Does anyone have white windows/trim AND stained interior doors?
Comments (21)nepool, I love the picture in your first post. That door is beautiful and it looks so nice with the wood floor and the whole room. Are cased windows something a lot of people do? We have never had cased windows. Of course we have a window sill but not cased. Maybe it's a regional thing. Since you have stained trim maybe you can answer a questions for me. I am concerned that if I do all stained that it will limit paint choices in the future. My house has all white except the kitchen cabinets. I remember when we painted the kitchen having to find a color that went with the cabinet color (some stains have more red or yellow in them). My sister has stained trim and doors (in her words, ugly stained trim) and when she painted a room and didn't think about the trim and the dark blue doesn't look like she had expected next to the dark trim. I have a dark blue room with white trim and the contrast is striking. We don't even have a floor plan yet and these details are driving me crazy....See MoreDoes anyone have exposed brick?...in an attached house
Comments (1)I don't have it here in my home BUT the place I use to work at had it. Much depends on the age of the brick and the type of brick you have. Some brick is soft, some hard. Age has alot to do with it. Exposing soft brick to air will speed up it's break down IF it's not sealed and maintained properly. Removing plaster from brick damages the brick so you end up with similar problems to someone with soft brick....See Moredoes anyone have brick floors?
Comments (43)We have 1/2" glazed pavers on the "racetrack" of our home (the loop that runs between the dining room and living room and through the kitchen). They've been there 30 years and still look great. I think if I had been the one to install them I'd have used a darker grout. But then I was in another state in the 7th grade when the decision was made. There is actually a small pile of them in a corner of the yard (yes, no one who has ever lived here has ever dealt with the pile. Amazing, no? But there is also a pallet of original bricks. Don't even ask.) I'll have to go pull one out and see if there is a manufacturer's mark on it....See MoreHas anyone done an exposed brick look on an interior wall?
Comments (22)I have done brick interior walls twice. Thin brick is ridiculously expensive, so I made my Higgins jig and cut regular brick with a 20" brick saw that I rented. I ended up paying a bit less than a dollar per square foot for brick slips. The second time I just used queen brick as I was installing over a footer and the engineer approved full brick. Once you factor in time it was even cheaper....See Morebonnieann925
