Very very pretty. <br /><br />Now to get the rest of the trim painted, the entry way doors replaced and hallway rerocked... and then FLOORS!! <br /><br />Thank YA JEZUZ! urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:rookhaven:1041 2006-05-06T18:19:39Z 2006-05-06T18:19:39Z So we have Trim!! We have the outer windows trimmed and the inner windows about 3/4th of them done. I have ordered a beautiful french door that led to another door that am going to order for the front. I spent way more than I should have. LEO! HELLO!<br />This also took much longer than it should have. Home Depot can suck a lot.<br /><br />It feels good to have some of this coming forward. I will be painting this week or next week and enjoy having the colors match. I am battling between my inner child that wants to go all modern, my classic side who just wants thing to be beautiful and peaceful. I need 2 houses! :) Perhaps I'll make a special room my inner child room. My office into a peaceful healing place and my living room a classic style.

Woot Woot! <br /><br />Here is the pantry door design. We took what was effectively a corner with a lot of stuff piled up and made a cute little room. <br /><br /><img src="http://www.stallionintl.com/images/paneltype/glass_mahogany.jpg" alt="Pantry Door design"><br /><br /><br />cyphersmith put in the groovy shelving for the washer and dryer. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:rookhaven:502 2005-08-17T05:54:35Z 2005-08-17T05:54:35Z A Gaelic Blessing Of Peace This is a documentation of the work we are doing to remodel our house. As all remodeling is a blessing and a curse, you get to hear about both! <br /><br />Woot!
