Although what is the colouring in the breeze blocks under the hardie board? Looks like rust, but I know it can't be. Is it dirt? Re: okjorg's build 1572Mar 31, 2013 8:51 pm I am not sure what it is kiwi... I thought it was from the yellow-tongue being in the rain... but I will have to ask the builder!!! It IS such a peaceful and relaxing place bradster!!! I just love being out there!!

I love the way that your builder is giving you plenty of shelves in those wardrobes. Did you request these or did the builder include them as standard? Did someone say "too much storage"? HAHAHAHA! Re: okjorg's build 1578Apr 05, 2013 10:56 pm Jodge - I'm so glad you like it!!!!!! Everything is exactly as I asked for...... so if it doesn't work.... it is on my head and no one else's!!!!!! I did a lot of sketching in my trusty notebook and came up with a whole lot of options... and then the builder and I nutted it out together!! I was a bit worried I had made the pantry a little crowded with all those shelves... but I guess I won't be break dancing in there will I!!!???? I'll save that for the DECK!!!!!

Congratulations okjorg,(and H1'ers) definetely a house to be so proud of Re: okjorg's build 1580Apr 06, 2013 12:15 pm Can never have too much storage. I get same comments bout our new place cause I have so many cupboards, overheads & drawers everywhere. Looks great!! Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense.
