Dining Light

I'm not having success getting good pictures of the space with my phone. The dining space is directly opposite the kitchen.

We have a single pendant and a bunch of recessed cans in the area.


Main Bath

Got the privacy covering on the window - it turned out really nice - and the bathroom is still blindingly bright. Its' lovely, but these aren't very good pictures.

I was worried about the size of the mirror, but that turned out well too.



Just About Done (Kitchen)

So much has happened in the last week, I can't keep up with posts or pictures. Anyway, the house is more or less done. Carpet won't be installed for another week (at least) but that's really it.

Here are some finished kitchen pics. We really love the way it turned out.

Kitchen (Lights)

Our house is beginning to look like a home. I stopped by early this morning to drop off some stuff, and flipped on the kitchen puck lights.

Some pictures in early light:

A Lot is Happening

The floors are finally in, although they got covered up before I could get a good picture. We used reclaimed fir for the floors. I won't soon forget how the ever-present moisture almost torpedoed our project.

They were installed two weeks ago. I definitely breathed a lot easier after that.

Once the floors the done, things really started to pick up. The kitchen came in, the base board, window trim, and the stair container were all completed.

Painting started this week. We picked white (surprise!) for all the walls.



The Deck

Deck was all assembled last week. We chose tight knot cedar which ought to last about 15 years or so as long as we re apply protective coating every two years.

We're planning on using the left over material for plant containers.

Not really sure how we'll be using this space, but it looks and feels great. We have water and gas running up to it and a few overhanging trees. I have a feeling I'll be spending a lot of time up there.
