The Recruitment Director said she also turned to eBay to buy brackets and legs to bring the budget DIY project to life.

Angie has been transforming the room into a bigger bedroom for her ten-year-old daughter Lulu with the help of her husband Tony. 

She shared their DIY success to Facebook, writing: “Hi guys, I just thought I’d share a before and after of a tricky corner of our loft bedroom. 

“This whole project cost around £100 - we just cut a load of left over OSB boards we found in a skip to create shelves and a study area/dressing table with hairpin legs from EBay.
