Meanwhile, it was the trady that had the affair with Betty's twin who was seeing the hubby and got uprooted. Now the trady wants to finish the house quickly so he can rendevous with Betty's twin who is a bit upset because she has been 'planted' in a foreign land.

It looks fantastic. I like your hole in the wall - are you going to put plantation shutters in there? I've seen that done in a few PD displays. Those border things are called cornices Re: Newbies toy home - Betty update :) 78Oct 22, 2008 8:39 pm Newbies, fiance sounds just divine... I might borrow him sometime!
Betty just needs your love. She'll be fine. You have the bedroom storage anyway! Jo I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself.

I like your hole in the wall - are you going to put plantation shutters in there? I've seen that done in a few PD displays. Those border things are called cornices hehehe cornices...i knew it was something like that...*blonde moment* yea, we saw our display home with the hole in the wall, and it cost us $200 to put it there!! 200 for a HOLE in the wall..hehehe...but i love it...it opens up the house a lot more...yep, am trying to convince finace to put plantations all over the house...to match the hole in the wall! hahahaha hehe jo, we do have lots of other rooms that we can use as storage for now...and maybe eventually we'll put in a shed for Betty's stuff (like fertilizer and stuff like that..hehe) If nerd, clean freak, perfectionst and gets angry when u stream gossip girls on the internet and get a big big virus on ur lap to;, sounds like the perfect guy for you...ur welcome to borrow...but i said borrow!...hehehehe ohh poor fiance, i really do love him! hehehe Re: Newbies toy home - Betty update :) 80Oct 22, 2008 9:31 pm Better warn you, newbies, plantations are expensive!!! Just had my blinds quote done today (with some extra plantations added!!! ) Plus, they have a much longer lead time than blinds!!! Your place is progressing beautifully! Solidarity, not solidity.......The Lexicon of Life We already paid for somfy motors for the blinds.
