Starting to look pretty....

New photos from our bathroom and laundry - had the plumber in recently and things are now all attached and ready to go.





All(!) we have to do now is finish the walls and get the floor laid.

Yay!

Man at work


Laundry with new hot water cylinder and tub. We are really praying that the washing machine is going to fit between them.... Craig reckons no probs, me however......

New Shower fittings - all very silver and shiny



My fav part, the new vanity. Pushed really hard for it and reckon it was worth all the money!




Now all we have to do is find the time to do the rest of the work.........

I want a Bathroom!

While I was away in Japan, Craig ripped out our bathroom. This was to plan, so it was ok. What didn't quite go to plan was the fact the the plumber couldn't come when arranged and had to come a week late! So we now have an open space and NO BATHROOM.
So here are some photos to show you what I came home to after travelling for 22hrs from Japan to home........ (Japan photos will follow soon.....)


Here is my bathroom




My toilet




Looking from the bathroom, through the toilet, into the laundry




Here is the boy hard at work....




and again, putting gib up on the walls of the toilet




Bathroom with batts and one wall. The bath is just sitting there to look pretty.....




and finally the bathroom ceiling...




Of course, everything that used to be in the bathroom, toilet and laundry has to go somewhere - so here is my spare room!
