Last week we had a full crew of electricians, plumbers and painters at the house. I counted 11 men last Tuesday! We were bustling to finish all the details in the upstairs so that Jens Anderson could put the finish coat on the hardwood floors upstairs this week. And we did it! Carpenter Dave instructed me to put colored post-it flags on everything that needed attention. The Renz crew had blue tabs and the Larry Shelly crew had orange tabs - and we got the upstairs DONE.
In the above photo, Justin is working on light fixtures in the Girls' Downstairs Bathroom. I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our work crews, and how patient they are with me and "my ideas".
I just had to show you our "control panel" for the Master Bathroom. Justin: "Would you like your exhaust fan in the bathrooms to be on timers? This way it will automatically turn off at 5/10/15 or 30 minutes." Answer: Yes. And the can lights above the tub are on a dimmer switch! This little panel is too exciting for words to me.
We got the fixture hung on the Master Bedroom Balcony. Those are 4 watt bulbs so I am only using 20 watts for a great effect! Dave also did extensive repair work to this porch last week. We basically rebuild the substructure and re-paneled the floor. Water will never be an issue on this porch again. Guaranteed.
We asked the Renz crew if they could fish the electrical wires so we could add some wall lighting to our large living space. They said yes! (Is there anything they cannot do?) We loved these new PB Clarissa mini-lights which are perfect for the spot. People always ask if they are old. smile. The details on this light fixture are amazing. We are putting the coordinating PB Clarissa Chandelier in our dining room.
There were a hundred little projects for them to do, among which was hanging our PB Jillian Chandelier in the hallway upstairs. This is the chandelier that formally hung above our kitchen table at Casa Blanca. It likes its new home.
