We were lucky we loved the colours in the display home and just tweaked things a little bit. The lady at Laminex did our heads in with everything she showed us way over the top and when we went to do the kitchen selection we found out it was going to cost $$$$'000 so we stuck with what we originally fell in love with at the display home. There are 2 wild orchids being built in the estate nearby and another McLaren so it's interesting watching them all come together. If you loved the kitchen in the display when you first saw it then don't doubt yourself! At least you can have a look at some of the other Dechellis threads on here which will help (or not!). Good luck with all your choices and look forward to following your thread!!

We have just finsihed building with Dechellis. We started out with the Wild Orchid design and then completely changed things around! Have a look at my thread as I have the french nougat benchtops in the kitchen with dark licorice linea cupboards. We have alot of natural light in our back area and it certainly isnt too dark. Are you getting pot draws or cupbaords down the bottom of your kitchen? Highly recommend po draws at around 800mm wide. We have the chocolate tiles on the bathroom floors and lighter wall tiles. We have the bath which sits off of the wall abit like the photo you have posted and I dont recall them charging anything extra for that. I like your pantry running along the back of your kitchen! We have something similar but it opens up onto the hallwayy. Anyway, I agree that the whole selection process can be quite daunting but it looks great once it is all in. Have a look at our design and our colours and i think it may help you as it is quite similar! ------------------------------------------------------ Handover: 14 December 2010 Current: Putting in plants!

The pot drawers are $106 each and when I spoke to John last week he confirmed that they are 800mm wide. We are also having provision for a microwave with a pot drawer underneath for $217 so it all seems pretty reasonable. If you make any changes, ask them to send you a drawing of the layout otherwise you won't see anything and you won't see that until shortly before it is made and installed. Good luck!

So I'm just reading up on this ecosystem of lights. I'm planning on putting deck lights along the outside edge of a large deck. Will need about 3 packs (18 lights) plus… 0 23025 |
