You want floors? We got floors!

Things are progressing very smoothly with the house.  Fast enough to make us nervous about selling the current one on time.  We now have walls that are sheetrocked and taped, doors that are locked, and a cement floor in the garage.  AND we are having the wood floors put in this week! 

Mike and his dad flew over the house and  got clearance to fly down lower and took pictures of the house from the sky!  So cool!  We could see Pinewood Lake and how it was a little frozen  in the middle, we could almost see Hidden Pond (it is hidden, after all!).

Front Door Colors

We have to pick a color for the front door. After some googling about feng shui, I found a great list of door colors on House Beautiful .  I really liked Evening Sky (BM 833).  I researched further and found the meaning of a blue door . Although our door doesn't face south, north or east, I really like the thought of a blue door, especially with our stream and the blue dining room. I think the door will tie it all in together. 

Color Me Whine!

Egad! We have to pick paint for the entire house. It was hard enough picking the siding color, and that turned out wonderfully. We would blindly ask people what color we should have for the house, and everyone said the same thing "Scottish Thistle". (Mastic Carvedwood 44) WOW! It looks fantastic. I still can't determine what color it is though. Depending on the light and time of day it looks gray, green, brown. It's a camouflage. That's why I like it, it blends in with the woods and does not stick out. We were able to get some trim put on the front windows and on the edging. People forget that a small trim can add a nice finished look to a house.
