Back to work :(

Back at work, and the building is not complete.. however a nice little package arrived from England today :) I have only displayed 'some' of the items.. love them!! 

:)

Roof & Ceiling

Last night and today I prepared the roof & celing.  Lots of drying time, still not finished with the timber bits, just took some photo's to record where I'm up to :) Not long to go now till I have a complete building - finishing touches/cleanups oh and some windows and a door LOL

Love timber ceilings :) 

Nails....

My brother suggested nailing the decking LOL - not a bad idea in fact!! So I did!! I used normal sewing pins.. hammered them in a bit, cut them off and hammered them in some more.  I like the effect!

Looking good so far :) Still not finished.. but wow!! Thanks Col! xx

Well worth the effort!

Cardboard & Spray paint :)

Managed to get the place together a little more.. it's still only 3pm :) woohoo!! Going to get SOO much done!

Spray paint :) LOVE it!!

Roof.. so far.. it won't go on till the place is finished.. and SO much to do to it ;-)

Possibly got wayyyy too much corrigated cardboard - but I do have another project requiring it :) 

Not finished.. but looking good! Cans of dog food holding down icy pole sticks too LOL Daunting job.. but hey.. it's going to be worth it! The deadline for me is getting nearer.. 2 more working days off.. then the weekend.  REALLY want to get this done! 

Back to it!!

Things ARE happening..

I am at the stage now where I have NO idea what I'm doing LOL.. popsicle sticks (aka icy pole sticks - whatever you want to call them) are going to be used for the decking outside.  I don't have a door to fit this doorway.. have to adapt something.  Some paint touch-ups needed here and there.  But I DO see this looking how I had pictured.. eventually..

Posts.. just the beginning..

Skirting.. oh yes mastered the mitre box ;-) LOL The floor isn't quite finished.. just working out how to fix what I don't like about it..

Today I'm working on completing the roofing.. lots of painting, sanding, cussing haha! Hope it works out ok. Grateful for the gorgeous weather we're having!

More to follow, hopefully tonight :)

Floors :)

Dremel - the dream tools :) Always a must in mini work hey ;-) I have spent up biggly on Dremel tools - finally I get to use them a bit - here's a small part of my dream ownership lol

Have had this glass coat for years.. thought I might put it to work.. no idea what the outcome will be but..

I have used it to coat my floor, which I have since 'distressed' a little and sanded etc.. it's looking great! 24hrs till dry time - covered it to stop dust :)

The next thing is the icy-pole sticks (or popsicle sticks as others call them).. dremel to work on these! Going to be a long haul.. 

Which means I need more of my favorite soft drink LOL (oh yes that's my year)

I found some empty space!! Woohoo!

Oh and.. putting my kliovance container into action :P (pre floor finish)

Money.. spending lots of it! It's worth it.. best entertainment I've had in ages!!

Back to it!
