Week 17 - All wrapped up

This week most of the building was covered in building wrap - the blue stuff. That's about all that happened, but it made it nice and warm inside the house, and shielded us from the winter wind.

We had to let the builders know about some tweaks to the framing - we have succumbed and are putting a TV in our master bedroom, for Netflix. So that means we need to recess the TV by the depth of the stud wall, to avoid looking at the side of the TV and bracket when we walk into the room.

On Friday two chandeliers arrived in crates from the USA. They're the same style of light but different shapes - one for above our kitchen island and one for the dining table. We took them out of the box to ensure the glass bits survived the trip - but a lot of assembly is required so we'll be excited to see them put together on installation day. Until then it's a secret...
