This is What's New



The exterior is pretty much ready to be painted as soon as the temperature warms up a bit.



The half bath's subway tile wains coating is above.



Above is our mostly finished entry way (our house is filthy with sawdust).



This is Abram's (and the new baby's) bedroom wall with the built in and bath.



This is the other wall in the bedroom.



The above is one of the girl's rooms, both of their rooms are the same, just flipped.



This is the front room, and the start of that fireplace mantel.

Columns and Floors



Our exterior columns were added today, along with some stone.







The above are all pictures of the wood flooring on the main floor. It appears darker when standing in the kitchen area. When over on the north/west side (where all the windows are) they appear lighter and the grain is more visible.

The Latest

Here is a photo update of what has been happening on Ravencrest.







The bitter cold has made the exterior slow going. Obviously, the hardy plank, shaker shingles, and the board and baton need to be painted so don't get nervous about the color variation.



The ceiling in the family room has way too many lights because the original ones were off center.



The master shower isn't quite finished but this is a preview.



Abram's shower is a light green and black.



The basement shower is white subway and noir glass.



The girls' bathroom tub surround has grape and steal blue glass.

More Tile

Can you tell that I am excited about our tile?

This is the half bath on the main floor.



This is a rec/play dough/painting area for the kids.



This is the basement bathroom floor tile.

Tile

Here are some photos of the recent tile work.



The master bath is above.



The above is the girl's jack and jill bath (you may need to click on it to see the detail).



Above is the mudroom floor.



The red and off-white harlequin is the laundry room (too bad that floor is hidden in the laundry room).

Anyway, more to come.

Stay tuned and let me know what you think.

Relatively Boring

But things are about to get interesting!



It's slow going, but the exterior will begin this week (hopefully).




The drywall is complete. This is the view from the kitchen into the family room.



From the family room into the kitchen.



The living room.



The master.





Both of the above are in the basement.

OK, so I know these are dull photos, but tomorrow the tile begins and our tile is very eclectic. So even if you don't particularly like the tile, at least it will be something to look at.
