Re: Finally starting my own thread..! 32May 20, 2015 10:32 am Love the floorboards! Are they solid or engineered? Finally starting my own thread..! 33May 22, 2015 12:29 am Ceilings happened today!!!! Cornices have been delivered and are sitting in the living room so hopefully will be installed tomorrow!! Fingers crossed! Also we got our downlight plan done today and omg I'm so exited!! We ended up going with the brightgreen D900's throughout and brightgreen D700's in the minor bedrooms can't wait to see them installed. I've heard good things about brightgreen downlights and they have really good specs!

Finally starting my own thread..! 39May 23, 2015 12:51 am marmot Congratulations on the build. We are in a similar situation, same age no kids fist time builders and went overboard on upgrades.
