We recently also updated a few things throughout the house whilst doing the new down stairs project.

First was the bedroom which I posted a few pages back
Then the back living area..

Dont mind the washing and the dead plant haha.
And still waiting on somelaxy electrician to put the cables in the wall behind the tv.
Hopefully putting a nice standing lamp instead of the table and lamp next to the couch... havent found one I really love yet

The floors will hopefully be ripped up next year when the walls on the opposite side of the room get demod for the kitchen reno (almost doubling the size of the kitchen)

And I have a very lovely welder making me a custom coffee table when he has the spare time so that's a kmart cheapy til it happens.

Also we are slowly getting though replacing all the doors in the house too... we painted all skirtings etc white as they were dark wood and the doors matching, so they're changing to the white routered finish doors and black handles (house was all dark wood and gold crap) jumped online to a handles place as I really wanted black (as jets also replacing all powerpoints and switches to black too).
Cheapest anywhere was $60 a handle... got em for just over $30

Before and after

They're my doors. Done the same thing but went with porcelain white knobs. 

We're going to change everything again soon.

Nothing wrong with them. They look good. Better than those other doors which is what I had also.

Dont jump too quick coz sometimes it can look a sh*t shade until your lights are in etc etc... but at least a coat of paint isnt too ridiculous to change.

I love greys, but theres so many different undertoned greys... warm, cool, ours looked a green shade until the final coat was done and dusted.

That bites Pixy, I tell people to go look through the showhomes , at least you can see the colours in real life lighting before you commit.
