I do pause, but that is for diy decor or furnishings. <br /><br />I love your pinwheel jasmine! We had a fence of it in So. Calif. where I was raised. Heavenly!! Do your kids pluck the blossoms an let them fall like helicopters?<br /><br />Now Repeat After Me: "I am an artist with vision, and collaborating with others does not mean I leave the finesse to them."<br /><br />Snooty cow can't deal with a little plaster in her pudding!! ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898359052933678205.post-21996556470401225952015-10-15T19:52:46.860+11:002015-10-15T19:52:46.860+11:00Bonjour from a chilly SW France, We are in exactly...Bonjour from a chilly SW France, We are in exactly the same position. The majority of the work is finished but there is still the laundry and my dressing room to go....and a stair runner to be laid.<br /><br />I had the plasterers in this week plastering my new walk in wardrobe. Once this is dry I will paint then the builder will come back to lay the tiles and then we can think about rails, drawers etc.<br /><br />I have learnt from previous restorations that it is better to take things slowly and think a bit more before actually carrying out the task. It has taken me a couple of montsh to find a sofa that I liked but I am happy that I did not rush out and buy the first one that I saw :-)<br /><br />I also love the idea of having a list and crossing off the tasks one by one....<br /><br />bonne continuation, Leeann xFabulously Frenchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07188064656616598471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898359052933678205.post-7301585142784817692015-10-15T17:09:31.950+11:002015-10-15T17:09:31.950+11:00Nice that you have some projects to look forward t...Nice that you have some projects to look forward to. I've never renovated, always lived in rental properties, but that doesn't stop me dreaming of changes.<br />I see you have star jasmine, that's my favourite jasmine.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898359052933678205.post-54700408955100153392015-10-15T11:59:54.186+11:002015-10-15T11:59:54.186+11:00Coming along very nicely!
