taking centre stage in the modern world, many people believe that smartphones

you should be worried about.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A digital

When we first built the house nine years ago the downstairs toilet had a 'temporary' vanity. It was made from a sheet of laminex-coated ply, four pine posts (from the original set-out posts for the house) and a second hand sink. Not a pretty thing, and after several years it had started to sag in the middle.<br />
<br />
A few years back we bought four cedar table legs on ebay. The tops were in bad condition, so Russell removed them and made new tops from old cedar window frames.<br />

As we have another old marble-topped washstand in the room, we bought a Corian top in 'raincloud', which has similar colours to the old marble. The Corian is not cheap, and we had to limit the width to 930mm as this is the standard width the Corian comes in - any wider and it would have almost doubled the price.<br />

We started by pulling out the verandah floor, scrubbing the walls and sanding flaking paint. We had some left over floorboards from another house to fix the verandah, and fencing wire for the ballustrade. After a couple of coats of paint it was looking good.<br />
<br />
At our local tip's Treasure Island we found a kid-sized table and chairs that only needed a leg mended. We added some pictures inside (some of which had been done at school by my children!), painted up a piece of ply to make a blackboard, and added some toys. Last thing to be added was a slippery slide (from Bunnings).<br />

We've now created a small grassed area out the front of the house -
lovely rock walls around the garden, a frog pond (old bath!), a 'dry
creek bed' run-off, and a (still-to-be-completed!) mini waterfall with lots of tree ferns.<br />

I'd had this beautiful old oak wardrobe for ages, but like many of its era, it was too shallow for the depth of a coat hanger. For years it was just a storage cupboard,
too impractical for clothes.<br />
<br />
When we moved we deconstructed it, hoping
to put the doors to use again as a built in wardrobe in the house,
while the base would become a window seat. <br />
<br />

We contacted local fine furniture maker (and amazing wildlife artist!) <a href="https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=garry%20rogers%20fine%20wood%20and%20pencil" target="_blank">Garry Rogers</a> to turn the whole thing into a new, practical built-in wardrobe in the sloping walls of our attic bedroom.</div>
</div>
<br />
Garry made up the front frame in his workshop, using the wood from the side of the wardrobe as new drawer fronts, and wood from our property for a new pediment on top.<br />
<br />

<br />
Garry's attention to detail is meticulous. All the doors were refinished and cracks and imperfections fixed.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The finished frame was then built into the sloping upstairs hallway, where it serves as a very practical wardrobe with shoe drawers below.<br />

We're extremely grateful to Garry for bringing this beautiful piece of furniture back to life, and cannot recommend highly enough his fine woodworking skills.

We didn't want it to look like a factory kitchen - more like a collection of interesting furniture.<br />
<br />
The sink area was designed to look like an old marble topped wash stand. It stands out from the adjoining cupboards by about 50mm. Now at last the curtains have gone, and the door and drawer fronts have been installed.<br />

Frames are from leftover grey ironbark, the flooring in the Macadamia Suite. The infill is pressed aluminium, from the panel used behind the stove. The lovely ceramic-look handles are from Bunnings.<br />

The top is Corian, chosen to emulate marble and made to measure. While the top itself is great, the Corian sinks, which we thought would look like fired enamel butler's sinks, are a mistake. They stain really badly and are virtually impossible to get clean.<br />

When we bought the property the original cottage, White Gum - an old forestry workers' cottage moved from Beerburrum - was a little 'rough around the edges'. The best view was from the laundry, the kitchen faced a blank wall, and the bedroom had no view!<br />
<br />
We renovated it in 2003, moving rooms and adding a new bathroom and kitchen.<br />

<br />
Our guests love the cottage and its old world feel, but last year we
decided it was now due for another makeover (aren't we all?!!) that
would update the cottage without losing its charm. <br />
<br />
The first job was to replace the flooring. There was carpet in the living and dining areas, and lino in the kitchen, with a bit of slate tile at the front door.<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">original flooring - carpet, tiles, lino</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
As it's a small area, a uniform flooring throughout this space was preferable. Unfortunately the existing timber floor under the carpet was an uneven, patched-together, un-salvageable mess, so we decided to cover the lot with a floating bamboo floor. Various finishes are available, including an 'aged' finish which suited the style of the cottage.<br />
<br />
Bamboo is a renewable resource- it is a grass and grows very quickly.
Whereas oak takes 120 years to grow to maturity, bamboo can be harvested
in three, regenerates without need for replanting, and requires minimal fertilization or pesticides. The flooring can also easily be laid DIY.<br />
<br />
Russell and a friend laid the floor in a day and a half. The foam underlay overcame the unevenness of the existing timber floor. The slowest part was getting the initial line, after which the boards clicked together quickly. <br />

