Hey mb, thanks for your advice.
My mind is made up about the rug, it's a GONER!

Oooohhhh no disrespect meant there Deemaree. In fact, I can see the benefits in being a young granny.
You're right about not…

Oi! I'm not old enough to be a granny.

No I don't have kids.
Love the Vegemite!
Although, having said that, I've…

That's how I feel too Michelle, which is why I thought of the reds/oranges.
I originally intended to get a cream shag/noodle rug, then use burnt oranges/reds with cushions and accessories.
Would…

Do you reckon, I'd be better off just getting a Latte coloured shag, instead?
Is the rug pattern too busy?
Michelle, here's a pic I took of them, they're a bit darker…

I just looked at the pics and it was probably better to view them with a couple under my…

Thanks for the replies so far...
Dollar - Thanks for the compliment. I didn't paint the wall, it's a rental.
However, I have found a paint sample card that's fairly…

My present home is a rental and I will be living here for the next 12 months at least.
At the moment, it really is a blank canvas, with just the…

Michelle,
I agree about the size of the pots and think they'd look smaller if spaced too far apart.
Not sure about a fourth pot, there's something about uneven numbers…

Kek,
Your backyard looks awesome!
You really have a talent for choosing just the right thing to complete a space. …

Kek,
Thanks so much for your reply.
I'm liking the idea of bamboo more and more!
Your pots look bloody excellent! Thanks for the pics and ideas, it's definitely formed…

Hi Michelle,
I love what you've done with your new home and have followed it for longer than I have been posting here. …

Kek, painting plastic pots is a great idea, thanks! How do you prepare the plastic pots for painting?
I've considered potting my plants in those large, ugly black plastic pots…

I didn't want to hijack JJJ305's screening tree thread, therefore have started this one.
I want some quick growing trees/shrubs that I can plant in large pots. It's…

Kek, your backyard looks sensational!!!

Penny,
Rather than buying a rug for a home you're going to sell. Have you considered
getting one of those crayons from a hardware store that is used for scratches in…

Yup, sorry I'm with the majority on this one.
What about a white buffet instead of trying to match timber stains?
Just thought I'd throw it out there!

Mrs B, I love your table!
I've been lurking patiently to see what you've done, so thought I'd give a gentle

Sorry to bang on about the Xmas decorations again!
Just wanted to let you all know that Bed Bath n Table have got…
