My room...
A bit about me
I’m Carole Pielichaty andI live with my husband, Jurek, and our daughters, twins Claudia and Louisa, 21, and Mathilda, 19. Our home is a fourbedroomed terrace in Middlesex.
My problem living room
The room was looking very oldfashioned with a grubby carpet and too much wood everywhere. The yellow walls had dated and the whole room needed brightening and lightening up.
