Turning house into home

When we bought the land in 2008 -
When we bought the land in 2008.  Jason standing at the back left corner and Dad at the back right.

In 2010, we built our back fence.  Joint venture with our neighbour.
And we cut wood to store for our future fireplace.



We camped one night while the bonfire flamed.

And we had breakfast in the morning while enjoying the fresh morning air.

The slab had been laid.

The birds come to watch us build.  I'm sure they are not happy about us invading their valuable space.


We moved in on a horrible wet day.

And watched as the rain continued to pour.

But we got dry and set up house.

We finally got the grass laid and can enjoy our sunrise every morning.

The blinds went up in the bathroom just last weekend (2-Apr)

The rays filtering through the front door gave us a spectacular display.

Our home at night.

Our bedroom, although not yet complete.

Sabai
  • Attached to the bodice piece
  • Fine lacing on very soft material


Skirt (pha sin)
  • Cream / gold in color
  • As soft a material as possible
  • Small, fine pattern (like below)


  • Small, fine pattern (NOT like below)


  • The na nang not to be in it's own patter; the entire material should be of same pattern all around.
  • The waist section to be embroidered (no belt)

Finally step up blog!

Now wait for the expert to create a nice homepage for me.  Luckily I know an expert.
