So nice. You have finished that house so beautifully. Can’t wait to be in our new house. Would be so surreal having a home like this

Thank you

We hope what we picked comes together well. We think it will but you just never know.
Can’t wait for sheeting to look at each room instead of seeing through framing.
Hebel was completed yesterday and the guys are rendering today. Nothing internal yet. I think all external will be done by early to mid September. Then all internal should be full steam ahead. Check out my thread if you like. I posted a few pics the other day.
As for the build. I’m happy with the attention to detail, workmanship is great, it’s just that it’s all happening at snail pace. I mean when trades are there, they are productive. It’s when they are not and it’s a lot. But can’t complain it will get there

Glad to see your happy wit the build. We had the snail pace right at the end. I hate that I get what your saying. Ours was more due to the suppliers holding up up.

I will go check it out. Just got to pick kids up from school first. Where are you building?


And don’t worry about second guessing what you picked. It happens to everyone.

Ahh na don’t worry about that. Did you work it out?




viewtopic.php?t=86597
I have Warwick curtains samples that the lovely consultant left with me. Have a look. I’m thinking of sheer linen but not sure yet. As I originally choose sheer silk. Which one would be better? I only have the silk samples. As I didn’t think I wanted the linen. But now I think I’m changing my mind.








And instead of having the plastic white and the back of the blockout curtain. It’s going to have this material





3 of the colours together



There’s blockout blinds too. What do you guys think of the colours?


I’m also getting block out blinds. And window shutters. In all the toilets and bathrooms. Blockouts are rating 10. So it’s great quality. Plus any dirt that gets on it slides off.





viewtopic.php?t=86597
Hey Doulton if you don’t mind me asking how much are you expecting for your curtains (just the sheets and block outs not the shutters) to cost?


Who's the blind company if I can ask? We went to the home show yesterday, but I reckon most of them are snake oil salesmen if they need to be there

I got the quote back already. It’s $23,000 for the curtains and block out curtains is only in some of the areas. There was cheaper options she gave me. But I wanted quality. And it’s Warwick brand which is a quality brand. At that’s also at a discounted price. I’m also thinking of going with linen instead. As linen tends to fold better as well.
