the roofing is left to do


Guest

712 views

I have the porch trim installed, I have one piece of trim left for the short side railing (I had five pieces for some reason & no, it's not a sill; I used all those (inside the house). I looked high & low for the "embossed 'L'" the instructions referred to for porch post placement, but there wasn't one (or two) so I eyeballed it. Having the porch roof on helped with post placement.blog-13-1115817885_thumb.jpgblog-13-1115817931_thumb.jpgI have shingled the upstairs front, the last two courses of shingles are drying as I type and then the house goes back on its back to finish "washing" the shingles with eggplant paintwater. DH says my "stucco" looks "real" (why would I use a technique that doesn't work? Please don't go there...).blog-13-1115817945_thumb.jpgblog-13-1115817897_thumb.jpgI shall glue the porch roof on tonight to be ready to shingle tomorrow when we get home. DH has routine labs in the AM so we're making tomorrow a "town day" for errands, etc. I hope to finish roofing Friday, and that's really all that's left to do besides making window treatments, rugs & bath fixtures; I'm going to leave some things for DS's SO to do for her niece, and for the purposes of showing this house can be built in two weeks (OK, I'm taking longer than that because I didn't take it with us to White Springs, but I would've been too tired to work on it, anyway) I'll add extra posts & pictures later.Complements of havanaholly
