Thanks guys for all your input. I am loving that Emily Henderson room and that contemporary/mid modern century room! I am after a light and bright space and I do love the greige trend - just not sure how I can do this considering all the beige tile and cabinetry in the kitchen. Can I transition from cool undetone to warm in an adjoining room?

@jazz jazz , Hi , first off from my point of view , I understand you about huntsmen , 46 yo male here and I'm poop scared of them !!! , my mate on the other hand will pick them up and relocate them to tree :) . I understand what you say too about the tram part that your house part is priority first. I was just curious to maybe finding out if you eventually planned to "show" the tram off , either family or friends might be interested in information about the tram that you can talk about , that was my main reason sort of for posting. Any information about it I can gladly pass on. Now about the Real Estate person saying 94 or 96 , if that meant the number then I could narrow it down. Number 294 is in South Aust. still in operative condition where as number 296 was sold off even before I was born so if anything remains of it in any shape I'd be surprised. Above the saloon door in top photo on the top arched frame , hard to see , and I don't know how to pin point it , is black numbering , if your saloon door area is intact , you will locate the car number there. On the front of the apron the number may be located too but your one has been painted on already and one can hardly expect another to scratch off a bit of paint to reveal a silly number :). As I do with everyone I more than respect privacy , but one other way I could possibly check on a number would be the property locale , generalised area as such like Ballarat or Bendigo , don 't like asking that though. I take it that it's in Vic , maybe country vic , if East I have a pic of number 260 at Noojee that was set up with a house in such manner. Other than that my mate likes beer and his ears pricked up when I read your post out to him. Good luck with it all , Green and Cream Color scheme if going for a historic look or Chocolate and Cream as those were the 2 Color schemes W class trams have had. Old Chap.

Hello I think I would stay with the white window frames and have the eaves white or a pale, pale soft grey. The colour of the eaves will reflect back into your rooms, so keeping the eaves light- coloured will help the interior. Incorporating the eave colour in decorations in the garden will unify the picture. For example if you chose pale grey for the eaves, and pots in that colour (with dark red foliage plants ) the scheme would 'flow'. Cheers

Well done, it is great to see pieces of quality furniture being re-purposed and not just thrown away. Not to take away from the work of a professional upholsterer but I recently redid a bedhead with some careful planning and a heavy duty staple gun. Turned out great!
