Taking to their TikTok account to share their journey, the couple posted a video recently showing how they revamped their fireplace. 5 The couple saved £150 Credit: TikTok/@doingup_dyers 5 They used a £38 sleeper from Wickes Credit: TikTok/@doingup_dyers 5 They used wood stain to give it a bit of life Credit: TikTok/@doingup_dyers Hannah and Robbie were quoted £200 to add the oak decor but decided to do it themselves and saved £150.
In the video , the pair explain they took a trip to WIckes to buy a sleeper which cost them £38. They took it home and Robbie cut it to size in their back garden before sanding it to make sure it was smooth and ready to be painted. They used wood stain to give the sleeper wood some colour.
They hung it on the wall using £12 brackets from Amazon. Other tools such as the wax to treat the wood was borrowed from a friend while they had already had tools such as the sander they used. Once dried, Hannah and Robbie hung it above their fireplace and decorated it with candles, a small plant pot, and incense sticks.
