The Life for Me

The installers began the work on Saturday, but they will need to return to complete some finishing details and install the hearth (same material cut to fit). The maple/ubatuba combination turned out really nice. It even works great with the green walls.

Say that ten times fast... Craig, from Riner's Cabinet Shop, delivered and installed the cottage cabinets today. They're made from wormy maple (same as the house) and have a clear coat finish. They look great. It was a bit tricky to get everything into such a small space, but the floor-to-ceiling size, pull-out shelves and lazy-susan should help to maximize the usefulness of the space.     

Sorry about the poor image quality... All the window and door trim has been installed and painted. Tim - you have done an amazing job on the whole building. Thank you. Kitchen cabinets are being delivered and installed this weekend. Tile work will begin this week and roll into the first part next. The only thing after that will be the counter tops. I've been told that templating, cutting of the granite and installation will be done within two weeks after cabinet install. Keep your fingers crossed.

I've gotten behind in my picture taking. This shot shows the wormy-maple floor in the loft after it was sanded, but before the poly went down. The ceiling has also been completed. New shots to come shortly...
