    my house renovations are almost finished..........lol, well the building work is almost done, we have started painting daughter new bedroom today, should be painting the new kitchen, utility and downstairs loo next week, then should be able to paint the new conservatory/toy room after that, all my new kitchen and appliances will be here on the 14th feb, so I have until then to get everywhere painted


    Can not believe 3 months have gone by so fast, but it will be worth it once its completed

    Its been a long 3 months, still got about 3-4 weeks left of decorating, adding new kitchen and appliances, but its will be worth it, goning to be around 1-2 years to sort the garden out after the builders have ruined it.

    Wow! It's amazing!! You have made me feel better - seeing the demo stage and knowing you made it through! We renovated last year and am on a second round to renovate an in law apartment for my mom - I'm a week in and already falling apart. How will I last two more months? I can see there is a light - so fun to see your photos. Congratulations!

    Oh wow. I'm about to drop dead just from new floors, drywall in one room, and all the painting. I can't imagine if I had demo going on! What a huge change!

    Oh my gosh!!! It looks so awesome! That conservatory is so light and airy!! I love your new kitchen too... the hood above the stove is very cool too. You must be so happy to have your house mostly back in order!
