Another busy day working on the house. Doug finished all of his work today, so the rest is up to us.
Here are today's developments.
Living Room Beam:
More staining that needs to be done...
This is the beam in the old sunroom:
Gee, that probably needs a coat or two of stain as well.
Doug also trimmed out the new window.
Did I mention we have some staining to do??
We also had to replace our front door because the one we put in two years ago had split and warped :(
This is what we went with:
OMG! It needs to be stained!
(Note: if anyone is looking to purchase stock, I recommend looking into Minwax. Their sales are about to skyrocket!!)
It also got a bit more crowded in here today. In the middle of the new door going in, the nice guys from Express Kitchens stopped by with our cabinets. This is just how I envisioned my living room looking when we started this project. Don't you love the classy curtains?
(Oh yeah. Doug also took the handrail off the stairs yesterday. THAT was fun at 4 am!)
Well, that's pretty much what went on here today. Except that I also primed and painted the new exterior siding that resulted from the smaller window in the sunroom. It's nice to have that done before the bad weather hits.
The plan is to start cabinet installation in the next few days. Stay tuned!
