Lots of activity

First, here you can see one of the new garage doors that was just installed this week. We will have them painted to look a little more wood-like: they eventually will have some faux hardware to make them look a bit like carriage house doors.

Here's a shot of our "paint library" we've got going. So far, 10 different paint samples (and counting). Hopefully we are close to making a decision. Lisa is going to revisit the site in the next day or so, after the paint has had a chance to dry out more, to see what they look like. At our builder's suggestion, each of us wrote down a list of paint colors in preferences #1 to #5, without telling the other, and then compared. We were different, but not too far off. More later....


Along with garage doors and paint, the cabinets have arrived! Here's a shot of the kitchen cabinets. And earlier this week we decided on the hardware (drawer/cabinet pulls). There were a few "Oops" things with the cabinets: the upstairs built-ins came with the wrong wood variety for the tops, and the built-ins around the family room fireplace were too wide to accommodate any kind of stone wrap around the fireplace. Both are being addressed.
