Mental Notes: House Inspiration (Again)

I was opening one of the catalogue from all the shops which normally fill up our mailbox on a weekly basis and found this interesting thing from Aldi which may be something that we will need in the new house.
As early as now, I am already planning the things that we need and where we will possibly get them.  I had this thought that being on special I need to get this mailbox as we will never know when it will be available again.




But, as I normally do, I would see if the same thing can be found somewhere else just in case I would not be able to get the Aldi mailbox as I am more concerned as to where I will put them temporarily since we wont be needing it for a couple of months from now.
Look what I found from our handy dandy local Bunnings.
Since this is available all year round, I decided to just leave it until we need it.

This letterbox (whose background looks like our house except that our brick is dark) is what I think we might go for and is ditching the idea of the brick one ...


Pebbles and stepping stones another thing that I have to remember and Bunnings is one of the place that we can source that from but I am still in the lookout for other places that we can source these on a cheaper price.




  

This is what we think would be how our side of the house would look like ... MrK would really be a handyman to pull off the things that we want as I am not prepared to pay someone else to lay them all. hahahah.

That's all for  now and thanks for joining us in our journey towards building our humble home.

Though I don't want to be excited, why can't I ... when Beechwood already informed us that on this date is the day when our land will start to thrive life and movements when construction starts.

We are happy and should we say, excited too...

Thank you for joining us in our journey of building our humble home.

Kids Room and Hallway inspirations

Knowing that we decided not to fork out $230 per room should we try to change the colour of any room aside from the Shale Grey that we opted for our internal walls, which I do adore, I decided to head back to see some inspirations from the net to see how we can spruce up a grey wall to give it some personality.

After seeing these photos (plus more) I realised that its not that bad after all... I was really scared that it will not suit in our kid's room but these photos proved me wrong .

Trying to find that gorgeous pendant light too

I became excited on the crafts that I can do for the room .... Those photo frame is already playing in my head on how I will make it.

An inspiration for my little man who loves to read books

Now I turn my vision to our hallway.  The very first thing that people will see when we open our door, when we invite them over and I want it not to be too formal but something inviting and interesting.  Putting an art may not be everyone's interest so these ones might probably a good one to start with ... because I know, at some point - perhaps after a year or two, I will change it again to something more interesting for the time.

 

 

That's it for now and thanks for joining us as we journey to building our humble home.
