Gardens in full bloom

 All of our gardens are going crazy. They will need some major cutting back and redistributing this fall.

 4th of July buntings are out.

Sanding and finishing floors

 We needed to sand the master bedroom floor since the carpet had been ripped up so we decided to do the living room and stairs too to eliminate some of the dog scratches in the wood. First up was moving all the furniture out.


Then the floor was sanded to remove all the old paint.
 First coat of urethane.
 Third coat of urethane.
 Refinished stairs
 Refinished living room


Kitchen Cabinet

 We finished up all the stained glass pieces to install on the doors and sides of the cabinet. Then we moved it in place in the corner of the kitchen.
 The shelves and drawers were made and painted.
 Then we installed an outlet on the back side of the cabinet.
 The top molding was put in place, as well as the glass sides and doors.
 And we have a completed cabinet! It's nice to have some upper shelves to put dishes on.
