Week 24 – Let the painting begin

This week the contractors began the painting.  As color goes on the walls the ceilings in the Great Room and Dining area get a coat of flat black paint, this way if the recycled southern yellow pine should move you will not see the primer behind it.

Note: Pat and I moved all of the reclaimed pine over from the barn this past weekend to make room in the barn for the construction of the pantry shelves and cabinets for great room, office and laundry.

The Wolf composite decking arrived today (7/26/2017.) Hopefully we can get the pedestals completed, we were waiting on the decking, so we can get the condensers installed and we can fire up the AC to get the place climatized and then the finishing can begin. The doors and moulding arrived this week.

Hardwood floors are in transit.

 

 

Living room painting – Done

We finished up the cottage living room painting, and just in time furniture is scheduled for delivery tomorrow.  Unfortunately it has IMG_2617stared to snow here and the truck is coming from Richmond so its anybody guess if they will call and cancel the delivery.

Were supposed to meet with the Structural Engineer tomorrow as well to get the final drawing for the Bunkie so we can begin the process of getting bids.

We also have Metrocast Cable people scheduled for Thursday, they are a bit more resilient so they may show up.

This is a bad year for old man winter to rear his ugly head when we are attempting to get so many thing completed over the winter.

Painting to begin 2/17/2015

Were beginning to paint the common spaces and the kitchen next week.  As part of the decoration we will mount the flat screen TV on the wall in the Living Room and discard the base of the huge cabinet left behind by Mrs Thomas.
