Day 143 - Stair Railing Finished and Other Details

All of the rails are complete now and we think they look awesome! We love the dark stain on the banister and newel posts! This is the same color that will be on our hardwood floors. The pictures below are from Saturday, but we did stop in during the day on Friday to figure out what kind of towel and toilet paper holders we needed for our bathrooms (which turns out to be a bit tricky in our bathroom). We got to talk to the painter (who was a very nice guy) as he was painting the trim while we were there. All of the doors were off upstairs and it looked like all of the nail holes were puttied in the trim. Stone was supposed to start this past Friday and they were supposed to work through the weekend but they were finishing up a job and then it rained on Saturday. So we will see when they actually start...only supposed to take 2 days to do it. The appliances will get delivered this Monday. We are thinking that we have about 3 weeks to go until we are ready to move in. We are getting so excited and are starting to feel the reality set in.

  1. Stain hardwood
