Refinished Floors
• 23 July 2009
At least one room in the house is almost completed. I'm in denial that we are 3 days away from moving into La Maisonnette and there still isn't a toilet, a bathroom sink, or a spatula in the house. Veteren renovators, please tell me this is normal...:) Trying to keep the kids out of the mess is another story (the Husband is meeting with the community summer camp director as I write to try and see if our oldest two can be otherwise diverted with fun activities). That will leave my two-year-old and I to clean up La Maisonnette. I'm laughing to myself thinking about the logisitics of that situation...talk about keeping life interesting!
wow it looks so beautiful. i love that wood tone.
ReplyDeleteThat wood is beautiful. Do you know how old it is?
ReplyDeleteAs a veteran renovator: this is totally normal. Always budget 30% more time and money than you'd expected.
ReplyDeleteBut the finished work is so, so beautiful. Nice work.
It looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was young we lived a couple months with just a microwave. This was when they first came out, cookbooks where everywhere for wonderful dinners cooked in them. After that I think we stuck to just heating things up.
Hopefully you get running water and a toilet quickly!
Steph it's looking lovely! Sounds like you guys are having a great time. Visit me @ the shop when you're back. Take care.
