some decisions made  — 6 months ago

have decided what colour to repaint the spare bedroom wall, the hallway and the study walls. All with paint we already have. Thats a start I guess.

a step towards this  — 6 months ago

I good step towards making this happen would be to go into the garden shed and familiarize myself with what colours I have in the leftover department. Then I can work out what I can use where and if I need to buy any new paint. So off to the shed I guess.

inside walls  — 7 months ago

The guy we bought the house off was a budding artist and he painted multi-coloured stipes on some of the interior walls. Of course they are in ugly colours and look pretty appalling so I want to repaint those walls.

1. study x 2 walls
2. toilet x 1 wall
3. bathroom x 1 wall
4. spare room x 1 wall
5 dining room x 1 wall

Will use colours that fit in with rest of house colour scheme. Have all the materials bar the paint.

tagine  — 8 months ago

tonight I begun the process of seasoning my new tagine in preparation for its first use tomorrow night.

additions!!  — 8 months ago

I have a tagine that I will actually use to cook with but while its not being put to use in the kitchen I intend on using it as a beautiful display piece. Its a gorgeous clay piece with some patterned glazing. I also now have two lovely moroccan tea glasses and two plates in blue and white. Christmas was good for this goal. My mum is working on a hot coloured moroccan patchwork quilt which will be great. I also received a hammock in hot moroccan colourings.

GIFTED  — 9 months ago

tonight a good friend of mine who is moving over 1000 klms away, gave me an enormous glass lantern that is VERY moroccan in style. Its a gorgeous piece and I will have to choose the exact right piece to hang it. It was a lovely gift.

Christmas  — 9 months ago

I am hoping for some Moroccan inspired xmas gifts this year as a few people asked for ideas for gifts to give me. A tea set would be lovely.

throw  — 9 months ago

Get out pinkish satiny throw rug and use on lounge.

no progress lately  — 11 months ago

haven’t been able to make much progress on this goal because I have to be spending money on other things. Tomorrow I am going round some antique shops and I may spot something that fits my theme.

woven basket  — 1 year ago

I found a nice plain woven basket to keep all the cat toys in in the lounge room. Its a good textural piece. Would like others to compliment it as extra storage items also.
