Update on the progress!

Well it's been another 2 or so months since I last posted and again so much as happened!

It's true what they say, your house is never truly finished. You will always find something else to do.

And in our case that meant ripping out perfectly good tiles to the splash back in the laundry and taking it back to the studs to re-do the tiling as well as changing over all the tapware and accessories to matte black. My obsession at the moment!

We decided to go for a hexagon marble tile and I absolutely LOVE it. It's stunning!

We also have finished off the small side with some stepping stones, pebbles and a little garden and also our very own veggie garden.

We then also ripped out the UGLY cheapo temporary letterbox and made a new one, which now compliments the rest of the house.

Nice and settled!

So... I have a confession. I have been absolutely terrible in updating since we moved in! Its been 7 months.. crazy i know! We have finished the house (apart from the small side which has been started) in between trying to finish we have had our wedding, honeymoon and a brother who had a bad car accident which meant our household of 2 with 2 dogs  went to 8! And 4 dogs as my brother, his wife and 2 kids needed to move in till he recovered enough to navigate stairs and of course i forgot to mention my parents sold their family house of 22 years and are building so they also moved in!

So i am hoping you all can forgive me for the lack of updates! Anyway here is some photos!

Hope you like it :)

1 week to go!!!!

So I have been a little quiet on here lately! Apologies however life has just gotten so busy with packing, organising and work has been insane since the crazy storms we had!!

A lot has happened in the last couple of weeks with the tiling being completed, the painting started and almost complete inside today and the plumbing rough in completed and the electrical rough in started! We are so so close to the end it is unbelievable!

It has been super hard getting photos of the painting as his stuff has been everywhere and we have been going after work which means it gets dark pretty quickly after arriving.

The colour we picked for our wall is Taubman's Stonebridge, it is absolutely stunning on the walls! We are over the moon with our choice and couldn't be happier!

Can't wait to get some more photos to show you all!

Don't you just love our beautiful standard toilets? 

My favourite!!! The beautiful oven and range hood! 

Tiling!!

Thursday 23rd April

The boys FINALLY turned up to start tiling after not coming Monday and then category 2 cyclone Tuesday and Wednesday!! Absolutely loving it so far!!

What beautiful masterpieces!

My amazing hubby to be has been very busy working completing 2 entertainment units custom built for the niches so they fit snug and also our vanity tops. To say I am in LOVE is an understatement. It is everything I pictured and more. I just love how different and unique our vanities will look in our beautiful home once it is complete. I am even more amazed as he is an office worker and doesn't even had any sort of trade under his belt! I am totally bragging - I am allowed to right? 

Excuse the mess in the photos - can't you tell we are packing? lol
