Trim! Part One of Five


Tony has been taking advantage of the extra time we've been spending at home since Iris came into our lives with lots of projects around the house. We have some sense of urgency to get things done before she is more mobile and getting into tools, paint, and anything else that could be left out. 

He just installed this trim in the doorways leading out of the living room. Next he will  be working on matching base board molding for all the rooms upstairs, trim for the front door, window trim, and new doors for the other rooms. It looks so great already I can't wait to see all of it in place!

Notice the paint color around the trim. We are using Sycamore Green from Restoration Hardware. The paint was just tinted today so painting is in the near future as well :)

Sycamore Green is the top color

She's got her daddy's dimples!

My apologies for the lack of posts this past month. We welcomed our baby girl on June 5th and my concept of space, time, life, are forever changed. I haven't had a chance to do much around the house or yard in the past few weeks but I'm hoping to get some things done in the yard during the remainder of my leave....stay tuned for some great before and after pictures! We've got grand plans :)


The name was inspired, in part, by my favorite flower, which just happened to be in bloom when she arrived.
