Why did you choose your forum name plus photos of our kitchens

[Bedlam]

I am the same and placed the windows so I could always see what is happening unfortunately it has backfired as I hate anyone looking at me in my bathers!

Chookie I love your k itchen, it shows lots of love.
Robyn your entire house looks amazing.
Bedlam, clever lady posting photos.
Fundj, here in WA if you have doors/windows opening onto the pool that don't open you are fine as that is regarded as the fence. We had a pool before we built and had to change the windows to fit the law.

Our 11yr old lab Shelby is a special family member with loads of privileges but she is also very well behaved - we all love her dearly

Nazar,  I'm also a hoarder,  my excuse is that we live a long way from the shops, and have a lot of drop in visitors.

Robyn,  love the atmospheric view from your kit . window.  Very similar to ours except we can't see any houses.  Loce to watch the mist roll up the valley.  Don't enjoy watching the bush fires in the Summer.

Bedlam,  don't worry about the people looking.  At least you are able to wear bathers.  I haven't been swimming for years.  I would like to share with all the other 'Chook Woman" a drawing that my GD did while staying with us during the school hols.  In the center is Claire, she is bending over to feed a Chook some wheat.  While she is doing this a chook lands on her back.  That beautiful person sitting on the steps,  is me.  The thought bubble,  says,  'I am magic".  Every chance she had ,  she went down to the Chook house ,  to play with the "Circus Chooks".

It is truly beautiful Chookie. Something to be cherished.

You should have that framed Chookie!!      Upon re-looking at the collage of the pic I just posted I am not sure that the folded clothes on the dining room table can be classed at atmospheric !!!

Chookie, that is a wonderful drawing definetly need framing

[Frozzie]

chookie yes love the painting...it would be lovely to have such a wall to hand such a large painting....love the colours on it as generally not a big fan of aboriginal type artwork..

robyn and bedlam love the views ad the pools....if we got a pool put in here ti would defiantely have to be heated otherwise there would be no point!!

dede love the photos and the new avatar 

robyn we also have a golden lab..he is 8yo Obi and a young one who is not yet 1 and is a handful..he is a lab and retrreiver cross and is totally black long fur with a white patch in front...both adorable looking but Froz the youngest has been pulling plants out of my garden and also attacking the vegie boxes lately (so not  a happy camper)

Dede, nice to meet you

Claire did a wonderful job of that painting Chookie, I would certainly frame it too.

Nice pics too Mandi.

i love kids artwork and their imagination behind it...very sweet and great memories...i keep alot of my kids artwork and even found a company here that takes your kids artwork and can put it on cushion covers, quilts, frames whatever really....thought it really sweet....my DD is not quite there yet with actual forms lol but DS has an amazing imagination and always is very excited to tell me what the picture is about and I love listening

Oh wow!! LOVE your pantry room Chookie! Nice to see you Southpaw (love that it means lefty - never heard that one before) and dede - wonderful pictures. Lovely to see your kitchen views Bedlam and johnro - I have been wondering with a few photos, "I wonder what's through that door or window." (I must be a stickybeak)
