A light find



My dream guy is an electrician, who runs his own electrical contracting company.
 I realize now is the moment to give his business a little plug, after all this is a subject in his area of expertise, & he made this fabulous find. SO if you're in the Newcastle/ Hunter Valley are & your in need of a VERY GOOD sparky, he is your guy.
He does all manner of  electrical work from domestic, commercial & industrial. Whether its a new build, a renovation, air con installation, garden lights, lighting layout or a simple power point he is the man for the job. He is a perfectionist, a neat freak, he has awesome time management skills, which make him very efficient & he is very good at fault finding.
 He has completed many projects including tunnel lights on The Great Western Highway at Leura  for the RTA, nursing homes, retirement villages, maintenance, repairs & installations in large factories, shop fit outs, testing & tagging of electrical appliances for many businesses, he even changes light globes from time to time.

Okay Okay, that's my dream guy's moment in the spotlight, now onto his fabulous find....


Isn't she pretty...

He replaced this 3 tier pendant light for a lady & she asked him to take it away for her....

This was about 2 years ago & he has had it sitting in a box in the workshop ever since...

Today he happened upon it & thought I might like it or Know some one that would...

I have to say I really do love it & so did my dream child No.1
We thought perhaps we could hang it in one corner of her bedroom in the new house, placing an accent chair underneath, giving her a place to dump more stuff  little reading nook in her room. We would then need to add in a couple of gold accents around the room to tie it in.

Ikea  Levanger Mirror

Perhaps a gold full length mirror...

A few gold photo frames...


Or possibly a sunburst mirror.

What do you think, should we keep this one ?
Sell it on eBay?
 or possibly even paint it or rub it back to silver?

CHEERS

Dream kitchen Inspiration

Whilst I'm still in the planning stage of my dream house I am putting a lot of thought into what I would like my dream kitchen to look like. The kitchen in my last house was very nice, but dark for my liking. It was made of Tasmanian Black wood with Black granite bench tops.
  Our last house had already been fully renovated when we purchased it & although it was a very nice home, it was decorated to someone else's tastes. Changing major elements would have been over capitalising for the market it was in.
This is why building from scratch is so stressful  exciting, its all about ME & I can have just what I want(within budget of course)



Sorry about the quality of the images, I hadn't even heard of a blog when I took these pics...

As you can see, its a little dark


 This is an appliance cupboard, we kept our kettle & coffee & tea here & the cups  above.


The fabulous wine rack that i never managed to completely fill....

Now for my inspiration:

I love  beautiful white kitchens
I love island benches
I love pendant lights over the Island bench
I love walk in pantry cupboards
I love overhead cupboards that reach all the way to the ceiling
I love shaker style doors
I love double bowl sinks

Great overhead cupboards. The marble with white & stainless steel looks fantastic


A little pantry love here...


Is this every bodies favourite, its just perfect in every way....


What a nice coffee making set up, perfect for the connoisseur...


This is pretty close to what I would like....


Great industrial looking pendants...


These bamboo roman blinds add great texture, I think I will have these in my dream house kitchen
for sure!!

I couldn't resist adding this one because I LOVE that clock!!!


 This is a gorgeous idea for along the window side of my dream kitchen...

Colour Me happy
This one looks like it has a tile floor in the colour I would like in my dream house, makes me feel I made need to go for black bench tops....

Home Beautiful
These baskets add a nice touch, giving this kitchen a bit of a country feel.

I am having a tile floor in my kitchen, probably a sandstone colour, I really like warm whites.
Do you have any suggestions for the perfect bench top colour to go with my white cabinets & light tile  floors?
