Happy Easter everyone! I am so sorry I haven't been around much this past week, but I have been so busy (and loving it!). I wake at 4am most mornings ready to bounce out of bed and get going. A change of scenery has definitely motivated me. I am looking forward to the 4 day break though. …
We're here! We've done it! I am very tired, but over the moon. We had lots of helpers over the weekend so we couldn't have done it without them. I have a garage full of stuff still to unpack and already lots of furniture either doesn't fit, or suit, so I'll be having a garage …
This is what I did all day yesterday. It's coming together nicely. I'll only have to do a bit more today and then I should be done. There is always a lot of stuff I like to take in the car, so that will be my job on the weekend. There's no point of packing …
We're in the thick of it now people! 8 more sleeps! It's all happening. My husband has taken the day off work today to lay floorboards. I am loving them sick! They are a floating timber floor in Spotted Gum. The kitchen tiling has been grouted. I am so happy!!! All the tiles came from …
Firstly, I wanted to say thank you for your overwhelming support yesterday. I am feeling a bit better again today and my attention has turned to my new house! It's powering along... we're almost there. I've got finials to go on the gables, plantation shutters to come and of course it will need landscaping. These are the door profiles I …
Hi guys! Want to win an IKEA business pack? I was lucky enough to be sent one, and I am loving them sick. I've popped them away for now until we move house, but can't wait to use them. They are fabulous! The giveaway is valued at roughly $100, and would be perfect for those who are looking to …
Morning! So, here is my house again this week... slowly but surely it's coming along... I've been watching every day and something little keeps getting done. Maybe 4 weeks and it's all ready! The gutters and downpipes are going on - just the finials on the gables to go (and some more paint). They've cleared …
Howdy there! You know that wall I have sort of been carrying on about? Yeah, well it's happening baby! First we started with a frame, which got changed and tweaked, but now I am starting to see it come together and it WORKS! This is what I call the front - tv on top fireplace …
Hello hello... I haven't got much to say this week. So my blog has been quiet. Come over to my Instagram for a little visual feast. I'm hanging out over there... More external house painting today. The plastering inside is almost done. The pro-painters go inside next Wednesday to do their job. The tiler is …
Morning! Just quick post today... the plaster has been hung! Here is the entrance. Glass to go in the sides of the door. Kitchen/family/dining. The hole in the ceiling is where that wall will be to house the fireplace (which will go in one day when my bank account is full again haha!) and tv. Double sliding …
There she is. Sitting there in the street. That blue sarking is going and we've got some weatherboard across the front now... It was so sunny there yesterday evening so it looks like a big white blob here. I can't wait to see it with green grass and plants. I am visualising it all. And …
Hello there! Look! We started painting our house over the weekend. We wanted to get stuck in to it as our lease is ending soon and I can't wait to move in. I am so happy with how it has turned out so far.... The colour is Colorbond Shale Grey and thanks to Taubmans (who …
