I read an article saying white kitchens were out this year, but I still love 'em! I love white kitchens too! I don't really care what's 'in', that will change! I just picked things that I like Re: First build in SE Melbourne 51Sep 02, 2017 10:47 pm Mrs_W Eeek! Cabinets!!!! You build is flying along. Doesn't seem that way to me but thanks haha! Hopefully it speeds up from here on! Re: First build in SE Melbourne 52Sep 02, 2017 10:52 pm They fixed my broken window so I couldn't get in there today, but luckily the garage door wasn't quite snibbed shut properly! I have my stone. I'm not sure about it, it's not quite the colour I thought it was. It seems more Brown in person, which may not work with my charcoal tiles. Praying it looks ok all together 🤞 They've started taping everything up for painting and they've sanded all of the cornices and trim. Also taken off all doors and things ready to paint.

I actually really like it, it's just different to what I thought! Re: First build in SE Melbourne 55Sep 03, 2017 3:22 pm What was the name of the stone? Give it a chance. Colours seem to look different depending on lighting and the surrounding colours. Once everything is it hopefully it will all go together well. Re: First build in SE Melbourne 56Sep 03, 2017 3:36 pm I quite like your stone mine is a similar stone in white (with black cabinets)- I do wish my builder offered a stone that had the swirly bits in it rather than dots (if you know what I mean- kind of like clouds rather than pebbles?! Haha) but it wasn't an option for me, I do like yours though Re: First build in SE Melbourne 57Sep 03, 2017 5:19 pm Bri1234 What was the name of the stone? Give it a chance.

It looks much browner in the bathrooms to the kitchen. Fingers crossed it works out! Re: First build in SE Melbourne 58Sep 08, 2017 11:12 am I've been given a settlement date today... 13th October!!
