Rocking along!

I went past the house today on my way to pick up the little man from daycare and the gyprockers were hard at work doing the joins - it appeared as though downstairs was mostly done and they moved upstairs as I poked my head in and said hello.

The change from a frame to real walls is amazing - its really taking shape now and starting to feel and look like somewhere we might actually live soon!

I took a few quick snaps then got out of the way.

From Outdoor Room into Family/Kitchen (thats the Tasmanian Oak panelling they removed from the Outdoor Room ceiling haphazardly stacked outside now..)




Dining Room in foreground and Kitchen will be in that recess on the back wall

Looking back toward front door - living room through the cut out on the left. Fridge cavity on the right.




From Dining Room looking into Living and beyond into hallway




From outside into Family Room.



Love love love seeing progress! Wonder what next week holds??

We haven't heard from our SS properly this week so look forward to seeing/hearing what is in store in the coming week.

Hope you all have a safe weekend.

  3. HI Ladies!

    Thanks Reinsey, I love our bricks too :)

    Thanks Rachael, I am expecting cornices very soon as they are there ready to go! We asked about stairs and our SS told Jason something about most trades not being back until the week after the one coming so who knows? Originally, when the gyprock was supposed to be done over the Xmas-New Year week our SS said he was trying to book a carpenter for this week so hopefully he has secured one for next!

    Its getting exciting again!
