Seriously, Almost Done

I realized that I hadn't posted any pictures of the exterior in quite a while. There are still a few things to do, like some of the window surrounds need to be replaced and the deck and balcony need to be tiled, and of course, my front door needs to be painted red. It's an awesome red from the Disney paint collection called 'Mickey's pants', need I say more?



The tile around this fireplace is a really bright cobalt blue, unfortunately, I am not an experienced enough photographer to make the color show up.



This fireplace has copper and cobalt tiles which form diamond shapes.



This is a corner china hutch that stands between the kitchen and front room.



This is an updated view of the kitchen.



I love my island. I wanted it to look as though it could be a piece of furniture we picked up at an antique store or at an estate sale. It sits up off the floor on 9" feet and is quarter sawn oak with an inset face. Believable?



I also love the harlequin above the range, it is obviously a reoccurring theme through out the house.



One of my other favorite things about the kitchen (and house) is my extra large, Shaw's farm sink. Someday I will post a picture of the expected baby bathing in this sink.

Almost There

Sorry, it's been busy around here. The kitchen is getting there. There are a # of doors missing and the panels for the dishwasher have not yet arrived, and of course the hardware has yet to be put on, but we are close.










This is the view from the kitchen.



We are still waiting for the tile for our fireplace, but the cobalt blue chandelier is in.



This is a little view of the half bath.



A very obstructed view of the laundry room.



Above is Abram's bath.




Master bath.






Our master bath is very vintage with the exception of all of Brad's shower gadgets.





I have yet to put the crystals on the girl's chandeliers, but their rooms are turning out very pretty and feminine.




I love their bathroom lights. Instead of craftsman (like the rest of the house), they are slightly Victorian which suits a girl's bath.



The basement bathroom counter.




Brad was given free reign to choose colors and such for the 2 above areas: his kitchenette and his music room. If these areas don't scream Brad, I don't know what does.
