Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Dec 14, 2008 2:47 am Hi Everyone,
it's been ages since i posted and i have a good excuse, we moved in! although i thought i should get a wriggle on and post given our first baby is due in about 5 days!! We moved in 4 weeks ago. The only outstanding things are curtains (ordered but closed over xmas so won't be in until mid january - lucky babies can't see that far at birth so won't notice garbage bags on windows) and the concreting around the house and at the front isn't done. full details on the blogsite www.tandtheoz.blogspot.com rather than me uploading them again but here are a few tasters! enjoy Helen Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Maylands Manor all done (well mostly!) 3Dec 14, 2008 8:18 am hey congrats on moving in and getting so organised already.

I am not sure what the name of the splashback is. The guy bought around 8000 samples and we had narrowed it down to red which left us about 600 different shades to choose from . I actually think we chose it from a range of car paint colours (ie; he had swatches from porsche and BMW etc!!). We added the sparkle to it to give it a bit extra (like DeeElle's black splashback) which looks different depending on the light that is reflecting. Will post some pics when the curtains and concrete (charcoal) are down in the next few weeks. cheers, Helen It's possible but a soak well is usually much larger.
