My DD4 decorates my lounge room just like the last photo then sits down to watch tv ... if I go in to clean up she insists that she was playing with them Haha, that sounds like my DS! Suuuuuure, you were playing with them.. ring09 Fantastic entry cooped, love the light fittings, really finishes it off perfectly. Thanks Ring bobbaloochi Those lights look awesome Tam! We want to get similar ones but smaller and slightly different shape for our kitchen. It's just a matter of actually getting them and then getting them put in! Yours are perfect for your entrance I reckon. Looks really good. As of yesterday, we have grass! And plants in the yard!! YAY! Front not done yet but will be done probably next week or the week after. Will definitely have you guys over when the weather gets warmer. Hope all is well with you all x YAY YAY... grass & plants. It makes so much of a difference doesn't it? Can't wait to see!

YEP.... I am thinking it is for the people that have knocked out the extra bit of concrete on the crossover... I was right. I went in and seen the senior compliance officer this morning to clarify what was going on as we need to put in our second driveway. For everyone who has knocked out the crossover will need to rip up what they've put down and redo it to include the crossover to the right specifications, due to the footpaths that will be laid. I am feeling sorry for the people who have done their driveways with cement, ouch! Our Preston @ the 'Coast' - Decorating!! 1511Aug 14, 2011 10:44 am We're in today's paper...

Honestly, it was good. There were hiccups along the way but now that we are looking back on it all it was really good. We still have some maintenance issues but they are getting worked out. Being south you'd have the same supervisor as what we had & he was great. Are you going to have a tiled roof or colorbond? Are you changing the floor plan at all?
