Easter long weekend - what have you got planned?

The Easter long weekend is fast approaching and I even managed to get the Thurs and Tues off so it's 6 days of freedom for me :smile:

 

What have you got planned?

 

While I'm hosting a family feast, an easter egg hunt for my kids and a pool party with mates - I'm making the most of the free time to knock off a few projects.

 

1 - Ripping out the carpet in my Master and replacing with engineered floorboards.

2 - Replacing/installing wooden benchtop in laundry so it runs from wall to wall (approx 3m) rather than just a standalone unit. A new sink and mixer will also go in and I'll redo the splashback with subway tiles.

3 - Repaint the front of my house with a couple of greys and a feature door.

 

I'll do a post for each of the projects - looking forward to it!

Things planned includ getting under the house to finish off installing the underfloor insulation and then getting the hallway painted after repairing (for the second time) a part of the ceiling where the roof had been leaking.

Now while they are planned there is no guarantee if any of them will be completed :smile:

I hope to get the rest of the materials I need this week and then on Easter weekend, I plan to make a small walk in green house.

Keen to see if I can grow stuff over winter and keep other things alive.

Nice one @MrFreeze. My wife is currently asking for underfloor insulation now that the weather is turning cooler. Let me know how you go with it.
