Decorating one of the wardrobes

Nearly done with the wardrobe!

Building bedroom furniture

Building a bed for one of the bedrooms.

And the open wardrobe / hanging area.

And the wardrobes in another bedroom.

Starting to build kitchen cupboards

The flat packed carcasses stacked up ready to be built.

Standard, off the shelf carcasses.

Fitting out the master bedroom

The boarded wall behind the bed.

Looking towards the ensuite.

Fitting out the dressing area.

There are dressing tables on either end of the boarded wall the bed will go up against.

Scaffold boards

Scaffold boards drying out, ready to start making furniture out of.

Ok, so its been a little longer than a couple of weeks!

Mirrors

We have learnt the same lesson twice this week - glaziers work to 3mm tolerances, so trying to get multiple mirrors to fit tight into a set gap is too ambitious.

More work in the bathrooms

Mosaic tiles in the family bathroom.

Grouting the magnetic removable tiled panel.

And the fixed tiling around the basin.

The bath panel and mirror cupboards fitted.

The front of the mirror cupboards.

The ensuite all plumbed in with cupboards and shelves completed.

Basin fixed to the wall in WC, but not plumbed in yet.

It's the smallest basin in the world!
