Canvas look great in the living area, it's tied everything together... Our Preston @ the 'Coast' - Photo Feature Wall! 1485Jul 27, 2011 9:13 am ring09 Hey Cooped, canvas's look great, love it, fills that wall perfectly, and your little miss is gorgeous. I'm really happy with mine and just realised I havent posted a pic, will do that asap. Love your light fittings, cant wait to see them up and well done on the photo wall, it's not as easy as people think to get it right. DH went and bought white versions on the same pendants and put 1 up yesterday.. It's too low and needs some length taken off of it but looks good otherwise.

I am trying to psych myself into doing it but I have to do Miss K's red room first. Well see how that turns out!

In between landscaping and BILLS and hubby having to take a pay cut not much has been happening inside but in another month (or two) we should be back on our feet ... just in time for christmas You should really come to Cairns for the next H1 meet up! Our Preston @ the 'Coast' - Photo Feature Wall! 1492Jul 27, 2011 1:00 pm Landscaping - arghhhh, it never ends, bills too! Hopefully it'll all come together. Our front yard used to be a mountain of dirt, now it's a flat piece dirt. Ha! For the Cairns meet up with have both DD's Birthday & DH's birthday around those dates.

This I am not too sure on though! Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ I think something with height needs to replace the ethanol burner. I'd like to get fresh flowers every week but I think I may have to choose some fake ones instead, cheaper! DS and I have also had a little project going the last few weeks with growing herbs as a jungle for his dinosaurs...

There was a bigger dinosaur in there but DS said it was scared and needed to get out (the others are tough apparently)! DH got all of the pendants up & they look amazing. I had to upload the photos from the camera as the phone pictures don't make them look as good as they really are! Re: Our Preston @ the 'Coast' - Photo Feature Wall! 1496Jul 28, 2011 9:59 am Tam, I think it works - because you don't have the same colour frames on each side it doesn't look contrived. And aren't you gorgeous?? Where did you get your ethanol burner - looks like a great idea!
