External/Internal Colours and Electricals

Internal/External Selections 

I forgot to write a post about our Colour and Electrical appointment . Better late than never. We had our appointment on 29th August 2012 straight after our Tender appointment. So we started with our colour consultant. She was very helpful. We had to firstly pick the colours to the exterior of our home. I will write about the Electrical selections on a separate post.
