The office a work in progress

The office still has many things to come but so far it has two key pieces that I love.

I found them in a local store new made to look old. Both of them are really meant to be used for something else but I really thought the would work well in our office.

Next up is to buy some filing cabinets. So hard to find wood filing cabinets that are old looking.

I have a plan just need to put my mind to it.

Entryway

Finally got the chandelier hung just in time for Christmas

I already had the metal Indian cutout but thought it needed something more so I found someone to make me the buffalo and now it just looks more finished

Still undecided on what picture to hang above the fireplace but for now it is a painting of my dad.

Planning on changing out the coffee table for something more rectangle. I don't like how this one gets lost in front of the big couch. Also still not happy with the area rug in this room. But there was a rush to get things done before all the family arrived for Christmas.

I have ordered custom curtains for the patio doors. Hopefully to arrive soon.
It will help finish off this space and hopefully deaden some of the sound.

That's it for the main room. 

Move in day November 16

Ok, People have been demanding I update the house blog with the rest of the story. (Debbie and Donna)

So I will start off with moving day.It was the years worst story every -30C and wind blowing 70 km/hr. So basically we moved in the beds, TVs, and computers.

Almost time

We were all set to move in on Monday but a small code issue with the mantel on the fireplace has moved us back a couple of days. Just in time for a could front to move in a dump snow on us. Everything is pretty much done just the final cleaning and some touch ups.

October 26th

The floors are all done but they are covered with plastic to protect them so no pics. My mom requested more pics of the news stuff. Here it is mom then back to work.

Up date October 13

They have told us we will be able to move in by November 15th. Seems like there is a lot to do between now and then. All the rock work is done now and the hardwood should be done by the end of this week. Tiles is progressing and the electrical is being done right now.

Sept. 15 beams and front door

Hi All,
The end is in site. Thanks goodness. Things are getting a little tense in the old fifth wheel. The weather has been cold and rainy not giving us much to do except sit around and get on each other nerves. The front door was installed today and it is so pretty. Unfortunately you will not get to see it fully because it is covered with plastic to protect it from the workers. The beams have all been stained as well. All the stain basically matches the kitchen cabinets as well. All the wood is Knotty Alder. The walls are not painted yet but all the trim has been painted. Painting is next and then the floors will be installed first the tile and then the hardwood.
