Last Room cont....

Wow, we are done with the last room except for a few pieces of trim which we need to go to Portland for.  I just hope we will be able to find some!  It has to match the old 1895 trim that is around the window and door, so got my fingers crossed that we can find a piece. The last coat of Varathane went on last night and it looks great!  Now comes the fun part...decorating!  This room has had it's challenges for sure but we are very happy with the result. The board and batten went up pretty easily, it was time consuming but worth it!  Of course the walls are not straight, so trying to make everything look level was.........shall we say interesting?
   Have also been working on a few other projects around the house.  Stained and got the rest of the trim up in the big bathroom, so that room is DONE!  Love saying that!  Bought and painted the trim pieces for the black and white bathroom, so those can go up this week.  
  I got my food handlers license!  So now we need to get the health inspector down to check things out and see where we are on that. We are thinking of having our open house in June, stay tuned for updates on the date. 
   There are a lot of little finishing touches to do, but will work through them room by room.  Must make lists!
