March 2nd-6th. Hello! This has been a relatively slow week when compared with the rest of the project, but the highlight was the application of paint to the upstairs. Cynthia and I researched several options, and selected colors that are bright currently, but will likely fade to the hue we really want. Most of the house faces south and west, and receives brutal sun and harsh weather throughout the year. Fading WILL happen.
These pictures indicate the application of two of the three colors we selected. The house will additionally have an accent color that will run around the crown molding beneath the eaves, on a bullnose in the middle of the upper trim, and underneath the windows.
Our contractor made a good offer to paint the upstairs portion of the house, something we gladly accepted. I don't want to die!
A small piece of trim was added this week under the window sills to complete the look and provide an additional area for the accent color.
We have heat! The HVAC system has been fully installed and we came home on 2/27 to find our upstairs nice and warm. The register installed by the contractor was not as flush as we'd hoped, however, and we'll be replacing these within the next few weeks.
