I'm too indulged in our appointments that I completely forgot to show our land progress. It's so far so good. We go and check out it about once or twice a month. Let's hope registration is on time (Feb/Mar 2016)! 15 October 2015 \ 15 November 2015 6 December 2015 ...
Once you electronically approve your variations, Kitchen Culture send you your kitchen drawings. It looks pretty cool! Surprisingly there were no changes to these drawings! haha Final drawings attached: ...

Day 1: Home Option Gallery Kitchen Culture Appointment
Tuesday, December 29, 2015 After having some lunch, it was time for our final appointment for the day. Earlier in the morning, we were pumped and excited but by the end of the day, we were exhausted! We were introduced to Mary Ann, who was new (she started about a month ago). She was very quiet so I felt awkward because we were so loud! Anyway, my...

Day 1: Home Option Gallery Abbey Blinds & Shutters Appointment
Wednesday, December 16, 2015 Our next appointment was with Ashley at Abbey Blinds and Shutters. It was a pretty quick appointment, we knew what we wanted (and we couldn't afford the plantation shutters)! Ashley advised that we had the option of either adding the blinds through Eden Brae, or we could deal with them directly. If you dealt with them directly, you were still able to get...
Next on the list was our Cooks Plumbing appointment. We were matched up with Peta who was very helpful! Can I just say that everything that we spoke about was an upgrade so whatever I write below will be on our upgrades page! haha So this was all plumbing stuff and appliances. We were initially shown in a book what the standard range...
Our next appointment was for air conditioning which was with Glen. He was cool and very helpful! He showed us what air conditioning was included, then showed us a recommended upgrade (yes.. upgrades everywhere)! So he recommended that we upgrade to ESP plus, which saves about 60% energy compared to the standard air conditioner we get. He also advised that in the classic...
Ok, I think we did pretty well with our upgrades... I think!? Amy was very helpful with providing ideas for some of the changes that we were after. Our initial PCV (which still requires items to be deleted) was: Provide off-white mortar in lieu of standard: $236 Provide aluminium flyscreens with aluminium mesh to all sliding/awning aluminium windows: $735 Provide 1No.Additional Cold water...
Day 1 started at 9am. With peak hour traffic, we got there just in time! We introduced ourselves to the reception counter and advised them that we had an appointment. Once we were confirmed, we were asked to wait for our consultant upstairs in the waiting area. We were then introduced to Amy, who was going to be our HOG consultant for the...
After knowing what Day 1 was like, we felt like we were ready for day 2! Day 2 involved the following: Electrical appointment at the Home Option Gallery; Staircase appointment at the Home Option Gallery; and Tiling and carpet appointment at DiLorenzo The day was scheduled to start at 9.30am and finish at 3.30pm, so it was shorter than Day 1. The night...
We were waiting for this day for a while now. I thought I was prepared, but with all the questions they were asking, I definitely wasn't! They gave us a brochure to read to prepare for the day. I read it a few times before we went, but all that completely disappeared! They strongly recommend that you do go to PGH bricks and...
