As l said before progress on the house has been slow, well it sure feels that way anyway but we are getting there!! BIL has got his a** into gear (finally!!) and is making slow but steady progress on the electrical work. We are still waiting on some lights to come in on order so that’s held him up a bit, but there seems to be a fair bit left to do.
Anyhoo here’s some pics of what we do have:
Most Powerpoints have been done…these are the Clipsal Saturns (white). We put these in the kitchen (splashback, island bench (yet to be done), ensuite and bathroom:

Rest of the house has these slimline ones in the Desert Sand colour:

All our light switches are in the Clipsal Saturns as well (except the garage). I just love the look of these. This pic is of the Entry light switch:

Kitchen pendants are in and downlights done…yay!. The pendants still need some adjusting we are awaiting the correct light globes to turn up. But l’m happy how these have turned out. As you can see by the pic Air-Con vents are in too.

Concretors have delivered the reo, sand and other stuff today, so perhaps later today or tomorrow boxing up may start.
The biggest thing that has happened though is that our Carpets started getting laid yesterday I am so rapt and unbelievably relieved with the colour as I had forgotten what l picked!!, lol. I can’t get over how soft and plush underfoot it is, it’s just divine! I took a couple of pics but have decided to wait until it’s all finished, which will be sometime today
