With Christmas and family visiting in West Palm Beach, I have taken a little time off from updating the blog, but not from working on projects around the house. Over the Christmas Holidays we had the pleasure of a visit from my daughter Sandra and her husband J.W. He and I had a chance to work together for a few days doing trim work and installing base cabinets and hooking up the dishwasher. This was all in preparation for the countertops which have been ordered.
First we leveled and anchored the cabinets to the wall and installed the dishwasher.
Here is a view of the dishwasher hookup. It hurt a little bit to cut a 2" hole in a brand new cabinet.
Here are a few pictures of the hallway and doorway trim. Much more to do, but a good start. We are duplicating the original door trim style from the period when the house was built.
Using a chair rail molding to separate the beadboard from the plastered walls in the hallway.
Trim around pantry door
Trim around guest bedroom door
Trim around the caretaker's bedroom :0)
Trim around the 4' hallway that connects the living room in the front of the house to the kitchen/dining/office area in the back of the house.
