We adore it! We thought there's no way we would win it at auction, but somehow the planets aligned, and we did. I often just sigh and think "gosh i love this house". Warts and all, it's awesome! Re: Built-in robes 11Apr 10, 2011 7:03 pm You know, after you posted this last night, i looked at our linen cupboard and realised it's very similar. It is a similar colour and style to the first pic you posted (but no pattern) and has chicken wire down the bottom where the return air is for our ducted heating!! I think you're spot on!! I'm really not completely up with what is "correct" for decorating a Californian Bungalow properly, so i might have to contact you for an email consult one of these days!! Re: Built-in robes 12Apr 11, 2011 11:01 am I like the fireplace, particularly because the timber fireplace still has a plaster border of wall around it so I dont think it would detract too much. I have a bunch of photos of examples of this but im not sure how to post pics sorry! Re: Built-in robes 13Apr 11, 2011 3:37 pm I'd really love to see them if you can manage it!! I don't think this forum allows uploading, so you'll need to upload the photos to somewhere like http://www.photobucket.com and copy the links across, posting them in self::bbcode_second_pass_code_cb tags (there's a button for this above the posting box in the full editor). Re: Built-in robes 14Jul 20, 2014 4:56 pm We have just started looking at getting built in robes and I was attracted to this post because your photo looks very similar to our room. We also have a lot of dark wood features (window shutters, thick skirting boards and ornate heritage fireplace), lighter timber floorboards and white walls. I want to keep the room as light as possible and so am hesitant to get dark wood robes, but worry that white robes will not look appropriate. Given your post was some time ago now, I would love to see a photo of what you eventually ended up with. Are you able to share the finished look? Thank you!

We had a building inspection initially and they reported some… 0 12743 Strong enough for what? For linen, absolutely. To climb on, no. I've got similar shelving in my garage and it holds a decent amount of weight. 900 wide shelves will carry… 1 4193 Probably a not bad thing to mention particle board should in case anyone else reading this got the two confused. 6 4895 |
