The House: House Update: November 22nd Edition

This is the week where the house goes from 0 to 60!

They've finished all the siding on the house now. The front still needs to be painted, but the details are almost all done. See, they've even got most of the stonework done on the front.

It's lookin' nice, eh?

The guy was almost done cutting the pieces for this cap this evening. I love that they did it in stone.

Yesterday at 4ish the cabinet guys arrived. They worked almost 12 hours straight (two of them) and got the cabinet boxes all installed (except the powder room which they do after the tile floor is in.) This is the laundry room where the sink will go.

And across from the sink above my washer/dryer.

Here's a close up of the counter top that is in the kitchen and [this is] the laundry room. In this room we decided to do the brown because we didn't have a sample of the flooring and wanted to pick something fairly neutral. In the kitchen we went with brown because we weren't sure what accent colours we'd use with all the brown. By going with brown counter tops we can do any colour for accents.

Here's a view of the kitchen. My head doesn't quite come up to the halfway mark on those upper cabinets. I'm going to be investing in a step stool for the kitchen!! The brown box standing all by itself here in the left corner is the powder room cabinetry.

Here's the living room with the fireplace finished.

A close up of the powder room cabinet. They finished laying the tile in there today. It has to dry and get grouted before they put this in.

Here's the 12X12 tile we put in here though:

And a close up of the counter tops we put in the three bathrooms. I love it SO much and almost wish we'd just put it in the kitchen. The blue is only super noticeable against the blue paint.
