilled with her DIY overhaul, Pamela took to social media to share a before and after look at the space, leaving many open-mouthed.

Posting on DIY On A Budget, a private Facebook group with 2.2 million members, Pamela shared snaps of her living room, which is now something many of us could only dream of. Alongside the post, Pamela wrote: “Had water damage to my wall. “Couldn’t decide what to do with it when decorating so I panelled all the way round.

“I live in a flat and it was all done on a budget.”. Pamela then opened up to Fabulous about her DIY project and shared: “I’m always redoing my home, my style isn’t to everyone’s taste and I source a lot of what I do.”. Pamela confirmed that she used panelling strips from B&Q and has a “handyman who helps me with my ideas”.
