On Wednesday, I finally got out to the lot (thought I think I really ought to be calling it "the house" now) where work on trim, the stairs and tile.
Work was progressing on the stairs. The stringers are in (on the side supporting the steps) with most of the risers in and a few of the treads. The riser on the bottom step isn't done yet as it's going to stick out and a little bit for the bottom post with a slight curve in the handrail into the great room. There's a discussion of stair construction terms in this
DIY article.
While we're not putting in crown molding anywhere (the vaulted great room would screw it up) we are installing chair rails in the dining room.
More chair rails in the dining room.
The baseboard trim was finished in the great room.
Tiles were delivered. These are for the master bathroom.
Close up of the master bathroom tiles.
A rubber mat is down in the shower as a vapor barrier on the floor. (
How to tile a shower)
Tiles for the Jack-and-Jill bathroom: "Moss" colored.
It felt like I hadn't posted an outside picture in forever, so here's a view from the woods' edge. You can just make out the front covered entry on the left.
