ReplyDeleteSorry Terrie, haven't been on here for a while. all starting now we had a little bit of a hold up with the bank but happy to say the demolition crew started today. here is link to our colour selection http://findingumbridge.blogspot.com.au/p/colours.html. we pretty much stuck to neutral and I will add pops of colour with our furniture. the flooring we are getting solid timber floors . It's been a hell of a journey so far and I am amazed at how patient I am being about it all lol. I can't wait to start to watch it being built :)
