This blog diary is about our mosaic life at Frangipani House; art, mindfulness, travel, walking with our little dog on the beach, the beauty in everyday life. Let the beauty of what you love, be what you do.
Our new rooms...
I am so excited, finally our renovations are underway for our new rooms to massage in, and teach massage and dance... how exciting!!!

Has he got contacts I don't? OK stupid question... well yes, obviously, really... please Kevin tell me your secrets of how to get things done on time, and to budget, because I really, really, really, want to know. Stop asking if they'll get it done on time, because the rare ones that manage to, well, that is just one step short of a miracle in my books, and let we everyday renovators know; 'how to do it'.
How a simple change can make such a difference.
