Blinds, screens and tiles.

 Binds from Diaso, the Japanese 5 RM shop.  Equivalent of UK 1 pound shop.  They are sold as accessories for bonsai gardens.

 The screens above the blinds have been completed for half the veranda.

 The builders are still in and the rear of the house,

and downstairs.  Finally, after a lot of trial and error going with DAS Terracotta Clay for the tiles. It is going to take 1,200 tile to go all the way round the house.  Is is taking a day to make 200.  We couldn't find any ceramic tiles of a suitably size or colour.  Fast running out of building materials.  Need a trip to Singapore.
