Oh, this room took so very long..I am glad it's done!!!! The window trim in the bay was near impossible to attach and I'm not all that happy with the job. I hope draperies will cover what makes me mad. I had to use a mirror to get the trim in and that can be so confusing. Left is right and right was tough. I will be putting either a cushion there to sit on or using it for plants.
The back door is not glued in yet. There's work to be done on the exterior around there, plus I want to put in a stained glass instead of just plain glass. The fireplace is one that came with the kit with a few additions to it.
After all the time spent in here, I'm at a loss of words to say now. Just tired, I guess. I should have more to say, but am ending this here for today.
Next, the hallway on the second floor, but it'll be a few days before I pick up where I left off. I have other things to do and, honestly, just need to get out of the house for a while. I'll go back in on the weekend.

wonderful photos! the doors and trims look gorgeous! :D
Thank you, my dearie....I love the Houseworks look so much better. I wish I could have afforded the windows too, but.....the trim was a toughie, especially in the bay, and I'm not as happy, but it's good for it to be done.
Now, up the stairs and finish that hallway...after a short breather.
Beautiful!
I love the floor especially.
I'm so proud of those floors, Judy, and I learned a lot from Larry Marshall while working on them. They are a thin mahogony veneer with Cabernet stain and a 50/50 mixture of Bullseye shellac and denatured alcohol. The decorative parts are scrapbook trims.It's even more beautiful in real life. I appreciate your comment so very much. Thank you.
