We've reached May 14th - Day 199 of Project 713 and things have really ramped up. A second coat of exterior paint and the crew put the second floor windows back in with a fresh coat of the Iron Ore paint.
They also did the other trim work in the Ethereal White, which almost looks cream-colored when compared to the Extra White for the rest of the house.
They also were able to get to the first coat of paint on the French doors in the rear of the house.
Moving back inside, I can now show you some of the other cool fixtures like the chandelier in the upstairs hallway. You can see the painters were also busy patching up some of the nail/screw marks and blemishes on the walls with spackle, in order to sand them down and then put a second coat of paint on.
Here's a shot of the light fixture in Grace's bathroom. As you can see she has the 'Bling' look to match her sparkly wall in her shower.
The electricians also installed the cool pink light fixtures up above Grace's loft. The pink and green match Grace's sheets, comforter and pillows.
And finally, last but not least, the glass guys were in and put in the glass walls for the shower in the master bathroom. I'm not exaggerating when I say that my old bathroom which used to be directly below our new master, was only a bit bigger than that shower stall. I'm talking the ENTIRE bathroom. A shower, sink and toilet. It was like a phone booth. Nothing like a little more breathing room, eh?
They also put in the mirror over our double vanity, but I figure you know what a mirror looks like. Hard to believe, but there's still quite a bit of work left, and we still have to get the hardwood floors sanded, stained and sealed before we can get our appliances installed.
Onward!
