Loving on Chinese cabinets

Loving Chinese cabinets

I want this


From HERE



Or this - from Etsy

I have two cabinets like this


I saw these advertised on Etsy and recognised them.

I have two. I love them. 

How good would it be to have them built in as part of the two bathrooms I want in the house reno?


Front verandah latest

So, the two new chairs are in. Things are starting to look a tad crowded, although it's cosy. A lot of these items will be moved around when I get the reno going. It's good to have this space as another room - an outdoor room! I just love the filtered sunshine and lots of places for the puddies to sit.

Plan for Reno


And this is how Lorelle thinks it could look:

- the profile

- the dining and back deck


- dining area - not sure about the window placement but that can be discussed later. White tile not so keen on, prefer beige.


New cane chairs

Bought these via the Ipswich Buy and Sell Facebook site. They will look great painted white. The covers will be white too or maybe an accent grey. They are delivered today at lunchtime.

Met a new friend in the process, Merlene, 74, who lives not far from the local Church of Christ. Will be sure to stay in touch with her!



Hate the current covers - these will change.


New sign

Bought this 'Aussie' one at Brassall Shopping Centre - discounted. Like it.

It needs to be inside, but maybe after the reno is done, it will go in the living area, with plants around it, under the staircase.



It's just lovely out there with all the sunshine.

I like this sign too (below) but of course, it's American - I haven't been to all those places. But it's there in honour of my very special American friends.


Bought all those lovely white hydrangeas from Target yesterday. Love 'em!
