So how did this happen you ask? Well I ended up sharing a before and after pic of our laundry reno and kitchen time-lapse video on the IKEA Facebook page. They loved it so much they asked if they could feature it on their website homepage!! So I am proud to say that our kitchen reno is a wee bit famous now with over 1500 views!! Classic hey!

The warm and welcoming rustic kitchen |
My favourite room of the home has to be the rustic kitchen. An eclectic mix of furniture from different eras past, mixed with a bit of modern. I have spent many an evening being treated to some of the best food that I've ever eaten from this cute kitchen. Cherie and Damien always put so much love into their cooking, and I believe this is probably their favourite room too!

A quick time-lapse of our complete kitchen reno. Denis and I have had so much fun putting this together. Although it was hard work during some very hot and sticky days! It has taken us two weeks to get to this point so far.
Tiling still to come and then the floor needs to be re-sanded. Will post official before and after photos very soon!
Toodle-pip!

Denis's little movie creation of our Laundry renovation (almost) complete! Yes we are strange creative types. Who else would do a movie masterpiece of their Laundry!
