Plans all drawn waiting on turning the first bit of soil over Cheers Michelle & Dean Love life, Be Happy... Whats stopping you ? Re: Hi from Tassie 2Sep 29, 2013 5:53 pm Congrats! What part of tassie are you in? I have family down there (Kingston). Weather will be a challenge! Tassie is unique as there aren't really any big building companies down there. Are you using a small builder or owner-building?

So wet and boggy on our block sighhh. We are using a building firm this time round previously we have subbed workout and done some ourselves. Will be nice to take a step back and let others organise stuff . We were down Kingston way couple months ago nice part of the state and lovely houses down there. I'm so looking forward to some advice on this forum I'm not so good when it comes to colours.. They look ok in little samples but putting it together is tricky. Thanks for the welcome cheers michelle Love life, Be Happy... Whats stopping you ? Re: Hi from Tassie 4Sep 29, 2013 6:51 pm It's well worth the money / effort to get someone to mock up your facade as a 3d image. Look at my build thread ( link in my sig ) to see the horrible colours I was originally thinking of. The mock ups helped me to get it right ( or at least the way I think it should be ). You can get lots of inspiration from houzz, pinterest, etc. Also google images. Metricon Lookbook is good as well.
