Our House

In our continuing effort to spend even more money on the house, this past week we had Fun With Crown Molding. It's already been added to the dining room, and we matched the mantel of the downstairs fireplace with the molding above it. The master bedroom will *get* molding...just as soon as they can get a smaller version (it didn't fit - heh). But in the meantime, I'm giving you a sneak preview of not only the molding, but also the marble that will surround the master bedroom fireplace as well. The interior is mostly painted now, and they've started on the exterior. We're still working on what color the trim will actually be, but you can get a sense of how it will look (sans trim) both front and back (just a note - the windows look all blurry because they're coated in plastic. It has nothing to do with my ability as a photographer (or distinct lack thereof)). That pretty rose color you see on the gables is called "Painted Lady", and the buttery yellow is "Covington Cream". I only mention these nitpicky details because I knew you were all dying to know. Really you were. Trust me on this one.
