moving at light speed

the house is really looking fantastic. the floors are all complete with reclaimed flooring upstairs and downstairs. Cabinets from Harbinger cabinets are all installed and look terrific, just need me to decide on what color paint in the kitchen cabinets.  The trim guys started yesterday and have all of the doors installed with the trim around the doors complete. Below is one of the reclaimed doors i got from historic houston before they closed.


The front columns are done and they look amazing.  these trim guys are true artists. 


check out the kitchen cabinets and the crown moulding.

we also got the bead board done on the front entry today and it looks really nice, tomorrow i think they are starting to work on the stairs and finish off the crown moulding in the rest of the downstairs and then that will be complete too. The trim is estimated to be complete on Saturday or Monday at the latest. This weekend i will have to decide on paint colors because that is next and then tile.



i am looking at some different options for countertops and tile flooring in the bathroom and the mud rooms. waiting on pricing for some gray limestone countertops and flooring- if that is too expensive, then i will have to work on some other ideas. 



the dining room will have this craftsman wainscoting along with the natural timber beam above the alcove. it is really moving so fast and it is a lot of fun to see everything that gets accomplished each day.
