The el cheapo bed we scored from IKEA. The bed was only $29 but the slats cost us another trip to IKEA and $40 so all up a double bed for $69. We'll be finishing the pine in some colour we have used in the house (probably to match the stairs) but that's a project for another day. We will need to wait till 25th April to actually "install" it according to the Chinese Farmers Almanac.
On the 25th we thought we'd actually put the rest of it together including the $100 double mattress (new!) I bought via ebay. Picked it up in the ute from the city of all places. But it looks soooo comfy esp compared to the mattress pad or even the sofa bed... at least we'll be less dog height!
Whilst waiting for the next thing I could do inside I thought I'd start pulling out some weeds. Managed to get a fair number of them and found all these rocks (ha!) so pulled them out to build a bit of a framework/constraint to work in. This is the shady side but at least has less rocks. Maybe put some herbs in here? Lots of light just no direct sunlight... hmm...
We have blinds! Got them via halfpriceblinds.com.au which stuffed up the delivery... but we finally have them installed. Makes the place look a lot more finished even if there is now a little less light during the day...
Starting to put some nik naks on the shelves. The colourful mugs and crockery looks pretty good!
