The green room

Phew! One room down, many more to go. I think this was a good practice room and I think that I will improve with the next one.

This afternoon I finished the final coat on the trim in Sam's room. Then I did a few touch ups, and voila, done!

Looking back out to the retreat. Still need to build the wardrobe internal shelves etc
Meanwhile, downstairs, David finished the pine strapping around the pitched ceiling part of the living room near the fireplace.

 Then he added the detail under the window sils (ovolo profile) for all downstairs windows.
 Also, the insert mould above the windows.

Large window downstairs with trim finished.
 One thing he did last week was to add the architraves to the doors and highlight windows. He had to take the top windows out and adjust them first though.

We just sat down tonight, after putting the kids to bed, and wrote out a to do list. I feel more organised now and am looking forward to crossing more items of the list soon.

Cheers,
Nat
