The colour we chose is 'white canvas' and it is looking very cream to us. The clear gloss has gone on the timber doors and these have come up awesome. We wish all our doors were like this now.<br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TMaSTwn-MmI/AAAAAAAAANI/jubyo-2Nc6E/s1600/IMG_2923.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TMaSTwn-MmI/AAAAAAAAANI/jubyo-2Nc6E/s320/IMG_2923.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5532270060438958690" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TMaScsyqyzI/AAAAAAAAANQ/20ToplbSkgA/s1600/IMG_2924.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TMaScsyqyzI/AAAAAAAAANQ/20ToplbSkgA/s320/IMG_2924.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5532270214028905266" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TMaSnEX_rMI/AAAAAAAAANY/5BmAsNgYTSU/s1600/IMG_2920.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TMaSnEX_rMI/AAAAAAAAANY/5BmAsNgYTSU/s320/IMG_2920.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5532270392158170306" /></a><br /><br />Our vanity tops have also been installed in both the ensuite and bathroom.

The kitchen is looking a little bland so we are hoping that once the splash back goes in this will liven up the kitchen. <br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TMaTiSdcI0I/AAAAAAAAANw/3C_nQotF9EI/s1600/IMG_2916.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TMaTiSdcI0I/AAAAAAAAANw/3C_nQotF9EI/s320/IMG_2916.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5532271409551385410" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TMaTthrD7mI/AAAAAAAAAN4/XXXQ9ntZtn4/s1600/IMG_2918.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TMaTthrD7mI/AAAAAAAAAN4/XXXQ9ntZtn4/s320/IMG_2918.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5532271602613612130" /></a>Peter and Dawnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16952375205217760299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707468524729610182.post-85554047753837100812010-10-17T19:59:00.001+11:002010-10-18T20:08:34.261+11:00Kitchen Cupboards installedThe kitchen cupboards have been installed and what looked like a reasonable size kitchen is locking rather small now.

Our upgraded timber doors for the main bedroom and study are quite tall and once stained should really look good. <br /><br />The waterproofing (black stuff) has been completed in the wet areas. The niche in the bathroom shower has now been installed. Hopefully next week they can start on the kitchen and tiling in the bathrooms. <br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1apq_20oI/AAAAAAAAAG4/EtodM7ugXEE/s1600/IMG_2715.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1apq_20oI/AAAAAAAAAG4/EtodM7ugXEE/s320/IMG_2715.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525171989816726146" /></a><br />Waterproofing in the Ensuite Shower<br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1a3AvWVyI/AAAAAAAAAHA/VEy5WDATEmY/s1600/IMG_2717.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1a3AvWVyI/AAAAAAAAAHA/VEy5WDATEmY/s320/IMG_2717.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525172218991367970" /></a><br />Bathtub (Is it me or is that one small bath tub...)<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1bR2RthZI/AAAAAAAAAHI/d8hElN14W5A/s1600/IMG_2725.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1bR2RthZI/AAAAAAAAAHI/d8hElN14W5A/s320/IMG_2725.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525172680039171474" /></a><br />Leisure Room<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1bj-okLHI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/ymKrYoVfneU/s1600/IMG_2731.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1bj-okLHI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/ymKrYoVfneU/s320/IMG_2731.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525172991520156786" /></a><br />Kitchen<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1b11EZq5I/AAAAAAAAAHY/gxlGeHhMzoQ/s1600/IMG_2735.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1b11EZq5I/AAAAAAAAAHY/gxlGeHhMzoQ/s320/IMG_2735.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525173298190199698" /></a><br />Study DoorPeter and Dawnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16952375205217760299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707468524729610182.post-47826575233696772312010-10-02T10:29:00.003+10:002010-10-02T10:32:16.959+10:00The Blog is resurrected!The Blog is back...After months of neglect we have decided to come back and join fellow blogger's with regular updates.Peter and Dawnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16952375205217760299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707468524729610182.post-7407035944491263552010-10-02T10:21:00.006+10:002010-10-02T10:28:50.606+10:00At Lock Up StageAfter work went to the house and found it all locked up.

