Part two - a happy ending.

The building work is finished in time for the holiday.

To recap, the space as it was before


and after, as it is now


I love it, as you make your way towards it there is a powerfully evocative smell of new wood.   The fact that it has been a wet and cold couple of weeks and yet it was still finished on time, is something of a building trade miracle.



Thank you for stopping by in 2012, and taking time to leave your thoughts and comments, it is much appreciated.  Wishing you and yours a very merry Christmas.

    Looks fabulous and I love the smell of new wood, too? Shame to lose the swing though! Have a great Christmas.

      Thank you VR, we didn't lose the swing, just the amount it can be swung :)

    Ok, I am officially green with envy! I think if my office looked as good as that, I would have a hard time leaving! And finished on time? That’s practically unheard of! Happy New Year to you!
