Yesterday, I was invited to the home of the lovely Jenny of The Five Year Project, and we spent the morning chatting and sharing renovation stories over a cuppa. Jenny is as warm and friendly in person as she is on her blog, and I fell head over heels for her beautiful Queenslander, which she and her husband are in the process of renovating. For those of you who haven't had the pleasure of a visit to her blog, here's just a little snippet of what you'll find there:
we had morning tea at this gorgeous table, which Jenny refinished herself
would you look at the domed ceiling - it's even more stunning in the flesh
...nothing like a great before and after, is there?
Jenny's very talented husband built this kitchen island himself
her lovely, renovated master bedroom
hand-painted stripes in Jacob's room
Thanks for a great morning Jenny, and if you haven't already, pop on over to Jenny's blog - you can see all of the fantastic befores-and-afters on show.
Also, thanks everyone for the lovely comments on yesterday's post - you guys are the best. Can't say it enough.
Have a great day,
