Honey, I'm home

Hi all,

I'm back! It's been a busy few weeks packing/moving/unpacking,

but I feel like I'm getting to the end of it now!

I can't park my car in the garage yet and there are a few things left to finish off but,

It is SO good to be here!!

The kids LOVE the new house and "never, ever want to move"

I'm waiting on my Bocci lights for above the kitchen bench

and I'm yet to choose a coffee machine

(& as you can see, there's also a cupboard door missing)

This area is big enough for 2 stools

The new stools are great (super comfy too)

I have the white backing curtain closed today as the westerlies 

are here and it's FREEZING outside!

 The wall above the bar/sideboard will be getting a mirror on it very soon

I was so excited to put our 'things' on the shelves!

That 'thing' on the bench is not a dead cat,

ok, ok.. it's just a dead racoon....

it's a Daniel Boon hat that our friend brought back from America for us.

It's the 'house cat.. I mean hat'

If you come over for a glass of something, you will be required 

to pose for a picture wearing it for our visitors book.

We love our floors

 Do you think our front door handle is big enough?

 The study.. looking very bare (for now)

The downstairs powder room is nice and dark

and needs a sexy mirror

and a shower screen

 This is the entry cupboard,

so no more kid's school bags in the pantry

or shoes piled up at the front door!

I have to say that I absolutely adore our ensuite!

It's possibly my favourite room in the house.

It has a heating/a/c duct, speakers (sonos) and a heated towel rack

and I am high-fiving myself for my tile/cabinetry/colour selection.

The bathtub hasn't been plumbed yet. 

It took 5 men to move it into the bathroom yesterday (I couldn't watch!)

 The kid's bathroom looks great too. 

There's still some finishing to do in there yet

This is all I can show you of the walk-in-robe

the rest of it is a MESS!

I love the bookshelf in our bedroom

(and the cupboards underneath are empty!!)

Too much storage? I don't think so :)

 There'll be more pics to come as I decorate. 

I'd love some ideas from all of you creative interior designers out there!

I'll post more pics of the outside soon too

...don't be fooled by the clear blue sky,

the wind is HOWLING out there!

Stay Warm.
