April's goings-on

Hi Folks.
Time sure flies when you're having fun!  We are a little behind on the blog, but you must be getting used to that by now.

For the third week of April, the goal was to have the guest quarters above the garage ready for Linda and Barry who were coming on that Friday.  That meant trim, doors, and finishing touches to the bathroom.

Trim, trim and more trim in the garage to be painted

Windows done

Yes, back into messy-mode again

Baseboards done too
 To do our plans for accent tiles in the bathroom, Len had to invent a way to hold them up while they glued.  He used wood to support them, and also used them as guides for straight and true.
Clever supports

Tiles in place

The finished project - minus the grout
The bathroom ready for guests

 On the last day, at 10 pm, Len was gluing down the last of the stair tread carpeting.
Glue and then stapled



Completed stairway
It was great to have the loft cleaned up and ready to go.  All in the nick of time.

  1. Nice touch with the tile and the 3 piece layup for the stair rail! Missed the episode where you finished the garage drywall.