The niches, raked ceiling and bulkheads really add that extra dimension to the house. <br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKZ_jAEN_zI/AAAAAAAAADA/iElvbzzAglA/s1600/IMG_2693.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKZ_jAEN_zI/AAAAAAAAADA/iElvbzzAglA/s320/IMG_2693.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523242232306335538" /></a><br />Hallway<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKZ_uLz3WVI/AAAAAAAAADI/bwISv69a2Uw/s1600/IMG_2682.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKZ_uLz3WVI/AAAAAAAAADI/bwISv69a2Uw/s320/IMG_2682.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523242424437528914" /></a><br />Bedroom<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKaABmpAQPI/AAAAAAAAADQ/bpCpNGhtmho/s1600/IMG_2655.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKaABmpAQPI/AAAAAAAAADQ/bpCpNGhtmho/s320/IMG_2655.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523242758057246962" /></a><br />Bathroom<br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKaAb5ZqMiI/AAAAAAAAADY/aN7uQ0OVGCk/s1600/IMG_2650.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKaAb5ZqMiI/AAAAAAAAADY/aN7uQ0OVGCk/s320/IMG_2650.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523243209769759266" /></a><br />KitchenPeter and Dawnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16952375205217760299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707468524729610182.post-79511148727067275602010-09-22T10:47:00.007+10:002010-10-02T11:00:34.637+10:00Insulation is inWent to the house to check on the progress and in particular to see whether the carpenter's have been back to complete the outstanding framing works.

I thought the bricks finish just above the window, not 100mm above leaving a gap?<br /><br />The brick layers look to be doing a good job, but there attention to detail with regards to the flashing (water proofing) is a little dodgy. My father has over 20 years experience as a brick layer and he has pointed out a few dody practices which I have passed on to the SS. <br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKaWDSKB03I/AAAAAAAAAGI/7YZ-uHgzlH4/s1600/IMG_2464.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKaWDSKB03I/AAAAAAAAAGI/7YZ-uHgzlH4/s320/IMG_2464.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523266976174166898" /></a> <br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKaWXdaa87I/AAAAAAAAAGY/yOFXkczgQ5w/s1600/IMG_2472.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKaWXdaa87I/AAAAAAAAAGY/yOFXkczgQ5w/s320/IMG_2472.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523267322793096114" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKaWikmtX2I/AAAAAAAAAGg/Q2CT0GS8JAM/s1600/IMG_2473.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TKaWikmtX2I/AAAAAAAAAGg/Q2CT0GS8JAM/s320/IMG_2473.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523267513702244194" /></a>Peter and Dawnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16952375205217760299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707468524729610182.post-80814471928513658282010-08-28T12:01:00.005+10:002010-10-02T12:08:03.653+10:00Bricks UnderwayBricks are under way.

A good watering in and hopefully the tree will survive. <br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1j8UgEHbI/AAAAAAAAAIA/_2XgHkahU-s/s1600/IMG_2181.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1j8UgEHbI/AAAAAAAAAIA/_2XgHkahU-s/s320/IMG_2181.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525182205799964082" /></a>Peter and Dawnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16952375205217760299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707468524729610182.post-66121228549453847362010-07-18T16:10:00.008+10:002010-10-07T17:25:58.454+11:00Roof Tiles and Internal PlumbingThe Roof tilers have started on the roof. It will be good to get the roof on to help keep the timber frame dry. <br /><br />Also we noticed all the internal plumbing in the house has also been done. I didn't realise that these days all the pipes are made from plastic rather than the traditional copper pipes. I guess this is to save money as plastic would be substantially cheaper that copper. <br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_38y-k0KOysI/TK1l7jglJ9I/AAAAAAAAAII/IbvsG0Arxhk/s1600/IMG_2182.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer;
