A little bit of pretty-pretty

Last week started off like this

for Jason, and like this

for Lisa. Neither got a house built.

But by the weekend we were back to more interesting details. Jason worked on researching and designing the custom leadlight for our front door surround and box bay windows:

Awesome!

And I contributed with the purchase of this baby:

err....I'm referencing the ginormous ceiling mount shower rose (Dexter is just there for scale). Imagine a gently cascading rainshower from the ceiling in the master bathroom. Double awesome!

And for the kids' bathroom:

Quite different to the pink one I grew up with in the 70's.

Other cool stuff that might lead to a house to put the above items in to: the updated preliminary plans were finished and I drove on out to the builder's office to collect them, met with the Keith Richards tshirt-wearing Vicar next door who was totally unfazed by that wayward 30cms previously mentioned and is happy to sign that off in support of our permit application - and the council surveyor thinks the application will get processed within a week and a half rather than the 4 weeks I was told last week - triple awesome!
