One Project is Done!

 I can officially report the garage walls and floor are done.

As you can see from the picture [below] the entire interior of

the garage was re-taped and re-painted.  It was an awful 

stinky mess when we first saw the house.  Mildew everyplace

and not to mention the fact that someone left a freezer full of food

[unplugged] sitting in there for months.  

 It will be interesting to see if we can get two cars in there.

 Waiting for the contractor this morning we had time to walk

around the back and re-look at wallpaper for the dining room and

powder room.  I did run {the below paper} by our interior designer.

He suggested using the complimentary paper below the chair

rail {I originally thought it might be a little much} but if he

said it was ok ... then it's ok.  For the powder room wallpaper we 

did a 360 on that {meaning just the opposite in color}

so I need to run that by him for 'approval'.

 I was going batty looking at all the ceiling fans available so 

Wilson took on the task and ordered them from Amazon.

They are ready to be installed.  

 I have found a home for every square foot of carpeting,

all the lighting fixtures that will be replace and just

above everything that will be updated.

 Yes, I have been sewing [actually a lot] since it's so hot outside.

This quilt is for Juan's son.  Juan has helped us so much in doing

things prior to us moving out of Bozman as well as here in the

rental and in the new home.  We are giving Juan the painting

contract so he will start on the interior next week.

Sherman Williams ... West Highland White 

on the walls and a basic ceiling white

for [of course] the ceilings.

I've been trying out some new patterns for American Girl 

clothing ... I'll post them later when I do a new post called ... 

Sewing for Marinna.
