From the album: San Franciscan Interior
I made a huge faux pas, I made the loo the largest of the room in the San Franciscan....before proceeding I decided to switch the master with the bathroom....it required re-flooring the bathroom, removing the tile walls and wallpapering. The drapes which I made and stitched every little ring to the drapes and then hung them on the rod I made....to say I way annoyed was an understatement. In the end it was worth every sore fingertip...the master bedroom is elegant and airy yet welcoming. The Bespaq settee sits in front of the windows so the mistress can put on her shoes or read a chapter or two. The lingerie chest holds some of her beloved items....the bed, I soldered and painted and covered with linens from Wendy Dollhouse. The night stand, an HOM kit ....the armoire is painted and the door pulls are glass beads from my Mom's collection...she used these same beads in making each of us a beautiful Christmas stocking...the final touch, a June Clinkscales piece so that the mistress can step unto the bed when she's ready to retire for the evening. Some finishing touches are still needed, but I couldn't be more pleased with how she's coming along.- 9 comments

The foundation, walls, and long frames are glued and everything seems to fit (no egregious gaps). The windows are not glued in yet, that will happen after the interior is complete.- 2 comments

All the window parts. After sanding, filling, sanding, and more sanding, painting, sanding, painting and sealing, the windows are ready for assembly. I chose to glue the top frame in and only the bottom frame opens. This helped make a rigid window frame that can be handled without falling apart. Notice the gluing jig I made for assembly. -

15 windows, 11 pieces per window, 161 total pieces. Nice to have that bit finished. -

I skinned the interior walls with 2.7mm (7/64") plywood. It matches up nicely with the long frames. I'll just need to spackle the small gaps and I will have smooth walls for finishing. -

Possible stain color for the porch decking. I like it because it matches the pink trim, hope my sister likes it also. -

I plan on corner windows and a window in the center of the side wall. Probably casement windows. -

The wrap-around porch and kitchen addition. The roof of the kitchen will be a balcony off the master bedroom. As you can see, I haven't figured out where the door will be. The open space isn't it either. Maybe next time I'll plan ahead better. Thank goodness for glue and spackle. -

this is probably the longest build in recorded history! At least it feels that way to me! Finally finished the flooring on the first floor. Now on to trim and molding -

I finally painted the outside of my house. Its a purple color with white trim and the shingles are painted a charcoal grey. Have not put in windows yet and not sure when I will.
