Still undecided about the brick!

I have looked at lots of houses in the bricks that I like, and I am still no closer to making a decision! this is really hard, really really hard! I may have narrowed it down but I am not confident in my decision. I am usually so good with this kind of thing I know what I don't like so that has helped, but I am not sure that I like what is left over.

We have our colour appointment on Thursday so I hope I can come up with something!

Any tips or advice on choosing would be greatly appreciated

Plans are in the mail

Woo Hoo got a message today to say our plans are in the mail….I am excited just a little! I have been warned that Liverpool council will take 3 months but I was prepared for that anyway!
Feel like something is happening now…. So all going well construction should start around March/April.

Crazy ideas! Decorating

I have these crazy ideas and one of them is how I want my family room space to be, this will be mine and my husbands space and I would like it to be a shabby chic meets mess look. I just love the eclectic and miss-matched look it's very much like me. My husband and I love to read and listen to music...NO TV here!

here are a few ideas that I have including the revenge chair lol....

The revenge chair

 I quite like the style of this bookcase

love this look and the lounge

I like this idea as well

love this mirror

Not sure how any of this will go in a modern house, I may very well change my mind once we move in so wont be purchasing any thing just yet!

What we will really be using as furniture for a while lol

Colours

We have our deposit variation, we want to make a few small changes one being the air conditioner and the other the glass to our bedroom we would like double glazed there even though our neighbour is rather quite I would still prefer to have it! Hopefully wont be a problem to make any necessary changes!

Our colour walk through will be in 2 weeks so I best get myself organised about what colours we would prefer and a trip to austral bricks will be required as well.....Busy Times

I am liking this sofa bed for the kids area...just getting ahead of myself and having a little dream of some furniture I would like :)

and the Spotted Gum timber floors that I would like.

 I LOVE THEM!

Understanding the Quote

So we have a Quote! most of it is fairly straight forward some i'm just not sure about, GOOGLE is now my new best friend! However I am hoping some of you lovely bloggers out there might have some tips and advice for me.

We want double glazed windows on the master bedroom to help eliminate noise as our bedroom will be along the neighbours driveway. In the quote its 6.38mm laminated sun energy. Not sure that it will provide much noise block Does anyone know anything about this?


Soil removal, should we be worried? This is something that we have to organise and pay for ourselves, the sales lady said this is a good thing but I am unsure... any advice here would be great too.
