LOVE your table! what a fantastic feature piece. Can't believe you're all moved in and settled...how quickly that has come!? Love the silkwort on the walls too, great…

Hi We used Dulux Silkwort at full strength. Took a little bit of getting used to, it's a very strong, yet calming grey.

Feeling like I've neglected my thread a little...oops. There hasn't been heaps of progress going on at our place, what with all the rain, also trying to pay all…

Congratulations!!! You've done such a fantastic job with your Aveley place...it's amazing - and so good that you've got the building bug again

She tried to steer us away from the beveled too! ....but I was determined, and we were only in the shop for about 10 minutes, possibly less, because we already…

Now the real fun begins...! Your bricks will be there before you know it...but until then, you can keep falling in love with subway tiles

Hi asj25
We went with the beveled tiles. They're a bit more dramatic than the cushioned edge, but you won't regret it, if you decided to…

It has been soooo long since I've checked in on your thread....and wowee...progress, progress, progress...you're nearly at the finish line!! So quickly already!! It all looks absolutely fabulous...love the ensuite…

Thanks Kelly I do love my kitchen. We still have a fair bit of work to do with it, mostly the overhead cupboards. …

Hi Kelly,
Welcome and congrats! I just received a notification that you posted on one of the topics I've been following...and put two and two together from FB...I went…

Congrats on handover!! No more sitting back and watching the build...the hard work begins now All worth it though

Looks sooooo good!! I love it! I will definitely be checking out that artificial turf, looks the nicest I've seen so far. You must absolutely love not having sand…

Thank you everyone for your kind words!

I'm sure they will look fantastic, kelbelle...it's a really unique look, but such a statement. I can't…

hahah, yes - the ridiculous electronic whistle that goes off a few seconds after the kettle has finished boiling and sounds a bit like an ambulance off in the distance!!??…

I love Dulux Beige Royal 1/4..that's the colour I almost ended up choosing for both our bathrooms, but at the last minute went for Dulux White Duck quarter (I think…

A couple of quick pics of the finished splashback...more photos to come! (don't mind the kitty...he's using mind control to try and open the pantry..heheh)
These are the ikea cabinets…

Hi asj25, I love my subway tiles too The only place to get them from in Perth, is a little store in Freo called…

Leanne, the photos you've put up were a big factor in my decision! Thanks so much

Love the dropped and recessed ceilings...it's looking fantastic! The white set will make it feel even more spacious

Finally...a few pics to show you what we've been up to the last couple of weeks. Painting was an exhausting process...but we're so glad that we did it ourselves…

Thanks Nicci, it was a little bit to upgrade the cornices....I think a bit over the 2k mark (but we have them throughout the entire house)...some builders throw them in…

Hmmm, I honestly can't remember the last time we went into head office, but I would say it was not long after pre-start. We used to live a couple…

That's good that there's nothing major to be sorted out! ....and as for those limestone blocks, they're on your property now, so use them …

Just got news that 2nd PCI is scheduled for Monday arvo, and then we'll head back to the HGWA office for handover …

How did PCI go?? Have you been given a date for handover yet?

Hi Nicci,
We're about to have handover of our HGWA build...I know what you mean about delays, but I hope you agree with me when I say that they're really…

Have received confirmation this morning from builder that our account is now paid in full...YAY!
Now awaiting confirmation for a 2nd PCI & handover, which at this stage should be…

Super organised (we've come to expect nothing less from you ) and looking fantastic as always....it's good to do things a step at…

That will be one awesome party! (and also a great motivator for not putting off all the finishing touches that can sometimes take years...heheh).
Looking forward to seeing more pics

Thank you <3 It is rather unique...I always thought I'd go for a more modern look, so it's funny that I've gone the complete opposite.
I've just sent…
