Hombre has started tiling our ensuite last night. Bummer about days getting shorter now as he only can do it after work.

Love it too! Only realised it cos we live in our little shed and our pantry is a bit far from where you cook. The oil, soy sauce, vinegar etc. all end up out where I cook. Then will put them back later to the pantry. We just have to make sure that this oil pull out is a bit deep so that when you open it the contents don't end up falling out of it.

So happy with all the changes! Pics of our bins and laundry hamper.

Love it though! I was telling him about sealing the grout after but he bought this epoxy grout. First time he is to use this so see how we go. This is charred ash which we will use for our timber look tiles and the floor tiles for the bathrooms and laundry. There's no ultra white for the epoxy grout which we will use on our white tiles so for that we will use normal grout and seal it afterwards. Edit: Dear stuff though. Almost $100 for these stuff.

Had to forget about those dear lights that I had initially in mind from Beacon. These are cute, adjustable and match our taps.

Tiling is something I'm not game to try. I've laid floor tiles but didn't enjoy it (the tiling...). Hombre has donned so many hats in our owner build but he actually is a licensed tiler. He just doesn't do it anymore as a trade except on odd occasions. And doing our house of course. He doesn't like it, takes a toll on your knees and wrist. The pay also is not great (putting it nicely) for the work especially doing the wet areas.

Cannot wait for the room to come together. Reg, waiting for the media photos! Owner Builders in boot-shaped Yorke Peninsula : viewtopic.php?f=38&t=80264& OB in SA 597Mar 31, 2017 10:58 pm Berek The Mrs. wants to copy your laundry layout. Very nice. Not digging the tiles though. Must just be the orange Feel free. It's really the bending that is the main thing on my mind. So when we decided to build, I know my laundry will have elevated washer and dryer and was determined to get it. Just happy that the weight is not an issue at all! The orange, is it the waterproof paint? Lol! We actually thought the tiles look orange in the last photos. But not really in person. Anyway, we thought our feature tiles will not appeal to everyone. But we ❤️ it! Owner Builders in boot-shaped Yorke Peninsula : viewtopic.php?f=38&t=80264& Re: OB in SA 598Apr 02, 2017 2:45 pm Tiling of the wet areas continues. We don't know if we would like to put in the wood tiles for the niche. Still deciding if it will look tacky. If the feature wall is on the opposite side of the niche, we wouldn't mind doing it.

Will have white and chrome taps, lights and bathroom accessories. This part of the build is like putting a puzzle together. Can't wait to see our choices all come together. Owner Builders in boot-shaped Yorke Peninsula : viewtopic.php?f=38&t=80264& Re: OB in SA 600Apr 02, 2017 5:42 pm Will try to put some warmth into the open plan area by having timber. Dining room set (we bought this set a while back after we have seen it from The Block). This went on sale on Alisa and Lysandra's online shop then. I don't think they are still selling these stuff nowadays on their website. Last I looked, they only sell paintings and a few other things.
