Base Cabinets in position .... but need tweaking

Kitchen Base Cabinets have been placed in position. This was not a custom made kitchen therefore requires some tweaking to make it fit.

And now internally!

Progressive photos of setting up the Bathroom and Kitchen. Fairly self explanatory. The Kitchen was purchased off eBay for a quarter of it's value. It came out of a Custom Kitchen Manufacturer's showroom .... an absolute bargain and we can't even use all of it!

Dad only too happy to help out

Our Bathroom has a Lockable Lever Handle


The rest of our shed looking from what will be our living space

Measure twice .... cut once!

Still in the Bathroom. The other side of this Plaster Wall is the Kitchen

Our Shower
Still in the Bathroom
Our Wood Heater .... another Bargain at 1/4 of it's retail price .... and yes another eBay purchase
Whatever time we have off, we're at the Shed doing something. It's an absolute pleasure to be out here and its so very very quiet. The land size is fantastic too, so much space. We've met the majority of our neighbours and they are lovely.

Spot the Difference!




Our Concrete Contractor was called back to lay some concrete paths around the Shed's perimeter. That way we will have a clean area to both walk and park on.

Laying it all out to see what works best

Prior to framing up walls to divide the Kitchen and the Bathroom, cabinets are laid out to see what measurements will work.

Our Quirky Letterbox

We always had a vision of having something completely different and unusual as a Letterbox for our property. We decided to have it cut out of Cypress Pine. We had Ash cut a tree in half, literally. We purchased a Stainless Steel Lockable Letterbox and he cut out a perfect hole for this to be installed. It weighs so much a crane had to be used to deliver it.

Approximately 50 cm of it will be below ground and set in concrete

We plan to let it weather naturally so that eventually it will be shades of Grey (not 50 just a few) and a Feature against our Cypress Pine Stained Fence.

Popped out to measure up
