upstairs internal doors- we should have kept to the original paint choice and we should have taken the risk and had the mid rail lower- bit disappointed- they look a bit normal

bamboo worktop - big job but well worth it

a little help- jude is a good little helper






wibble wobble = the snug is looking good