<br />
It took another day to make and add hardwood skirtings. A couple of rugs, sourced cheaply from <a href="http://graysonline.com/" target="_blank">Grays Online</a>, completed the picture. It gives the whole cottage a finished, unified look and has maintained the old world feel.<br />

<br />
The only hassle was a bit of swelling and lifting when the wet weather hit, which required some trimming. In retrospect, we should have left a little more space around the edges, under the skirting boards, to start with, and no further adjustments would have been required.<br />

But we get a fair amount of wet weather on the mountain, and endless days of rain and high humidity are not conducive to drying multiple loads of sheets and towels.<br />
<br />
Russell built this drying rack which can be lifted by a pulley system up to the ceiling. By adding a dehumidifier in the laundry, we have a solution that can deal with a fair amount of washing in a reasonably short time, and without the expense (and constant loading/unloading) of a dryer.<br />

<br />
A couple of rings on the pull rope, plus cleats on the wall, mean it can be easily held at either the two loading positions (one for short people, one for tall!) or the drying position.<br />
<br />
You need to have a closable laundry for the dehumidifier to be effective. Dehumidifiers run on considerably less power than a dryer. Buying a dehumidifier on Gumtree for less than a third of retail price was a bonus! <br />

We wanted something a bit funky and unusual. Russell had the inspiration to use some green glass high-voltage electrical insulators which he had picked up on one of his field trips.<br />
<br />
We began with standard Bunnings 12-volt lights at $5 each - pretty boring!<br />
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Lights - before</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
We took off the top cover and slipped over some scrap pieces of PVC water pipe. These were various heights, painted matt black and with holes of assorted sizes cut into them to diffuse the light.<br />
<br />
The PVC was topped by the green glass insulators to provide a gentle green glow upwards, but with the majority of the light directed down to the path.<br />
<br />
Cheap, good looking, very funky and great recycling!<br />

Over 130 species of native birds make Mount Glorious their home
as well as a vast array of mammals, reptiles and amphibians, some of which are
on the vulnerable and threatened species list. Turkey’s Nest provides a
significant area of remnant rainforest, including a palm grove, which, in connection with other
properties and National Park in the area, creates a wildlife corridor for
native species.</div>

Land for Wildlife began in South East Queensland in 1998 and
as of March 2013 had over 3900 members protecting over 50,000 hectares of wildlife
habitat. It is a tool to help encourage, link together and inspire landholders
to look after their land for our native wildlife. Providing healthy habitats
for wildlife also has wider benefits such as reducing erosion, connecting
patches of bushland together, improving soil health, improving water quality in
creeks and improving our sense of well-being and aesthetics.</div>

<br />
We sourced the pressed metal panels from <a href="http://www.heritageceilings.com.au/" target="_blank">Heritage Ceilings</a> who have a tremendous range of traditional as well as more modern styles.<br />
<br />
We'd had a quote of $11000 to install the ceilings, so decided instead to do it ourselves. The first job was to paint all 60 panels, plus cable moulding and corner rosettes, with three coats of paint, finishing with a gloss enamel. If you have to paint ceilings, it is certainly way easier when you can do it on the ground before they go up!<br />
<br />
Installation started with the downstairs 'powder room' as it was the simplest - all one style of panel with no border.<br />
<br />

Next was the dining room. This presented some challenges with angles around the bay window, and the additional features of cable moulding and border panels.<br />

All rooms were finished with timber cornice. It pays to spend time filling nail holes and joins then painting them - tedious, but it results in a much more professional finish.<br />
<br />
In all, putting up pressed metal ceilings is not particularly difficult. It requires two people to hold the panels up, and pre-drilling the nail holes helps. Our main concern was that the panels should be well aligned - like tiling, it would look awful if the lines were wobbly. But the panels have ridges on the edge, which allow for a sort of automatic alignment, so it wasn't as difficult as expected. <br />
<br />
It took us about eleven days to put up the three rooms. Given the installation quote we had, that equates to $1000 per day for our work. Better that we usually get!<br />

