3rd Floor Nearing Completion

Wood floors done, wallpaper and bead board in 3rd floor bedroom! Can start work on baseboards and doors now.

3rd Floor Goings On

While waiting for the 2nd coat of polyurethane to dry on my wood floors, I finished the bead board ceiling pieces and attached them in the bedroom.

I also got most of the wallpaper hung, just need to trim up and then add chair rail.

Recent work on the Thornhill

Meant to get a shot of the 3rd floor plaster walls. OK added this too...

In the meantime, here's the shots of the baseboard, the dry dining room tile and the stairs in process. And I ordered from Earth N Tree the 3/8 cherry stripwood for the 3rd floor. I'll take a picture of my template - its done with "For Sale" signs from a hardware store. See below.

I actually used these same signs for the ceiling 'template' that I attached my bead board to.

Doors stained and installed

Finally finished the door staining and have installed most of them. I ended up going over them with the stain pen, to get that same darker cherry as the windows.

 MBR - looks very rich with the wall color.

Bath - got to finish the chair rail now in same stain.

Conservatory off MBR

I also stained and put together the ceiling for the 3rd floor sitting area. The ceiling piece has now been installed, and will need to cut and attach the beams, as well as hang the light fixture.  Beams on each end and then a few across.

I antiqued this fixture - was black.

3rd floor

I'm contemplating the attic, the middle room. I think I'll do the bead board on the angled ceiling, much like I did with the kitchen ceiling, and adding vertical beams.

Here's the beadboard in the kitchen:

Here's the 3rd floor room..

Here's Whitledge Burgess and how they did it....what I'm modelling after.
