Hi there neighbours.
I thought i would share a couple of the action shots from our recent "baby" leaving for its new home in Cambridge.
Its off to enjoy the rural life as a Farm Worker's new cottage.
A long way from the accomodation I remember my family having when working on the land.
We have had wonderful feedback from the occupant about how lovely, warm and enjoyable it is to come home to from a wet and cold day working outdoors.
If you would like to take a look at some of the designs in cabins and units that we construct locally in Silverdale, please feel free to give me a call or text 027 2261733 or alternatively you can email salesbuildz@buildz.co.nz.
Enjoy your day! Cheers Linda

Harmony Circle – Guest Presenter Thursday 16th June (On Zoom)

Hi, my name is Diana, I’m a Waikato girl now living in Perth, Australia.
I have been in the spiritual arena now for about 35 yrs. I am currently a card reader, clairvoyant, mystic, empath, and facilitator.
My style is unique to me. I’ll share my journey and lessons along the way into the spiritual realms, including the importance of self-protection, along with learning to trust what information you are getting, and having the confidence to relay that to people. Also how to understand what is guidance, and what part is your brain trying to fill in the blanks.
My experience has given me a keen understanding of people, what they say and what they don’t. I have a natural ability to see beyond the facade and know what’s really going on inside.
With a natural love of people, I feel I want to help them see all the wonderful possibilities that lie ahead for them, to open them up to their divinity. I see some truly beautiful souls. I am soo blissed!!
I relate well to most people and if they are open, I get huge downloads for them just by engaging in a conversation. Nothing shocks me. I’ve heard it all. Lol
We are all spiritual beings having a human experience, and for some it's very daunting and overwhelming. Been there, done that.
I help to weave a thread through the entanglement of their thinking and fears and doubts to get them out of the black berries and back onto their path. It’s a passion for me. I hear, see, feel messages for the client.
Life has brought me many lessons in love. But the biggest one has been the lesson of loving the self. This is something so overlooked by us, but is the critical keystone to our existence and our purpose. For without loving the self, we cannot love others or accept love from others.
I look forward to meeting you and helping you in any way I can!
** Diana is gifting a free reading with her via zoom in the free draw on the night!
