All the Trimmings

The end is in sight! The majority of the trim work is complete and the painters start spraying tomorrow! I'm holding the baby as I type one handed, so I'm short on words. The pictures pretty much speak for themselves.

I do want to note the newel post at the staircase. The original stair parts were in the attic and the "stair guys" were able to salvage two posts and turn them into one. It's beautiful! The stairs themselves, not so much. They still need to be stripped of the yucky carpet glue.





Thanks for stopping by! And thanks to Susan for hosting Met Monday!

    What a treasure to be able to piece together from the old house. It looks amazing and will only become more beautiful as you finish. I also adore your fireplace! What a great reno. Makes me so nostalgic. If you have a sec do stop by and see my new curtain. Jane
