Colours

Tuesday just gone marked another step forward towards our home being built. We got to have our first (and only I discovered later) colour appointment. I expected to only select my exteriors, kitchen, carpet and finishing touches, but ended up selecting the entire house. The team at Clarendon Create did a fantastic job, offering great suggestions when needed and making sure that everything was covered. They weren't pushy at all either, which is always a relief. Half way through the day I saw a premade colour board on the wall which had very similar colours to what I have been creating in my mind for so long - great to see that my ideas are in line with the professionals!

So here goes, this is what we have chosen...

EXTERIOR

Brick - Austral Everyday Life Leisure with Off White mortar with Flush finish

Roof Tile - Contour Charcoal Grey

Window Frame - Surfmist

Acrylic Render & Fascia - Dune

Garage Door, Gutter's and Downpipe - Ironstone

INTERIOR

Wall Paint - Eddystone, Taubmans

Ceiling, Architraves, Skirtings & Doors - Illusive White, Taubmans (also known apparently as Elusive White or Crisp White)

KITCHEN

Wall Cabinets - Porcelain Texture, Polytec

Kitchen Bench Top - New Diamond White (Quantum Quartz)

Butlers Pantry Bench Top - Snow Fabrini, Polytec

BATHROOM & ENSUITE

Vanity Cabinets - Polar White, Matt, Polytec

Vanity Top - Cavia Lini, Matt, Polytec

Fences Are Down

It was such an exciting surprise to find that the fences have come down around the land! So I got to take my very first steps on what is so close to being our block of land. It will be exciting in September to be able to take Doug on the same walk.

Having handed in our contracts, received the dates for our first colour appointment and signed the banks paperwork things finally feel like they are moving along.  I can't believe we started this process in January with our deposit on the land and we are now in August and having only just taken our first steps.
