OK. The house is coming along......slowly. Not really much to report from last week. I thought I would post a little update anyway (on the good and bad).
GOOD: the garage has been cleaned up, it was the dumping ground of construction debris and left-over lunches (since March). It was getting really stinky and there were a million flies, now it is all gone!!!
GOOD?: This is our fixture in the entry way. I can't make my mind up if the finish is oil-bronze or antique bronze?? What do you think??? It is the correct fixture, just not sure if the finish is right?
BAD: Here is the central vac system (installed) that we never requested.....Well....it's here to stay now, the hoses are in the Master closet at this time. I'll spare you a picture of them, just take my word for it.
GOOD: Front door handle. This is front door #2, it was just recently installed so it is not stained yet. Front door #1 suffered a blow by something resulting in a huge chunk out of it during construction, so it had to be replaced.
BAD: Good thing I haven't gotten emotionally attached to front door #2. As you can see, the door was cracked during the handle installation, so once front door #3 is installed, I'll introduce you to it!!
GOOD: All interior knobs look like these.
GOOD: All cabinet hardware looks like this.
GOOD: Glass for Master Shower.
BAD: Here is a pic of the Master bathroom mirrors. (the trim has not been stained to match the cabinets yet). Problem is that they are too tall and our fixtures can't fit over them. This will have to be redone.
GOOD: This is the girl's bathroom mirror (minus stain). See-there is room for their fixture!
GOOD: Hardwood floors were installed.
GOOD: Gutters were installed.
BAD: Guttering was NOT installed over bay. This will need to be completed.
I am enjoying these posts about your house so much! It was always a dream of mine to design and build a home, it may or may not be a reality in the future, so in the meantime, I can live vicariously through you ;)
