It's hard to show on camera, but they have really thick wooden panes. The options to replace these were quite ugly or undoable. My hand is so much better. It still aches sometimes, but I can use it now. Have a wonderful week, and thank you for visiting. xoxoButterfly 8)(8 Bungalow https://www.blogger.com/profile/12407401010841427366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1961665810703474647.post-69288820367167557442015-03-30T08:01:03.627-07:002015-03-30T08:01:03.627-07:00Hi, I hope your hand is fully recovered.

A c...That is unfortunate that they did not finish. A couple of years ago, my spouse installed new baseboards when he ripped out the carpet. He took them down for this installation, and now he has to repaint and install. (In past homes, it added quite a bit to the cost, so he thought he would do it.)The installers did do the six feet of kitchen that is builtin, which is nice, because he won't have to mess with how the quarter round and baseboards meet there. He is going to start today. The production of the glazing was interesting. An older man came with a crew that were suppose to help him. Basically they got nothing done the first day, and the older man removed the mess they were making. The older head man spoke to my spouse and told my spouse how to take off the old paint. He stapled the glass so they would hold until he could come back alone. Fortunately there was no lead anywhere according to the tester.) So my spouse removed the old and did a great job. (The stuff we do to keep things the way they were!) The older man came back the next week alone, because it goes faster alone. ( He said it is difficult showing young people anything these days.) It took him into the early part of afternoon. He installed the specially ordered tempered in on the bottom, and replaced the new glass that the crew cracked and scratched as they installed it the week before... Oh my! At least we don't have to do this for a long time now.

We are almost down to the last of the big projects.I don't know if you know that this place was a complete fixer-upper, yet we intend to stay. That's why I've just done what I wanted in the kitchen. We have no desire for a large home again. This is just more practical is so many ways as I know you understand.Butterfly 8)(8 Bungalow https://www.blogger.com/profile/12407401010841427366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1961665810703474647.post-26137464253731560652015-03-29T08:59:16.243-07:002015-03-29T08:59:16.243-07:00That's going to be us.

When we had our hardwood floors refinished on the second story, I made sure that the finishers would also install new quarter-round molding so everything would be done when they left. Apparently there was a misunderstanding and that job fell onto my shoulders. There's still one bedroom left to finish and it's been over 2 years! Your windows are lovely. I know how hard it is to find skilled people to reglaze windows as it's a dying art, but they did a nice job on yours. It's all looking good!Vickie @ Ranger 911https://www.blogger.com/profile/12847126296813987337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1961665810703474647.post-19917116408524498142015-03-29T07:27:19.479-07:002015-03-29T07:27:19.479-07:00Beautiful Su.

Next home I so would do a grayish like wood, you are so right it will look so French, rural French and ever so rustic in a primitive way.many pieces you place down on this floor will look great, I could even see a black and white checked floor in a kitchen working with this floor, you could even add area rugs with the checked pattern, or shirt stripped, even faded worn and aged vintage. You are so not going to regret this choice, and I can't wait to see more of the area with furnishings placed here and there.<br /><br />Amazing look!<br /><br /><br />Thank you Su, for taking the time to grace your beauty and comment over at my place.<br /><br />See you soon<br /><br />Xx<br />Bisous<br /><br />Doré Burlap Luxehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16134718817693134037noreply@blogger.com
