Sarah and Marie's Metricon Build Project

Thursday 17 October 2013

So the 31st will be our first PC - Prelimary contract meeting for about 1.5 hours with Anthony from Metricon.
Were quite excited to get the prelim details of the house which we will be changing the windows for the bathroom to make a feature wall.

We now know the house will be aprox 267sq mts which means once we get the final draft I can sort out the finances and legal stuff with the bank - here's hoping that there's another rate drop :D

On another note I had to return one of the dome black and white 3/4 lights as it had nasty scratched on the inside - it looked like it been open before several layers of regular tape on top kind of gave it away lol (unlike the other which was sealed with one single packing tape)

Anyway Beacon (nunawadding) are ordering me a new replacement - I think I will need to follow up on this as no reference number was given to me for the new order and they didn't seem to keen to get one in for me. They where suggesting I go to hoppers crossing store which is much father away and impossible for me to do as I work full time and  I work in Box Hill I can easily pickup lights from that store before they shut on weekdays.

I have been looking at pebble's for the garden and side steps next to the house (from ebay -scopetp)
 70-90 mm  IVORY WHITE BEACH PEBBLES -- 20 kg AU $19.00


















I was thinking I might use some black pebbles in feature places but cant find ones as much as I like the shape and textures as these above.


I like the idea of these lights near garage/garden to light up paths etc but very expenive if you have to buy 3.. I was looking for the best price but its still a bit $$$ this is the cheapest price I could find..
NEW Monaco LED Bollard in Graphite UA7325GP - AU $149.35 (ebay : wayfair_australia)























So the pots arrived!! and guess what they look just as good if not better than the photos on ebay were both very pleased and the white one hexigon pot is larger than the picture looked so its great for one of the corners of the back yard. I'm still looking for a slab of teak sandstone paver 40-70mm thick to go under them and probably black stone paver of some sort under the white pot.

I'm thinking of putting a Red flax plant in the white pot.
