Bedroom flooring installed!

This is where I'll be waking up:

And a cool view from upstairs on the balcony:

Doors Arrived

We've received the interior doors...here's a sneak peek!

Hardwood Flooring - Day 1

Upstairs "catwalk" or bridge connecting the two sides of the house now has hardwood flooring...isn't it pretty - I like how "random" it looks. Also it has a lot of distressed areas so little nicks and scratches won't ruin the floors later on. Also, a little unusual, the flooring consists of 3, 5, and 7 inch wide planks...cool, huh?


On another note, here are the light and fans you see at eye level when walking on this balcony. Chandelier is in the foyer and the two ceiling fans hang over the living room.

Trim on Stairs started!

The wood on the treads is not installed yet, but some of the major boards are in place on the trim for the stairs -- starting to shape up!
