July 2018 - How's your house build going?
Comments (260)Thanks all! lindavana - we got the light from Metro Lighting, its a Capital Lighting Chandelier, 4912BI, you can get in 8 or 12 lights. drbevdc - thanks!, my boyfriend is a big beer geek and this was his special request, we love how it turned out. Everyone raves about our open shelves, found them on Etsy and we love the navy cabinets. ILoveRed - curtains are our only window treatments on the main floor and since we are city living we were not sure how much everyone can see into our house, so they had to go up right away. I had purchased the curtains in advance so they were ready to go. We had the brackets hung by the construction team before we closed, so it was "easy" for me to jump up and hang them...i dont do heights very well and was a little scared since the ceilings are 11' tall, but I got them up! Rugs were all from our old house and the right size so easy to just lay down, whew....See MoreAugust 2019 - How is Your Home Build Going?
Comments (306)NewEnglandgal I think it’s fine. Here are some ideas on what you could do to build it down a bit if you still think it’s too high. You could put some pretty brackets underneath. Or another board flat to look like an apron under the shelf! I think these designs look great and they have the stone too. Don’t want to catch your Christmas stockings on fire! Maybe that’s what they were thinking. Also the further back your furniture is I think it is actually better tv viewing. You will have room for a nice coffee table too....See MoreSeptember 2019 - How is Your Home Build Going?
Comments (263)NYCish I somehow missed your post! Your kitchen is so pretty and that island is big! Are you getting excited while waiting a slow death? lol I am trying ti imagine your nuclear system but that kinda stuff befuddles me. The iron work will complete everything outside. Looking really good! Buzz chipping your tooth now? be careful up there girl, that wind will blow you away! Junk looks like it is going up fast! Kathy so happy things are getting done now. Getting so exciting for you I bet. I started the October Build Thread- https://www.houzz.com/discussions/5797658/october-2019-build-a-new-home...See MoreOctober 2019 Build A New Home
Comments (221)@ Trish Walter We had a 2 story foyer in our last home we built and I regretted it. It was impossible to deal with cobwebs. And cleaning the second story window up above. HA! Never again. Of course we're building a ranch now so I'll only have 9 foot ceilings to worry about. Hal and I knocked out the remaining fascia the other day when the weather warmed to a balmy 56F. You can't really tell between this photo and previous ones because I had already primed the fascia just in case, but nevertheless, that trim is done. Corner molding next. I am still trying to talk Hal into replacing the inside corner trim with a blue one because I think it looks weird next to the front door, but at this time he isn't concerned about looks so much as getting stuff done. Maybe next year. Easy fix just costs time and money....See Moresnowcountry
