Cabinetry



Some of our cabinets were installed on Friday. I'm absolutely thrilled with it so far.
I particularly like the handless set of draws in our upstairs retreat.
I'm so pleased the cabinet maker talked me into having gloss classic white.
Just what the box house needed.

Our staircase


Our staircase was installed today. I love how it is so unobtrusive. So very different to anything I've had before. I can now go upstairs and have a good look around.

Hard wood flooring



They started laying the yellow stringybark flooring today. It's a bit more rustic than any floor we have had before but I think it suits "The box house". It's beginning to look like a home.

Taking shape

We have been concentrating on finishing the inside but still a a bit to do on the outside.
We have to decide on a colour for our front door. The blue board will be painted with sticks of wood on it.

At long last, this week we might see some action. The builder will be back after 6 weeks off with pneumonia. The windows are arriving Friday. Weather wise it looks like being about 18degrees and mainly fine. Everything is crossed for some progress being made!
