Sneak Peek

All kinds of fun stuff has been happening lately ... here's a peek ....

Colton and Valur playing on top of the mountain of dirt.

Colton and I brought all the doors out to the house and set them in the jambs.  This is about 1/2 of them.

Deck stairs were built yesterday, railings on ... back deck almost done

Trim started today in the garage... seemed weird to do all this fuss on the garage windows and doors.

Laundry room cabinets Preston built.  The red one will have the galvanized tub basin converted to a sink.  The middle one will hold laundry baskets.  The right one is Annie's bed.  It will have a cushion inside.

French doors between the entry and living room.  I built the jambs myself!  Preston stained and poly'ed the doors.

1/2 bath trimmed with door installed and vanity ... it was one we had in the old house.  I bought the dresser and Preston converted it to a sink vanity.  The trim will be painted.  It looks funny because it's short pieces of wood that have been finger jointed into boards.

Front door trimmed

Kitchen cabinets.  Preston built these.  The center one if for the oven/microwave.  The adjacent ones will have doors on the bottom and shelves on the top.

Here is more of the kitchen... the frig and stove are on this wall.  The black cabinet is the island.

View of the French doors from the living room.  The other door goes to the basement.

More cabinets Preston made.  These will go in the mudroom.  The are just like the blue ones in the kitchen.  One of the bases will be Valur's bed.

Here's a peek at the floor we put in the laundry, mudroom and 2nd floor bath.  It's luxury vinyl tile which is a hard, PVC-like material.  It's very easy to clean ... a great place for mudroom & dogs!
