I finished work early yesterday so that I could head to the house, perhaps catch my PM and have our regular Friday chat, perhaps see if the Stain issue was resolved (it wasn't yet). He wasn't there, no workers inside but the garage was open, so I thought I'd take a look..
That white thing in the garage on the left is my door molding freshly painted..
Also lots of stuff in and around the garage.. I have lights on the outside.
Here is a closeup of the light, I think it's nice. also here is the Buck-Eye stone.
It looks great with the Spanish Olive, it has hints of olive greens and the dull red is a good contrast.
Random socket outside the front door.
Megan and I have been waiting to see the flooring we picked, here is a small peak at the Yorkshire Aubern
We have it throughout the whole First floor and it is stunning. Can't wait to post a better shot, I wasn't willing to lift up all the cover to get a shot. No other flooring is done.. it's been so long I forget the color of the carpet!
Finally... I noticed something on the outside of the house.. we did get a floodlight next to our window on the second floor, as our yard is long and would require some light for the dogs at night, umm..... I don't see it up there.. although my PM did say electrical did have it.. I"m hoping it's just covered up with siding.. =/
June 8th can't come quick enough!!
Love the stone/siding combination! We are doing Spanish Olive too but didn't have that choice for stone. We could only do Aspen so we decided to skip it.
ReplyDeleteAlicia - I hope you are as happy with Spanish Olive as we are! I didn't like the front door combinations though, it is black or dark dark green.. I think I'll reprint my door a dark burgundy..
DeleteYeah I'm a little nervous about how ours will come together. We are doing all siding and we've never seen our model with all siding. We also picked white shutters which we haven't seen either! The door is the dark green but our door has the big window so I'm thinking it won't matter much. I figure worse case scenario we paint the door and shutters later-hoping we love it though!
DeleteGreat stone and hardwood! I also love the way they mounted the light - gives it a nice finished look.
ReplyDeleteWJ - I love it too. I'm eager to see it all at night!
DeleteThe mounts for the lights do look sharp.
DeleteThomas - Thanks! I agree. Btw, thanks for posting great ideas on you blogs, some items on there I think about, but never research. As my house has only one floor level window, I'm worried about my door integrity.
DeleteI love the combination of your color siding and stone. It looks fantastic! They do not offer the Spanish Olive. Great job!
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame! I'm glad you found a good combination!
