Day 132 - 06/26/2007

Wow...what a week and it is only Tuesday.

The metal roof is complete, our front porch columns are installed and our front door is stained. With the exception of the garage doors, gutters and some paint on the columns, the exterior of the house is complete.



Here is a close-up of the front porch...you can really see the columns, roof and front door from here. Don't forget you can click on the image for a larger version.


Oh yeah...and today we got cabinets. All of the kitchen cabinets, the master vanities and the upstairs vanities are installed along with the sink/counter-tops for the master bath and upstairs bathrooms.

The stain color we selected turned out to be exactly what we wanted. The cabinets are dark, but not too dark. There is quite a bit of red in the stain, so this lightens the cabinets. The counter-top shop will be out this week to make a template and will deliver the counter-tops in the next two weeks.




The painters have been busy as well. You can see that they have added more paint to the tray ceiling and began trimming the walls. Hopefully, by Friday, they will have the first coat of paint on all of the walls.


Here is Mandy's vanity. We chose to build her a corner cabinet that sits on top of her counter. There is an electrical outlet inside this cabinet. This will allow Mandy to leave her hair dryer inside this corner unit and plugged in. It is a large step from the cabinet and counter-top space that we currently have.


This is one of the upstairs bedrooms. They have the wall color in the room as well as the closet.


This is half of the Jack-and-Jill bathroom upstairs. We don't have a linen closet upstairs, so we decided to have one built with the rest of the cabinets.


This is a shot of the other half of the Jack-and-Jill bathroom. We chose a brushed nickel hardware for this. The hardware in our bathroom and in the kitchen is very dark, so we decided to have some fun with this.
