It is finally here!

The window in my kitchen that i have been waiting for is finally here.
After 2 attempts to get the size correct. 3rd time lucky, it arrives and fits in place perfectly.
My butt window is here!
The kitchen space
I am inlove.
East Coast Pools have also started...
There was a lot of rock to dig threw but they finally got there.
Inbuilt pool cleaning system - goodbye creepy crawly
It was really cool to watch how it all comes together.
Now to choose the pool colour. Pail blue, clear blue, dark blue. Not to mention the tile band colour.. Suggestions on this please.

It has been a hive of activity at the block for 2 weeks now and with the gyprock almost complete and the kitchen caucus due in any day now it looks like they are on target.
My ensuite and WIR

My bedroom or i should say Our bedroom

My walk in robe - oops Our WIR



I will have Vivid white doors and skirting boards with Builders White on the ceiling. The main wall colour i am not totally sure on yet. I am after a White but cant choose between Antique USA or Hog Bristle Half. Leaning more toward the Hog Bristle Half at the moment. Need to make a decision on this VERY soon as i think the painter will be starting Monday with the ceilings and priming wall coat.

The exterior painting of the house has  also begun.  Half Dune is the main colour and Woodland Grey as the feature colour.


Just need the scaffolding to come down so i can have a real look at it.
25 sleeps to go.....not that i am counting hehe

    1. We are all so excited. It has been going since oct last year. So we are all just wanting normality again. Ie: mowing lawns, washing cars, hanging clothes on the line.

  8. Hi Pen. Catching up with your past posts! The kitchen window is stunning! A really stand-out feature!As to pool colour, well here are my thoughts!
    Our last house was a really blue blue. Eeeek! Easier to show you a pic :

    It was lovely but in hindsight (love that word) reminds me of the colour of a blu-loo. I had wanted a dark pool but David vetoed that. We live in an area well known for funnel web spiders and they can live on the bottom of a pool with a few air bubbles for days....This house we're intending a light pale blue.
    Can't wait till we're at your stage of completion...
