Soooo... very..... close....

The work inside is winding down so the contractors have moved onto the back porch. For the last six months or so, we haven't been able to step out the back door (the old porch was torn down and it was a bit of a step down to the ground).

Now they've framed in the floor and the roof of the new porch!



Here's the underside of the new porch roof:



The upstairs is all painted now. The tile guy (Rob) is currently working on finishing up the tile soon.

You can see the remnant marble slab that they put in for the countertop.

Yay!

Getting close! (we hope)

Here's the upstairs. The lovely hardwood floors are covered up in preparation for painting the trim.



The bathroom. The sconces were originally way too low so Mike moved them up for us as they bothered him like that. We're getting a custom cabinet and a piece of remnant marble is getting cut to fit on top.



New stairs! I'm so glad I got talked into agreeing to move the stairs. They're WONDERFUL. They new
banister is just lovely (and surprisingly complicated).



There was some collateral damage done to our existing bathroom (a support beam had to go right through where our original medicine cabinet was, so that had to be replaced with one that wasn't inset into the wall (and moved to the right to allow door clearance). We repainted with a golden yellow which actually looks lovely with the bright white contrasting over it.

I'm planning on sewing a sink skirt, to cover the plumbing (but I can't find the &^%@#$% iron, so that little project will have to wait a while).

So, coming right along!
