Cottage update

Nat here.  As well as putting the final touches on the internal painting, we also tackled the external decking on the weekend.  You'll remember this was the before....

This is with some undercoat...

And this is the finished product!

We're quite happy with the results... although of course it will be better when the paint colour of the house matches!

Here's a little before and after of the entrance way....

Doesn't this faux pannelling look great below? Just like real vjay's!  This is the entrance wall to the new 3rd bedroom...

The question we have now is what to do with the unpainted lattice on the deck?  I'm thinking of hanging herbs...something like this...

What do you think?

In other cottage news, we've decided that because we're putting in a new bathroom and a new 3rd bedroom the only room that hasn't been touched is the kitchen.  We're putting in an IKEA kitchen, this is our visual..

What do you think? We have a fab builder who is happy to put it in for us.  It's surprisingly inexpensive...really surprising!

Hope you're enjoying our updates!
