I'm grouting my window!!!!

15 years ago

I just couldn't wait to see how it was looking!!! I was disappointed that it will take 2-4wks to get the window installers to put this window in the front door, Nanaimo is Booming with building right now! So the guy said he will look into someone coming out to my house (on their own time) and doing it, so it might be sooner!! Anyhoo, I couldn't stand it, I needed a grout fix and as you can see...I'M IN LOVE!!!!

It's not my gardens I'm unhappy with, it's my HOUSE!

Hi mxk3, I feel the same way about my house (butter yellow asbestos "siding" with maroon shutters and a concrete stoop for a "front porch"). I'm trying to convince my dh to at least build a small porch or portico, he says that once we landscape the front yard this year, nobody will be looking at the stoop. I'm not convinced :). I agree that white's not my favorite color for a house, at least not in our area. Maybe in a place like New England with a different style house entirely, it would be another story. But if you're sticking with white, I do like the combination of white and navy (say, shutters or trim). I don't know if that would be too stark a contrast for you or not. But it also sounds like painting the brick to match whatever color siding you end up choosing is a very doable option too...in which case, what color would you like your house to be :)? I think different styles of house kind of lend themselves to different colors, so please do post a pic if you can.

I have no idea if any is there now, but I HAVE seen snow on top of Halleakala (I know I've butchered the spelling of that volcano peak) on the island of Maui, so it WOULD be possible.

Wow, wow, wow. Maybe I do need a ring saw! I would love to do one of these for my DD who is friesian nuts. I think it needs a Dutch name as these guys came from Holland. What intricate work. Great job. Jeanne

Hi Silva- Just wanted to mention that there's some of those plates all cut up on eBay right now. Prices are ~30-32 for 100 and 125 tiles. Yes, a little pricey, but for the number of tiles that were in the auctions, it definitely beats the price of the plate at Replacements.com (upwards of $25 for one plate). I think there's definitely more tiles in the auction than you would get out of a single plate. The seller's shop is CoCoMo's something-or-other if you're interested.
