Slab Formwork & kitchen decisions!

The formwork has been started for the slap. The first picture shows the area where the garage will go.




In this picture below you'll see the garage on the left. The little square right in the middle is the portico and on the right at the front is the master bedroom.

A wider shot of the house.... yep, they are cows in the background... mooooooo!



The builder has said that the slab will be poured next Friday - today is Sunday.

We finally made a decision about the kitchen - we will have pot drawers on either side of the oven!! We will have a corner cuboard with a lazy susan kind of thing so the corner isn't wasted. It was so hard to decide, we laughed about having a camp kitchen with just a portable sink and table in it.

On the weekend we had a look at some new homes to see if we could find something - a tile or glass - that would look good in the splashback area. We do have our heart set on the mega expensive tiles... but if there is something else we love just as much, well that would be fabulous. We did see one place that had gloss porcelain tiles as their spashback. The colour was dark and it looked like marble. Did I say that I had definitely changed the colour of the kitchen to Mountain Pepper.

One last thing for my partner - the cat DOES not want to be launched in to space like an astronaut.. so DON'T kick him off the chair! xx
