Do you mind if I ask you how much you cabnet was? Ours is 2.4 metres long I thing with 8 draws. Also Id love to know where you put things like you Dvd player, etc. DH bought them without thinking about that. 1 is going in our theatre room and the other in our lounge. As much as I LOVE them, I just dont know where Im going to put the xbox, wii, ps3, amp etc.lol And I thought us woman did the compulsive spending.lol. Ooooh and I love that wood carving! Yes they normally sell aroung $600 - $800!!!!! Will def have to go a take a visit to the warehouse and make sure I take my credit card. As for colours.... How did you go? I personally like all drak colour cabnets, lounges etc as they all tie in with one another. Then add colour and texture with textiles such as cusions, throws etc. thats what seems to be in all the display homes. Make sure you posr some pics!lol Forrester 43sq We have our keys (3/6/11) Now it's time to decorate (that's the fun part.lol) https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=37598 DIY, Home Maintenance & Repair to do it properly you need to dig out the garden and waterproof the outside of the wall.
