Color my world.....

I have received some floor stain samples which of course are not at all what I was expecting. They are much more orange-y. The top dark board was the first sample which we figured was a bit too dark and didn't have enough red in it. Now that we have tried the red colours....
we are liking the dark. Which is a totally different supplier and much more expensive.
Ideally I would like something between these two options.


Ponderosa Pine
the ideal color combo 

The countertop is coming along, this is the second piece. It's not quite finished yet, a bit more filling, polishing and then sealing and on to the next piece. Terr has added another color to the mix to tie it in with the cabinet doors which are a cherry color.





The painting has finally begun. Today the primer will be done and tomorrow the ceilings. This is all being sprayed thanks to an airless sprayer we borrowed from a friend. So I guess by Thursday we will be able to start painting the walls with color. We have chosen similar colors to the Beausejour house for the main areas. The kids have chosen different colors this time around.
We have started building cabinet boxes, so we will carry on with that. Once the kitchen is painted then the cabinets and flooring....oh my we may move in yet.

The speckled painters..... back to work
