A few Before and Afters

There are so many many many steps that have gone into each bedroom to take it from where they were to where they need to be. Yes, the wall paper in Room 3 was very old and quite cool but we've been cleaning everything up. Stripping (not easy), Plastering, Sanding, Caulking, Puttying, Sanding, Sanding and finally Painting (which includes trim/window painting which is incredibly time consuming but so worth that clean, crisp edge) to take hundred year old walls and make them as smooth as we can manage.

After


Early on in the demo days we discovered a wall in Room 5 that was hiding some beautiful brick that we opted to uncover (so it could breathe). This week we filled the brick and cleaned it up (with the expertise of our local Chimney Charlie) and its looking very cool.
