If you follow me socially (via Instagram, Facebook or through my Facebook Group) you may have seen some progress snippets over the past few weeks. I've been holding-off on posting here because I was so eager to have something finished to share, but the fact is we're...
Why, hello there! Remember me? I'm sorry I've been so absent. Things have been busy, just not in a super productive way. With summer holidays comes lots of family time which means completing projects and writing blog posts isn't always a priority, or sometimes even a...
I know it's almost Christmas and everyone has better things to do than catch-up on other people's house progress, but I really wanted to share this quick update on the suite extension. Our original plan was to have the build aspect entirely complete and signed-off...
If you caught my last suite extension update, you might recall reading that I was in wallpaper town trying to decided on something for the bathroom. As mentioned early on, my parents like simple classic interiors which can stand the test of time, so injecting a bit of...

Although I've worked on a heap of bathrooms in the past, they've always been simple refreshes, or DIY makeovers, so this is the very first time I've ever started from scratch! And it's sooooo exciting! I mean, as much as I love my basic updates, there's just something...
As exciting as the construction phase of a new build can be, we all know that the truly exciting bit lies in pulling everything together! Choosing fixtures and fittings, selecting colours, looking at wallpapers, comparing tiles, deciding on flooring...I could go on....
The frame is already up and as I type this the roof is going on (yep!) though before I get to sharing the build progress, I thought I should divulge the plan. As mentioned in my last post, this will be a second story addition to my parent's 1960's house. They...
Now that the sun has well and truly set on the flip house, it's finally time to share what I'll be working on next! Some of you may have caught snippets of this if you follow me on Instagram or through my Facebook group, and I'm excited to reveal that I'm helping...
