Updates... and LIGHTS!!

So yesterday Marie and I went down nunawading furniture/hardware/lighting shops ' I think they call this 'the golden mile' - or somthing like that.

I went looking for honed sandstone (teak) pavers to my disapointment most of the stone shops where closed and bunnings hardware store only had 20mm thick when I propabably need 40-50mm thick for my bubble pots which some will arrive in the next day - the others will be delayed until new stock arrives in.

We ending up going into Beacon lighting where we need to get our lights from - although its might not be the store which we will need to go to pick the main lights as metricon have preferred beacon suppliers close to them but to cut a long story short they where having a pretty big sale - 30% off your 2nd light which is neat because lights are expensive! especially feature ones.

We purchased 2x $129- and the other at $90.30 = $219.30

$129.00

$90.30

$129.00

Inside 1 Light 3/4 Dome Pendant in Black/White
These will be above the Kitchen bench (L Shaped)

 

And this is the other main center dining room Light! (see below)
It's hard to get the details of the drum pendant light so I looked up the patter matertials on 'mayfield's' website: http://www.mayfieldlamps.com.au/
Althought being the last one and getting a discount, these lights are kind of expensive
but they look far better quality than most other look-a-likes.

What got us is that we thought it was a 'whole package' depsite there being 3 tags on the lights
one for each component the suspension/conector, diffuser (the white shad below the bulb) and the key compoent the drum.

So of course there was confusion and we didn't end up getting the suspension/connector and the diffuser which was bit more $$ the sales rep at beacon had made the mistake for also thinking that it was a set so she's going to get in a new 1.5 suspension and new diffuser with what she said I would get 15% off for the mistake we will see how it all goes!
I will triple check when I pick up :-) I had to have this light its so nice!

 C2 Starburst (inside)
Ours seems to have some blue as well as these base colours! Blue, grey, white with a splash of yellow - All our colour scheme in ONE! :-)

C3 Black Soft Pleat (outside)
This looks softer on the outside than in the swatch.












I would have loved to go shopping for down lights but it wouldn't be wise as electrical plan meeting hasn't happened yet!  I know it may be cheaper but we might end up with not enough or too many lights but that's okay will just wait for Metricon to sort it.
