Finally, the laundry saga is finished. Had the correct 100mm chrome waste placed at the washing machine location and tiling complete around it.
Plus we also got a few carpet samples from our local carpet place - we asked for samples in greys, but one or two turned out a bit brown. And of course the photo doesn't represent anything like that the colours are in real life too. I'd like a darker grey, but Tina thinks it'd make the smaller bedrooms look even smaller... so no choice made yet. Went to a few other carpet places today too, but they seem to have 800 choices of brown/cream/tan/beige etc etc, and very few modern grey neutral colours. Back to the drawing board for this week.

Hey Tina and Tim. We are starting our Nelson 43 with Metricon today! We too have started a blog, not as detailed but hope to document the process. http://kimandpeadarnelson43.blogspot.com/ Thanks for all the great tips and enjoy your last few months of building.

Hi T&T - the bricks look fantastic! What colour are they? Sorry, I know you've probably written it somewhere! We had the same problem with our render, it always looks darker on the card. We ended up paying a painter to come and paint over it, only cost about $300, we went with a much darker purple, I can give you the name of the colour if you like?
ReplyDeleteHi Sarah, we used Austral Hawthorn bricks. As for the render colour, it's starting to grow on us, it doesn't always looks radioactive purple :)
