Thank You!

To everyone who is reading the blog and making such kind comments, thank you! If there is anything that you would like to know or pictures that you would like to see, make a comment on the blog and I will do my best to answer your questions or post the photos that you would like to see.

Work is continuing, the template for the granite in the kitchen was done today, the cornice was added to the cabinets, more tweaking to the doors soon, master closet to be installed by Closets By Design in Franklin to be done this Friday.

Kitchen Cabinets Have Doors

Here are some of the photos of the kitchen cabinets with doors, pulls and knobs. They're coming along, still need some tweaking to the doors so that they will close properly. The drawers appear to be perfect, and the cabinet people are to come back and add a cornice to match the Shaker cornices that are original to the house so that they go well together.

The Wallpaper's Up

Doug Haley Wallpaper hung the wallpaper last Tuesday and it is beautifully done! I would recommend him and Michael, his partner to do any one's wallpaper, they are truly masters of the art. Here are some photos of the foyer, border in the Living Room and the Guest Bath.Older posts have pictures of the unpapered walls. I have also included a shot of the decorative tile in the guest bath. It is not yet grouted.

Duchess, Read Her Post

She disappeared...see her post on this blog under the July section!

Where are the Old Pictures?

Some people have asked me how to find the older posts. Just go to the right of the blog screen and click on the "Blog Archive" section. It will give you an idea of how the project has progressed.

I am sorry that I do not have some very old fashioned shots to show that were made before digital (yes, about 10 years ago), but if you ever visit us in person, you may see them then...I promise not to torture you with making you look at them if you don't want:)

Kitchen Cabinets with Pulls and Knobs

Here are some photos that I took today of the kitchen cabinets with their doors, knobs, and pulls. The doors still need to be adjusted which will happen next week now that our Geothermal is working properly (HALLELUJAH!!!!!!!) The cabinet installers redid the sofit so now the cabinets on that side are centered with both the wall and the sofit...GO SC Cabinets! I plan to call the stone fabricators Monday to set a time and date to do the template and do installation of the granite!

Also, as an aside the wall papering will start next week! Doug Haley will be doing the job and I hear he is fabulous!!!

Laughing Fox Farm, here we come!

Kitchen Cabinets

This is a photo of the cabinets with doors located above where the stove will go. As you can see the knobs and pulls still need to be added and the cabinets may need to be moved slightly. They have been placed off center from the sofit because the sofit is too close to a door leading into the dining room and it would make the cabinets too close to the door. That's just one of those remodeling/restoration bumps in the road. But possibly between some paint camouflage and the cornice that needs to be added to the top of the cabinets, moving them can be avoided. That will ultimately be decided by Andy as it troubles him more than me...I am so ready to be done and in!!
