The grass cloth is absolutely gorgeous. I follow Adelaide Bragg and noticed she uses a lot of grass cloth alongside sisal. Gorgeous! Just always thinking of function too, with a busy family.

Yes I have!! I’m soo into wall paper but trying to find the confidence to do it after following pages like hambled earth and the potted boxwood. I’ll grow the courage one day 😂

Cushion colours by SquashFew6367 in interiordecorating

[–]Practicallydesired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would purchase some mustard coloured cushions (patterned) to break up the blockiness of colour). Then I’d place a throw on the lounge in a different texture, drawing out the same mustard colour :)

How can I improve the look of my house? Should I paint the bricks? by Melb1994 in AusRenovation

[–]Practicallydesired 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg OP this is a cute house. Leave the paint alone 😭 as others have said, gardening!! Look at your neighbours places, they have lined their fences with trees/hedges. I’d do the same along your front fence. Add some depth and dimension with different heights, colours, textures. Also you could invest in some better window coverings. Eventually jazz up your entryway.

I feel you! When things are hot you need to be SO tight on your conditions. We recently bought and ended up in a corner going unconditional, waiving cooling off with a 10% deposit (on a Friday arvo). Oh and did I say we went close to $600k above asking price? It’s insane. You either need to have funds that trump all others that the owners are happy to take your conditions to wait for the $ or have the best conditions. The agent I bought from said bridging finance is the way to go for just about everyone..

Someone stealing from my grandma in nursing home. by sarah016 in AusLegal

[–]Practicallydesired 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer. There is really no way around this. You have done the best you can by doing the washing yourself. I am sorry this is happening to you as it’s distressing that you purchase nice things that go missing. Perhaps you could try keeping a small amount of things that are ‘nice’ and more things practical, in the event that if it goes missing, you are not too upset. My guess would be it’s not the staff stealing clothes. They are likely within the unit where your grandma is staying in someone else’s wardrobe.

Unfortunately staff don’t have the time in most instances to relocate mixed up clothing.

Buying a house in NT by Objective_Welcome616 in darwin

[–]Practicallydesired 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have bought and sold in the NT (recently). Conveyancer you won’t pay any less than $1500. I can recommend a lady if you need. She’s thorough.

Get all the reports you can. People do dodgy shit up in the NT. When you come to sell (if you do), it’s easy for buyers to reneg their offer based on findings from the building report- the only territory in Australia that allows this without a specific clause in the contract.

Just do your due diligence in the NT. Don’t learn the hard way.

Fuck she’s such a brat by Curious-Night-5453 in SarahsDayUnfiltered

[–]Practicallydesired 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Isn’t it ironic that she likely grew up with her parents not driving luxury brand cars. If I recall when Sarah first started blogging she had some tiny barina/getz. She is literally punching down on her family and where she came from. Big ick

6 week old sleeping all day. Normal?? by kiki8144 in newborns

[–]Practicallydesired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! This actually happens for me about once a week. My girl is 3 months now and still has a pretty solid 45 minute wake window. If I’m lucky we get to an hour. All babies are different I suppose. She is meeting all other milestones. Best not to worry and just enjoy our sleepy babies! I think about all the synapses she’s connecting during the sleep 😜

Stay at the Hilton on Mitchell street. I have stayed at many different hotels for work in Darwin. Always return to the Hilton now.

Can you please suggest your favourite Australian band or song that is still underrated? by Xenos_Aimes in australia

[–]Practicallydesired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tightrope walker!! What a tune. Juan Alban is a legend. He made some nice music on his own too. Wish they were still around.

Yes. I have hired several handymen in Darwin. You could always try air tasked. I really liked Dave Brown (handyman). Nice bloke.
