Not sure how many of you shop at Bunnings and see ( or buy) The Handyman Magazine they have lining their checkouts??
..anyway - they run a DIYer of the Year competition and I entered our ensuite that took us 8months to get completed with these three little monkeys helping.
Loads of blood sweat and tears [and the odd bit of take away and a few beers ;)]

...Round of applause for your fellow hubber please!! :cheerleader2::smiliedance::cheerleader1:
(unashamed brag!!:D)

not sure how many entries they had..but they said they "sifted through scores of entries" to find the 6 finalists. :hyper:


I'm working on the kitchen at the moment..so might make it in time for next year too:laughing:

I really love it! ...would love to do it for a living - just buy old houses and do them up and either sell or rent.

You'll have to do a 'renovation tips' spin off!! We are thinking of getting a bit of a fixer upper. Please tell me it's all worth it in the end!!

Good luck with your reno Dancing in the Rain... something needs professions - like electrical and plumbing...but most other stuff is fun and easy to learn via magazine, books and youtube vids ;)
