That's a great transformation Tsu, shows how the same units can look very different!

[Kenickie]

Thanks Rhod.

That looks great Tsu.

[Rosa]

I love those, Rhod! You've done a great job with your kitchen, Tsu.

[Tsu]

Thanks all.

I've just had a phone call from our flooring people. They're closing as of today so we will have to move in onto concrete floors :(

At least we have the fridge freezer and washing machine being delivered tomorrow.

Hurrah for the kitchen and the fridge and freezer, Tsu. Maybe you can get a few cheap rugs and runners for now?

[Leap]

Be prepared for a lot of dust, Tsu, if it’s anything like our place was - we moved in on Friday but couldn’t get flooring sorted until the Monday. I’m not sure dust is the word but there was a powdery film on all the concrete and my niece ran back and forth in the living room leaving dusty handprints on the walls It was cute but grimy. C didn’t build the bed until the flooring was in so we put a sheet down on the floor before putting the mattress down to keep it clean.

Rhod, I love your picture wall

OMG I wanted to order some bar stools for the kitchen island but the ones I wanted have a 9 week lead time on pretty much every website and well who knows if online stores and deliveries will be going them. So I idly looked on eBay and found exactly what I wanted, second hand and free delivery! They look in pretty good condition too but I can easily clean them up if they have a few knocks and marks

Serendipity!

[Heebie Jeebie]

That looks fantastic Tsu.

And good work Emma! Much better to get second hand if possible too.

They arrived today - I hadn’t chased the seller and thought they’d turn up whenever he could do it and wasn’t expecting them but obviously was in

Lovely! Sitting at an island is the best.

[Rosa]

Those are perfect!

[Pippedydeadeye]

Gotta love a bum groove. Like the stools in science lessons at school.

[FiveO'Clock]

The stools are great! Liv is SO cute

[Ella77]

Very nice!

[Tsu]

Love the stools.

[Rosa]

We put our coat rack up, just inside the front door, weeks after I bought it (as I had been planning to get the builders to do it). It's not fallen down yet!

[emma_p]

I love those hang it alls!

Liv and George have insisted on eating all meals at the island. Socially distanced children in our own house

[Marth]

Have you found a place for your metropolitan line hat rack?

[emma_p]

It’s still at my parents house. They were going to bring it and stay with us this Easter. One day I’ll get it on a wall - I think I bought it in about 2013
