Decorative wood

Part of the "finishing fun" is to see the special woods arrive. Though our house is far from exotic, appreciating the many wood designs and finding people who continue to practice wood working has been a pleasure. The door frames are so complex, we will be using seven separate wood pieces to complete each side. Until we began this process, we never even realized how much craftsmanship went into every door.
Door framing is a close imitation of the original.

Baseboards arrive crafted by a local wood worker. A blade that perfectly matches the old baseboard has been created to produce our matching baseboards.


Wall space is used as drying racks due to the extreme heat outside.
