1. Blue colored egg shell filled with homemade chocolate, from Martha Stewart. To make project easier you can simply use a cooking chocolate of your favourite type.






2. Tie-dye and tissue-paper Eggs from Miyspirit via Now Public. Super easy and super cool eggs!








3. Dyed Paper Stickers Eggs from Home Life. This is a perfect kids project. But check how lovely the eggs look.

Project of the Month - March 2

Just finished work at this Bronte penthouse. It was more then just a regular painting job – we removed & disposed old decorated cornices and skirtings throughout, re-rendered walls were cornices were, and painted the penthouse inside out.

Project of the Month - March 1

This is another weekend job in the office building – this time in Parramatta. All walls were painted white. Obviously, such painting job can only be done when carpark is empty. So for everyone’s convenience we scheduled it to the weekend. 3 levels were completely painted in 2 days!

"Kilimanjaro for Ovarian Cancer Cure" completed

Thanks from the bottom of our harts to all people who supported and sponsored our “Kilimanjaro for Ovarian Cancer Cure” event!

We just returned from the expedition, still exhausted. We both made it to the top (just!). Honestly, if it was not for the charity and we did not get supprt of so many people we would quit few hundred meters before the summit. (I know it sounds like a cliché, but it is very much try!) The air is just so thin here! But our pain and tidiness will pass. We are so happy we made to the summit. Thanks everyone for supporting our cause and giving us this extra motivation!

I’ll set up a slideshow to report back to all our sponsors & supporters. But in a meantime I’ll share with you some of my favourite pictures from the expedition.
