Goodness knows what we are going to do with the front door as we'll have to paint it. I'm very tempted to go a radical colour... but how radical can I be! Already there are quite a few timber 'colours' involved with Merbau decking, timber supports, pine lining, Elm flooring... and then the colour scheme we're going for is the same one as at home. It's a Taubman's colour scheme but we won't be getting it in Taubman's paint as it was the worst paint we've used thus far! I think it's back to Bristol or Wattle or Dulux for us.
The front door whilst it is unpainted is a very
unappealing green colour. (I was trying to get awa
y from the photo but Batman had other ideas!)
The interior is looking great with all the plasterboard and the place looks a bit bigger now than it did before. I don't know how that optical illusion works with space and finishing a house. Still not a large house and the ceilings are very low... good thing that we're pretty short people :).
The bathroom is looking fabulous! I'm glad we went and got the 'special' feature tiles as I think it makes the difference. The larger tiles also look good. I can't wait to see what it looks like with the floor tiles which are a milk coffee sort of colour.
The loft floor is almost finished! I suspect we should be able to paint / oil from top down as there isn't much work for this part left... probably just the light fittings.
The main thing to go in is the kitchen which I'll have to chase up. Thank goodness we now have the means to get the kitchen up to Howes Valley. In it's first test run it did pretty good with Batman and me sharing the passenger seat! I am not sure if he'll be a good "ute" dog!
