We picked up three different sample pots of paint today and some pieces of white card which I'm going to paint so we can move them around the house to look at the colours in different lights once we get the keys so we can decide on a colour straight away. Mr Doe finally got around to ordering the handles for the kitchen yesterday so luckily they only take 4-5 business days to arrive!

This is the original photo of it from Gumtree: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ The photo above was while I was sanding it then this is what it looked like tonight with the first coat of paint on it: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ I've got to do another 1-2 coats of paint then I'll oil the top to give it a bit of colour and bring out the timber grain and highlight the parquetry pattern then wax it all over to protect it. I've ordered a couple of extra cup pull handles which we're using for the kitchen to replace the handles on the coffee table drawers. I've just got to find some nice paper to line the bottom of the drawers which I've left unpainted.

Thanks Dani, happy with how it's looking so far ![]() We had our final inspection today and the house is looking great, they've sorted out everything we picked up at PCI. The bank called about 15 minutes after we'd left the house and asked for a copy of the building insurance Certificate of Currency so that they could organise the final installment payment which Mr Doe sent through to them once he got in to work (he's an insurance broker so he'd already set the cover up last week ready to go which made it simple to organise quickly). Hopefully they make payment quickly now because I am literally itching to get in now I've seen what it looks like!

If it’s a new build it’s likely not an issue either but always call council to confirm. They’re usually very helpful. 3 25702 |