<br />
We built long narrow beds from corrugated iron (recycled, of course!). Because of the slope they are shallower on one side than the other, but still deep enough for anything we're likely to grow.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
They are filled with a "lasagna" mix of layers of straw, manure, compost, lovely Mount Glorious red soil, and liberal sprinklings of Dynamic Lifter. The whole area is netted to keep out the turkeys and larger birds like bower birds, but the netting will let through the little birds that eat insects.<br />
<br />
So far this year we have harvested beans, broccoli, Asian greens, capsicum, garlic, lettuce, rocket, potatoes and sweet potatoes, snow peas, silverbeet, three types of tomatoes and zucchini, as well as ten or so different herbs. I've bottled loads of tomatoes for use during winter, particularly the small Black Russians, which produced enormous quantities of perfectly formed, fabulously tasty fruit.<br />
<br />
Behind the veggies are three bays for making compost. Further down the hill are two cut-down water tanks, which hold bananas and pumpkins. Strawberries, carrots, asparagus, ginger and eggplant are now coming on. The sweet potato will probably be moved to the slope outside, where it can run wild.<br />

<br />
It's a constant learning experience discovering what works and what doesn't, but I never tire of the excitement of whipping up a meal that's essentially from our garden. And the bonus is I don't have to go shopping nearly as often. More time on the mountain!<br />

For a couple of years I had made do with an old melamine cupboard in the recess which would eventually be the pantry. All the shelves were the same height, and it was very deep, so things got lost!<br />

Russell made shelves from some old recycled floorboards, which were hard and strong. He ran them through the thicknesser first, to take off the old finish. The spacing of the shelves was based on the sizes of what we usually keep in the pantry, and the shelves are in a U-shape so we can walk in and find things without them being hidden at the back.<br />

On the front we added a pair of recycled French doors, and some architrave. The glass is lined with fabric (an old table cloth!) in case the interior ceases to be as beautifully organised as it is now!<br />

The part I was most looking forward to was the island bench, which Russell has just completed.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
I've mentioned <a href="http://turkeysnestmtglorious.blogspot.com.au/2011/10/joys-of-hand-made.html" target="_blank">elsewhere</a> how I prefer hand made items to overpriced commercial products (yes, I know, the economy would not survive if everyone was like me!), and how we enjoy recycling materials. Well this is the ultimate recycling project!<br />
<br />
The legs for the island bench are made from some short scraps of the crap timber that were used to support the loads of timber we had delivered (two 90x45 glued together). The frame is made from bits of 70x35 pine framing left over from the build. In fact one bit was used by the builder in the original markout for the foundations!<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The bench top is made from some black wattle slabs that we had milled
when we cleared some trees for the building. Four slabs are joined with threaded rod to make the top. This was Russell's first go at
doing a slab and what he learned will be put to good use for the other slab
benches that I have lined up for him!<br />

But first, I wanted a finished kitchen!<br />
<br />
When we moved into the house two years ago, we put in the minimum of kitchen to keep us going - just the shells with some dodgy fronts - while we finished important things like the <a href="http://turkeysnestmtglorious.blogspot.com.au/2012/04/rendering-earth-walls.html" target="_blank">earth walls</a>, and the <a href="http://turkeysnestmtglorious.blogspot.com.au/2011/09/rose-gum-cottage-finished-at-last.html" target="_blank">new cottage</a>.<br />
<br />
For Christmas Russell promised me kitchen door fronts - or at least some of them! We've always used Ikea carcases for our kitchens. I realise melamine is not the most eco-friendly of materials, but their system is so practical, and Ikea have a few <a href="http://www.ikea.com/ms/en_AU/about_ikea/people_and_planet/index.html" target="_blank">eco credentials</a>.<br />

The main cupboards and drawers have been faced with recycled hoop pine VJ (wall panelling from old Queenslander houses), part of the stash we've squirreled away in the past for just such projects.<br />

