Christmas morning

Christmas morning the children got their bedrooms. they loved them. they have seem me working on them for weeks but i have been locking the door so they couldnt see what i was doing. I will post the videos of their reactioin when youtube lets me.




Final touches and moving in

final touches.... these moulded cupboard doors... beware! they love to bow... so keep them flat and dont cut much off!!!!


old bedrooms were completely vacated. we did this over a week... the kids noticed the slowly all their stuff was going missing. We kept the bedrooms locked so the children couldnt see inside until christmas morning.
We slept on inflatable matrasses on christmas eve.... the new rooms were to be the christmas present.



carpet

Gary came on the 16 of december to lay the carpet.... the skirtings were finished only a couple of days before and me and a friend scrubbed and washed the floor because we were going to have the carpet glued down with a pressure sensative glue.

SKYLIGHTS

Well i have now installed the second last skylight. this is for the bathroom.
