This past week/weekend was a flurry of activity. First, our electrician hung the majority of our light fixtures. We still have the ones in the dining room, great room and kitchen center to go up, but you can see how it is really starting to look like a house! Many of the light fixtures are schoolhouse lights. These lights were very popular in the 1920's and remain a "fixture" for many period style homes. I love the simplicity of the milk glass globe that makes everything just feel comfortable to me.
Flooring was also on the list of priorities this weekend. Namely, the Marmoleum flooring for our kitchen, bathrooms, laundry room and the garage hallway and main foyer. It turned out wonderfully, and I look forward to walking on it for many years to come! Ronnie and Craig also installed most of the hardwood in the master bedroom. Two rooms down, and only...a lot to go :)
Keith got the bathroom vanities in and the sink tops. Next week the plumber should be in to hook up all toliets and install the faucets. He will also be finishing the lower level plumbing work and installing the hose bib, and then we can have the well tested.
Lastly, but not leastly (not a word, but fun to say :), in less than 24 hours, our kitchen cabinets are being installed. I will let you know next week if I sleep at all tonight with the excitement and anticipation!
