Karina's House Project: January 2015

http://karinashouseproject.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html

Saturday, January 31, 2015. Guild Grey or Ticking? Actually I prefer the Guild Grey, I'm just not sure it will provide enough contrast. Everything is just 50 shades of grey…. This "Ticking" is way more dramatic. But is that what I want? I have a bit of time to decide anyway. All these nail holes have to be plugged up and sanded back and everything given a coat of primer. It's finally stopped raining and the weekend is here so guess what we'll be doing…? Posted by Karina Roberts. Thursday, January 22, 2015.

Karina's House Project: July 2014

http://karinashouseproject.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html

Friday, July 25, 2014. The neighbourhood where I live - Part 2. Something else happened recently in the neighbourhood and I can't work out whether it's really sweet or really creepy. I have a couple of garden angels, one which is known and some which are not known. The first known one is my neighbour. He's a sweet, retired man who mows my front lawn, takes my bins in (and puts them out when I forget) and is just one of those general good neighbours you have a chat with over the fence.

Karina's House Project: August 2014

http://karinashouseproject.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html

Sunday, August 31, 2014. Houston…we have a problem! Comment when you see it! Posted by Karina Roberts. Friday, August 29, 2014. Totally, totally in love with the work of Ali McNabney-Stevens. I would so love these for my dining room, would add a bit of colour. Am a bit over my DIY canvas art. I loved them at the time, but they don't really suit the style anymore. Which is a shame…it took me ages to make them. So…back to Ali. Love! Guess I should start saving…. Posted by Karina Roberts. The tomatoes haven...

Karina's House Project: Hungry Little Caterpillars

http://karinashouseproject.blogspot.com/2015/07/hungry-little-caterpillars.html

Saturday, July 25, 2015. Something is eating my gardenias! Super sad and annoyed face! I guess they're snails, but I haven't actually been able to find them. They must munch away under the cover of darkness and then disappear during the day. I really don't want to put any chemicals on them, but I'll have to do something quick. These are hungry little caterpillars! Posted by Karina Roberts. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. The Native Gardenias at the Door.

Karina's House Project: September 2014

http://karinashouseproject.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html

Sunday, September 28, 2014. Sitting on the fence. I have to make a decision on what kind of front fence to get. I was originally going to get hardwood timber posts with pool fencing in between mainly because it would be quick and I thought quite economical. Something along the lines of this -. Image from www.ilandscape.com.au. I'm totally on the fence (pun intended) with all of this. What say you? Posted by Karina Roberts. Saturday, September 6, 2014. The birds loved sitting on our balcony railing…...

Karina's House Project: Guest Towel Excitement

http://karinashouseproject.blogspot.com/2015/06/guest-towel-excitement.html

Wednesday, June 17, 2015. I bought new towels for the guest bathroom! Do you love them as much as I do? They'll get their first workout tomorrow night when we have out of town friends staying over. These were the towels that were in there before. They're ok, but lack any punch. The news ones are so much more dramatic. I really need to stop getting charcoal and grey though. This house really is 50 Shades of Grey. Posted by Karina Roberts. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Karina's House Project: Little Gems!

http://karinashouseproject.blogspot.com/2015/07/little-gems.html

Sunday, July 19, 2015. The magnolias are in! I couldn't wait until that entire garden bed (on the left) was prepped. The magnolias were in pots that were pretty small and the wind kept blowing them over so I bit the bullet and planted them in. The soil has lots of clay and it would have taken hours to dig out the entire garden bed and last weekend, I just didn't have hours to spare. Just digging that small section took a good part of the afternoon. As I expected, I LOOOOVE them! Posted by Karina Roberts.

Karina's House Project: October 2014

http://karinashouseproject.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html

Tuesday, October 7, 2014. The next problem caused by the great skirting board stuff. Up is the door stops. (It's like the gift that keeps on giving…). The door stop set. The latch on the right was the bit thrown out with the skirtings. I've always hated those door stops anyway, they were U-G-L-Y (you got no alibi), but of course when I went to find replacements for the stops, I couldn't find any, anywhere. So I decided to pull them off and replace them with much nicer chrome ones. Posted by Karina Roberts.
