The fence is looking fab. Mr D is doing a great job despite the rain playing havoc with his schedule. He's working on the gates now that the main fence is done.
The big thick posts we used for the gate posts look impressively substantial, don't they?
Hopefully all will be finished next week if the weather holds up. And then I need to think about a new mail box. Any suggestions?

It is looking great! Letter boxes....don't know a lot but there is a letterbox shop at the coorparoo end of cav rd before the lights that I have heard is good., on the left coming from your place. Cheers Katherine
ReplyDeleteLooking good, they match well with the window features! Deliberate? But when will you feature some nice pink flamingo's on the lawn? :)
ReplyDeleteIt's looking really good already! As for the letterbox, I wouldn't go anything too modern, I think something more 'traditional' looking woulg go nicely with the new fence :)
ReplyDeleteI'll say it's looking fab!! What will you do once there's nothing left to paint?!
ReplyDeleteLove it love it. Interesting and stylish and very much suits the house. spot on actually. melx
ReplyDeleteLove the fancy fence! I don't thin k I've ever bought a letterbox so no help there I'm afraid!
ReplyDeleteFunny...I just purchased a new letterbox today! They don't come cheap! To use the words of another..."I thought I was buying a letterbox, not shares in Rio Tinto!"

ReplyDeleteWhen you find a decent letterbox can you let me know? I don't know what to choose although I'm sure whatever I do pick, our Postie is going to love us for it. For the past 2 years we've had one resting on a besser block!
ReplyDeleteYour fence is looking great!
ReplyDeleteYour fence is very stylish and just right for your house. My suggestion for a letterbox is substantial. Having helped my son with his paper round in the past, I was amazed at the tiny little boxes some people have - the postman must get very frustrated trying to fit larger envelopes through small slots.
ReplyDeleteThe fence looks great! I love the thick posts. You've given me some ideas for when we do a new fence at our place. Have a great weekend. Ange

Wow, that looks fabulous! I love the details and the style you chose. Very stylish. Won't it look great painted.I hope Jason starts painting before it gets too cold...it might be a bit chilly painting without a shirt in Winter!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes,

Just wondering worriedly, Anita, how you will cope with delivery of giveaway wins to your house while you are temporarily without a mailbox?
ReplyDeleteI think the fence is going to really make the sow's ear! Can't wait to see it when it's painted.
ReplyDeleteWe're planning a fence almost identical to yours - they're not cheap though! I really really want to know the name of your builder... Oh, and btw, our house is awfully similar to yours and in similar condition. Unfortunately we have nada renovation skills except painting, so we have to outsource EVERYTHING. Great to see the progress on your house. I like the crisp white you've used. We're agonising over exterior colours.
ReplyDeleteHiya! I've sent you an email. xx
