The front of the house today. Outdoor lights? Black or not? We have some walls! These are the windows in our bedroom. Alfresco area. Double doors leading into the Games room. Walk-in Pantry. Big sliding doors onto Alfresco. Standing in the Study with a cut-out looking into Family Room so…
A quick catch up
Just a bit of this and that….. Two of my gorgeous friends on a recent night out. Was fun Emma! Flowers from my delicious husband that rocks my world every day. Plumbing for our double vanities. This was the bricking a week ago. Must head up there tomorrow as it’s…
Be my Valentine?
I heart him this much…. Hope you all have a lovely Valentine’s Day! PS. Yes it hurt and I had it done after the birth of our second baby on my lower back (incase you wondering if that is my stomach or back!). Thanks for following my blog and reading it via…
One of those days..
As I sit here pondering the thing I SHOULD do, HAVE to do and WANT to do today, a heaviness is in my heart for what is happening close by. This picture is of the smoke in my background and over our whole town. We don’t live close enough to…
Kids Playroom Pictures

Roof trusses on and HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY!

It’s so hot!
This is how hot it feels here in Wagga Wagga, Australia at the moment. We can’t sleep, everyone is sweaty (not to mention those bum cracks above!), and I feel lethargic. I shouldn’t be complaining, because I really hate cold weather, but I think 38-41C (well over 100F) is a…
The door has been decided
This is it! Paid for. Done. Ordered. And no more changing my mind. I am rapt and almost squealing with delight. My husband is worse I think. How can people get so excited over doors??! These will suit my house style beautifully and will be set under the portico, so…
Door dramas…
Before I show you the doors, I just thought I would show you the cutest House Number I got. Love it. Obviously we will be number 5! This door above is what I must have (in white of course). I have double entry doors and think they would look fabulous.…

I have always had a ‘thing’ for chalkboards
I found this image over at Lind’s blog – Restyled Home. How ridiculously cute is it??!!! I love it. I think that it would create such a fun talking point for visitors to your home. Might pop that in the memory bank of jobs-to-do. Katrina x
