Just add bubbles...

The tile work is now complete, and all of the bathrooms are simply divine! Unique design and unique tile and spa-like finishes, they just make you want to spend all day getting ready.

Tomorrow is cabinet day so we will all be holding our breath to see how big the master bathroom cabinet really is, and if Joe and Tony have enough muscles to lug it up to the second floor. If not, perhaps I will need to pitch in - NOT! We'll be hanging cabinets all weekend, so stay tuned for an updated photo of the completed kitchen.

That's all for now, Becky

Drumroll, please...

TaaDaa - Now showing - the Januzsewski Fireplace! This one is sure to be the centerpiece of the home - We'll paint the interior arch and find some great artwork or vases to complete the look. The next picture is the foyer floor - featuring their fabulous medallion, artful tile work and a 5" wood picket border. Check out the great front door as well - It is an extremely elegant and inviting foyer!

This-n-That...

I took a ride out Crown Point today to preview the tile before Stacy did - I believe the tile guys must have worked all night to put that much tile down in such a short time:). The kitchen floor and all of the bathroom floors were done. After a quick climb up the makeshift stairs that you basically have to crawl up and back down, and some quick photos of the floors, I took a walk around the house. To my surprise, the siding was going on (a lovely color called Autumn Tan - which works so well with the brick - good pick, guys), and the audio guys were digging a trench in the backyard. I was so surprised to see Pete (who is usually inside pulling wire) with a shovel, that I stepped in an ooey gooey slimy puddle of mud with my brand new fall shoes - so I had to go and rub them around in a patch of grass before I got into my car.

Stay tuned for some pics of the new tile work, and the oh-so-breathtaking fireplace design. It's worth the wait!

That's all for today:)

Tile Tile and More Tile

This week is a busy week for the Crown Point House. We're building the fireplace, beginning the trim work, and laying down tile. Met with the homeowner (Stacy) today to lay out the tile/wood inlay pattern - which is always a tedious process - however, Stacy had her handy dandy photo album with her with pictures of the model, so it was a piece of cake (thanks, Stacy!). There were four tile guys bouncing around the house, so I'm sure it won't be long before we will have updated pictures and their new and delicious flooring! Stay tuned for updated photos as we prepare for trim work, cabinets and more!! I can smell the turkey dinner now:).

Drywall and ceilings going in

This is the ceiling in the great room. We also did a cool ceiling in the dinning room.

The house is at the point now that things are going to happen fast. The next 4 weeks the house will turn into a home.

stay tuned!

The front looks sharp!

The house is bricked and looking sharp. We passed the rough inspections this week. We are insulating now and will be doing the drywall next week.

Pool is in lets party

It is a good thing the pool got dug because shortly after that it rained 4". Now it is Mike's private frog pond.
