Interior Doors

Interior doors are in and mostly installed. They look really great. Per Adam's suggestion we went with solid core 1-3/4" thick shaker style wood doors, 7' tall by Simpson Door. We ended up going with 4 panels rather than 2,3 or even 5. I thought the 4 and 5 panel doors gave more of a "farmhouse" feel. I'm realizing throughout this process there are so many decisions that I didn't anticipate having to make. Not that I didn't want to choose the doors but I guess when we started this journey I didn't think about all the details that come along with it. We also talked today about closet doors for the upstairs, sliders or actual doors?, for the master closet door we have a unique idea that I am really excited about, so stay tuned for that one.

Below are the doors, they are primed but will eventually be painted white along with all the trim.

The upstairs bath is coming along nicely as well, the tile is almost complete. The vanity will be painted by "The Interior" and we are going to go with some sort of grayish color to pull out the color in the tile floors. We have even talked about given it a distressed wood look that I'm excited about. For the vanities and the kitchen island Adam suggested we design them to look more like furniture rather than built-ins and I really love the uniqueness (at least to me) of this idea. We are hoping to get bids for the cabinets and get them ordered next week.

Upstairs Bathroom:

Siding & Upstairs Bath Floor

The house is continuing to come along. Adam has finished most of the lower level siding. The lower level is board and batten siding and the upper level will be a shingle similar to what was there. When Adam initially told me about the board and batten (vertical) siding I was slightly hesitant because I was not familiar with it. But I trusted it would look good and was excited to have something different than the typical horizontal siding we see in this area. I do like the way it has turned out so far and I have had several compliments from others who have driven by and seen it. Below are a few pictures.

The upstairs bathroom floor is pretty much complete. We went with a 1" hex mosaic tile with a single row of 4x4 tiles as a border.

We are expecting the upstairs vanity from Feser Cabinets late next week. Excited to see this bathroom put together. :)
