Thanks girls

It's been a long, long, long time coming [ img ].........years of DIY furniture, hand-me-down furniture, kid-damaged furniture , ......but honestly, I wouldn't have changed anything ( well almost) ............atleast I adore everything I have now & I know how hard it was to get

Know that feeling!

[ img ] [ img ] [ img ] this room is sooooo gorgeous Everything is so perfect ... looove the new you know what , adore the new bowl , love the sofa, your wall colour is soooo elegant (what is it, again ?), the table, the colours (all of them), just beautiful and stunning - one of my best ever houses definitely.

Thank you very much Lex . I honestly didn't think it was that good , after having seen some of the amazing rooms on the forum. But I'm happy it's come together so well.

The colour is Taubmans Moonriver. I first saw it in another member's home (Phoenix ?) ages ago & thought how well it went with different decor. I also loved how subdued the shade was, so VOILA! Here it is in the 'flesh'.
I believe themax used it & bel will be using it too.

Of course it's Moonriver ... it tricked me - in that photo it looks lots lighter It's one of the best colours ...

The last of our lights went up today - woo hoo .......ALL DONE NOW!!!

They look great but we're going to need time to get used to the light effect, as the light shines so much lower now.

This pic shows the fitting a little clearer. It really is very pretty.

Those kitchen pendants have quite a delicate industrial look to them! I like!

Fantastic looking lights Southies, but oh, my.....

.....you've run out of room on the fridge door for notes so you've progressed to the pantry!

ours is a working kitchen Eager & that note on the pantry door is a job schedule for my 11-year old DS & my 7-year old GrandS. Bugger the look of the kitchen........I'd rather the work got done

When DW and I recently went away - and it was only for 4 nights - we still wrote out a list of instructions for our kidults still at home - aged 21 and 18.

Just caught up again - WOW! What amazing progress!!

Love that formal lounge - you are giving me great ideas for my own now

Thanks for all the birthday wishes too guys xx

Wow, I didn't notice the lights update!! I love those pendants, and I mean exactly those pendants!!

Thank you Lex. I love the look.
Still getting used to the brightness though, now that they are down low & not on the ceiling

LUVVV those kitchen lights - exactly the look I was after....

Happy Birthday and congratulations on a lovely lovely home...

Thank you mpcj

Just wondering how I'm going to find the cleaning, as the double glass layers can't be separated Well, I kind of knew that when I saw them but thought - what the heck . Will cross that bridge when I come ot it
You can't be practical ALL of the time

They are fabulous. You need one of those spinning cleaning things that get into tight places, the fluro green fluffy things. I have one but the kids play with it more than I use it or a cloth around a stay stick? that might work.

They are really lovely lights Southies. I like them a lot. They look fabulous in that kitchen and all is done now hey?
We have a Looooooooooooooooong way to go to get to that point. Ýou have done a really fabulous job. I didn't realise you used Moonriver also. Isn't it lovely? So gentle...

Yep TM thought of that, but I'm thinking I'll just remove them & soak them in warm water ....on a regular basis,so that they don't get too dirty - if I can get my act together

Oh yeah, lights are ALL done [ img ] A big clap to DH & FIL .

It's such a soothing colour isn't it TM.........and so versatile. Just love it!! No regrets whatsoever

Oh all that Moonriver talk just gets me too excited!

Love the pendants Southies

Love your kitchen lights Southies! And which brand of paint is moonriver??? Currently looking at colours for internal walls...
