Painting has commenced!!






The painters have started last week and will be staining my feature doors today and hopefully finished by Friday.






This then leaves Electrical fitouts of which I picked up all our lights on the weekend but the downlights were the wrong colour. We were after white but got polished brass. We thought about keeping them (not) and will be swapping them today or tomorrow.






I then beleive they will work on flooring and carpets, driveway and path, fittings for cupboards and wardrobes. Roller door. Not sure what else. Starting to get excited!!!






Hopefull I can take some more photos when the electrician needs the lights. Here are the kids lights for their rooms.




This one is Sophia's room. She has a 4 poster bed with white side curtains and very pretty pink accessories. She is only 4 but I'm sure this can grow with her and look modern and sophisticated as she grows up.



Here is Lachlan's - As he is only 18 months I thought I could get away with this. Still not sure how to decorate his room as he will still be in cot for a little whil and cot has removable side for small bed. But I thought maybe a fire truck bed would be cool.







Here is a picture kind of of my couch. I almost went for the red one but eventually chose Chocolate Brown Leather. I can then add a bit of red to this if I want to or change to green, blue, orange whenever I choose.
I did not get the ottoman ($495) so I will be on the lookout for an old one to do up in a complimentary colour.
Enough raving for now.

TILES!





























I have tiles!!! I must say I love the look and can picture the end. Painting is supposed to start tomorrow so when we go out this weekend it should be painted.
I went out to have my windows measured but there is a 5ml discrepancy in the front windows, this means if i want plantation shutters I would have some light coming through. Just not sure if that's a good idea for a bedroom and also I could not get my flyscreens out if inside the window.
Not sure what to do now. I can put them outside the window but i'm having trouble picturing this. MMMM something to google for the next few days anyway. Hope you enjoy the pics.
