Goodbye July

Some of the railing glass finally came in. It's hard to see, but the 3 panels heading upstairs are now installed (and need to be cleaned).  This is look I was after.

The master bath is taking shape. Slower than expected. Might hire my way out of this one. So far I did the hardi backer board and mudded the seams. The larger the tile, the more time you need to take to get the wall perfectly flat. And a flat wall is hard to come by...

Just imagine all of these walls are going to be tiles, floor to ceiling. Then the shower will be created with tempered glass panels. Then the heated floor and floor tile goes in. Lots to do.

Hello July

Well it's been a while and a bunch of stuff has been updated that is too minor to show. But there are also some items that do warrant some promotion..

Lets start with the lawn.  The grass has started to grow and most of the lawn is covered. Still working on some areas that didn't seem to take. But it's better than just mud.

My first and last upholstery project is now 95% complete. This chocolate suede is a nice covering for those secret storage area of the living room. The only remaining work is the back panel of each door needs to be finished. But I think it turned out pretty good.

The living room gets a rug and a coffee table. What a change that makes.  The rug was purchased, the coffee table was made (several years ago). It's a nice area now.

And then there was the 'modern fireplace'. Still under construction. But it's main vertical column is complete, with the addition of some nice formica material.
