Painting is well and truly underway!

I've been saying 'we'll be in in a month' for a few weeks now, but four weeks from now is looking relatively realistic. Fit…

Things have been moving along terribly slowly, hence the lack of posts.
We're now up around week 28 and the painters have just started this week.
Here are a few progress photos.…

We're still going! Tiles have been completed and painting starts this week. I'll post some bathroom photos soon.

Thanks, MinandB! Like everyone else, we're hoping that everything comes together as beautifully in reality as it looks in our heads!

I couldn't find the larger samples, kimisstressed, but here's a pic of Surfmist and Gemini Silver side by side on the colour chart.

Sure can - will just have to track them down. Funnily enough, I'm wondering about changing from Gemini Silver to Surfmist!! Although, I've already been told in no uncertain terms…

We are going for a classic, contemporary feel (kind of Hamptons, but not completely), with lots of grey and white and dark bamboo floors. Our selections are below:

Hi there!
I've been following along with lots of builds in the Clarendon thread, and thought, seeing as we're finally making some progress, that I'd start my own thread.
We're building the…
