2011... here we come

During the break, we managed to make our skirting and internal door selection. We chose a skirting design outside the standard builder's selection... and...at no extra cost! This is another example where the builder (CBD) is not charging us extra if his supplier is not charging him anything. Because he knows for the fact that we are in a very tight budget, he's quite considerate about our cost. We also upgraded 7 internal doors for a very minimal cost.

We also went to the builder's tiles supplier showroom to select our bathroom and kitchen tiles. It was both very exciting and educational. We found lightweight alternative stacker stones we can use for our facade. We also learned about timber-feel and looking tiles. We are thinking of using it to our alfresco and front porch. We have to crunch up the number to see if we can afford it... we're still discussing it..
