Do you have a floorplan we could see? Thanks! I will post it ASAP! Gable vent went up on the weekend! I was tossing up between circular or hexagonal for ages, but happy with the result.

We have found someone to make us a mantle (photos to come). Wall paneling has begun! I was very skeptical about this, but hoping it will all come together once it has a rail & skirts.

Not a huge fan of having cupboards on this side of the island bench but we really needed the storage, the kitchen is pretty small. More paneling has been done (it will be in the living areas and hallways).

Currently waiting on a quote but I know they will be ridiculously expensive Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ My Owner/Builder weatherboard house thread: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=77475 Re: Weatherboard Reno / Build 15Jun 15, 2015 5:57 pm Love the tiles. Maybe you could use the tiles as a feature mat in the middle of the floor and have plain tiles around the outside? That way you could reduce the cost and wouldn't have to cut into the pattern to lay them. I've seen this done on pinterest and it looks really effective.

That way you could reduce the cost and wouldn't have to cut into the pattern to lay them. I've seen this done on pinterest and it looks really effective. Ill have to look into this - thankyou! The quote was $325 a square meter (just to supply!) so that is definitely out of my price range. Can anybody suggest some suppliers I can look at? I am after some type of patterned floor tile (preferably light colours). Our custom mantle piece has arrived! I can't wait to paint it - it will be gloss white to match the wall paneling. We have ordered a piece of granite for the hearth.

The plastering is complete! We do have quite a few bulk heads (some intentional and some to hide unavoidable beams). Here's an (intentional) one in the Master, and a photo showing the cornice.

So not only did we get a brilliant deal (according to S) on the system, we got a few extra hundred dollars back which we put toward our fridge.

The dotted line that goes through Bed 2 is where the existing house ended.