For this reason, I reckoned I deserved a beautiful laundry.<br />
<br />
Ours has earth walls, and some wonderful recycled margin light windows with pink and green glass. When the afternoon sun shines in, it is like a jewel box.<br />

All courses are offered online, and prices are very reasonable. Subjects covered include sustainable design, green building principles, renewable energy, and sustainable waste management.<br />
<br />
While it mainly focuses on businesses trying to reduce their carbon footprint and operate more sustainably, there are also courses aimed at individuals and owner builders. Content Developer James Huddleston says he aims to try and increase the number of courses for owner builders.<br />

A couple of days later we noticed eggs floating on top of the water, and within a week we had dozens of tadpoles.<br />
<br />
We've been feeding them lettuce leaves and watching them grow. Now the tiniest of frogs - no bigger than my thumbnail - are heading off into the forest.

Unlike straw bale, which needs a thick ‘scratch’ coat to fill out the uneven surface, our light earth walls are made in formwork and therefore have a fairly even surface, so need far less render.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1f497d;">The render sticks well to the rough surface of the light earth walls, but we stapled wire onto the parts where there was just timber studs, to help the render to stick there. </span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1f497d;">Where we used <a href="http://www.ortech.com.au/durra-panel"><u>Durra straw panels</u></a> we thought we could just ‘rough up’ the surface to make the render stick. We tried a mallet with nails in it, but in the end we decided that this would be very slow and noisy (i.e. it couldn’t be done on the weekends, when we have cottage guests), so we covered the panels with wire mesh using a staple gun. </span><br />

You may or may not be a fan of <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/money/2011/apr/09/grand-designs-kevin-mccloud">Kevin</a> and his <a href="http://www.channel4.com/programmes/grand-designs/">Grand Designs</a> (I admit to being a real Kevin tragic!), but he has a sensible and refreshingly positive approach to sustainable living. He believes we need to embrace a slower, more enjoyable and gentler way of living that is less taxing on the resources of the planet, but that we don't have to compromise our comfort or lifestyle to do it.<br />
<br />
He also believes that despite our current depletion of the planet's resources, we will be saved by our own resourcefulness and imagination, by returning to good design and craftsmanship, and by embracing a philosophy of sharing rather than wanting everything for ourselves.<br />
<br />
The book offers practical suggestions on both building and retrofitting your home to make it energy efficient, how to shop sensibly and ethically, and what items are worth investing in (and what aren't), as well as looking at what a home offers in terms of social and personal values.<br />
<br />
Kevin McCloud practices what he preaches. His building company, <a href="http://www.habhousing.co.uk/">Hab</a> (It stands for <b><span style="color: #41ad49;">H</span></b>appiness <b><span style="color: #41ad49;">A</span></b>rchitecture <b><span style="color: #41ad49;">B</span></b>eauty.) builds low-cost, affordable and sustainable homes, designed in the belief that they should enrich the environment, create a sense of community and make people happy.Turkey's Nest Rainforest Cottageshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10247316995461221895noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2628959694784239230.post-14714744496739187022012-02-19T18:56:00.000+10:002012-02-19T18:56:40.469+10:00Bunya NutsIt's Bunya nut season, and the massive cones are crashing down every day, spilling scores of nuts onto the driveway.<br />

It's not surprising that the Aboriginals travelled vast distances to take advantage of their bountiful harvest. One large tree can produce an enormous number of nuts.<br />

They taste rather like potatoes, and can be roasted and used in soups. The ground nuts can be used instead of flour in soups, breads and cakes, and also as a pesto. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

<br />
Unfortunately it has been a disaster. Within weeks there were splash marks on the benchtops, and rings where people had left cups, wet dishes or the dishwashing detergent. With the help of our humid climate, these had soon turned to black mould. When someone spilled red wine on the floor - and I have no doubt they hastened to wipe it up - it nevertheless left a red stain.<br />
<br />
A phone call to Cabots technical section revealed that if we wanted to recoat the benches with something else, we would have to sand them back completely to remove all the water-based finish.<br />
<br />
We've now taken out and sanded back both the kitchen bench and the vanity, and refinished them with two coats of matt Estapol followed by Scandinavian oil.<br />
<br />

It was frustrating to have to redo what had already been completed just recently. It's also disappointing to know that the environmentally friendly approach did not produce an acceptable finish.<br />
