I would be interested in recommendations too for Brisbane area.

What about getting a cabinetmaker to build you some custom-made, using shaker style doors. You could put fancy handles on too. I imagine your other cabinetry is possibly shaker style…

I went through this same conundrum and ended up not putting a bath in at all, but I will be putting a bath downstairs so there will at least be…

I spent a lot of time stressing and researching this issue and didn't want to got the cheap option and have a toilet that didnt flush well! I got a…

I got a few things from Tradelink - from memory they price match. They have a good range of mid-end stuff.

What an amazing renovation you're doing! I have a very similar house in Brisbane. The same yellow kitchen! We are putting in a modern kitchen, but I was amazed how…

This is a good thread. I am going to buy some low-chill blueberries to grow in pots here in Brisbane. I will use pots so I can easier manage the…

I've heard that after turf is laid and established, sand is used on top to even it out. Maybe fill in any holes with dirt, lay turf in those parts…

Late reply from me Robbie55 but thank you! I had no idea that was done. I have looked up Magnetite and they have leadlight windows in their gallery. We shall…

Hi, wondering whether you think it's best to have the same window furnishings house-wide or if mixing it up is acceptable?
I feel it's acceptable to mix them so long as…
