They really change the appearence of our bedroom...I can't tell you how good it is to have a shower and know that you are safe from prying eyes.....when having a shower you can see out the study window and you can also see the front door, now the shutters stop the line of sight from the front door, at least we already had blinds up on the study window.
As for the bathroom shutters...I wanted sliding ones, so Kell could get to her window to open it....when the installer came on Thursday he was very pissed off when he found out that it was a sliding set up...apparently the lady from the blind / curtain place had rung him about them and he had told her not to do sliding in the bathroom next to the bath as water gets in underneath the plinth board and rusts the screws and makes it look ugly etc....hmmmm I says to him, she didn't tell me any of that, so we talked about it and decided to get new shutters made on a bi-fold system making them sit above the line of the bath with a boxed in area underneath it to make it look neat..........only trouble is I (or should i say Kelly) now have to wait 6-8weeks for them to be made.
Kelly now has her wardrobe installed...yay, the painter came in on Wednesday to paint over the replastered areas on both Kells and the craft room robes.
More dramas with the silly things....firstly as i have said, i ordered shelves for the end section instead of a full hanging section.....in both the craft room and our WIR I had measured the spaces incorrectly, Tony remeasured all the robes when we started to install them, Kells was the only one i got right...or so we thought...I had it down as 1.8m...Tony measured it at 1.8m, so why did i get them made at 1.9m?.....Tony went back in and remeasured on Wednesday night...darn thing was 2m internally...goofed by a long way.....thankfully all was not lost...we used the shelf from the robe that we had kept when Porter Davis ripped out their installation. Have ordered a hanging bar and supports off the internet so they will match the half hanging section on the opposite end.
Finally got my wall scones changed over at Beacon...they are slightly darker in colour than the first lot we had, now they dont look too bad and match in slightly better with the ceiling light.
Starting to put pics up around the walls, hopefully we can get this done during the week as Tony is working nights on Mon & Tues then has 5 days off.
All in all the house is slowly coming together, now we need to go to my mums and pick up the gigantic mirror for the dining room.
