The creep of the VJ panelling

With Peter working full-time at the moment it’s been limited hours to put in on the renovation.  So that’s how it seems that the VJ has been creeping around the walls panel by panel.  It’s looking fantastic!  The angles of the ceiling and the electrical power points etc have given Peter some challenges (I didn’t know he was a swearing man, though he says it’s okay on a work site hahaha)

It was an exciting day when the Tassie Oak stairs arrived and were dropped perfectly into place.  In the process of being nervously painted by the resident novice painter and decorator, Marg.

We’ve positioned the layout of the kitchen using some of the previous kitchen cabinets for our cabinetmaker to take a look at.  Now we’re waiting expectantly for a quote to either infill and recycle what we’ve got, or start from scratch with a whole new kitchen.  [$$$$$ might be time to revisit the budget $$$$$]

Love the way the sunlight is shining through onto the island.  Windows look perfect.  Trolley is playing at being a dishwasher and step-ladder is playing at being a set of deep drawers.

One of the many decisions that we are making as we go and as the project evolves is what to do with the feature brick wall in the lounge area opposite the kitchen.  Do we leave it as it is? Do we paint it white? We’ve decided not to panel with the VJ, but am interested in what you may think of this treatment we tried….
