This past weekend was a busy one!  Trying to meet the Monday morning deadline for Jeff, the floor guy, to start his work, we decided we had to be finished with several odds and ends.  Odds and ends are the annoying little things that seem to take the most amount of time!

Radiators were painted and the window hardware was reinstalled.  We chose white wooden blinds for the windows to highlight the beautiful woodwork.



Next, the ceiling fans were installed...



...and the Bose surround sound speakers were wired for sound.



Bright and early Monday morning, Jeff arrived and started working on the well-used floor boards.  The unvarnished area in front of the brick wall is where the closets stood that divided this space into two rooms.



After one day of work, the floors are sanded and look fresh and clean.



Over the next two days, some additional fine tuning to the boards was accomplished, stain was applied...



...and the first of three top coats of polyurethane was applied.



Looking pretty good, don't you think?

You guys have great taste and are truly committed to excellence! Thanks for setting the bar HIGH!

What's that hole?


In the floor? It's for an electrical outlet for table lamp, etc.
