Cornices

The cornices have been fitted and look great.  Very square and plain.  The cornice is Boral Linear and it works well with our square edge door frames and the overall 'square' look of the house.

The next stage has also been finished, but we haven't quite got around to taking new photos of that yet.  Will post some next week - showing white walls!

We have ceilings!

The plasterers have finished the cement render coat to the internal walls - and the external ones!  So the house is really starting to take shape now - it's much easier to visualise how it will end up looking.

The other exciting milestone is the ceilings!  They went in last week, giving real dimension to the rooms.  We are happy with the height of the ceilings - 36 courses (3.1m) in the main areas and 33 courses (2.8m) in the bedrooms and other rooms.

The kids are enjoying seeing it all come together and are starting to argue about which room is theirs.  They have fun scooting around the place, while Macey just lies there checking it all out.  We think Macey remembers living at Carine before, so she really makes herself at home and marks the territory as hers whenever we're there.  Is very cute!

The doorway on the right is the access to the laundry.
Both of these doorways will have cavity sliding doors.
