We went out to the house after dinner tonight, but it didn't look like much had changed. So, I am mostly going on to focus on some things that I picked out today and get your opinion on things I could use some help on!!
To begin, I picked our hardwood flooring out today. On the top picture, you can see the hardwood we are going with. We decided to do a hand-scraped hardwood. I love the texture and I love how it can hide the "dings" that the boys make unintentionally when playing on the wood! Do any of you have hand-scraped? What is your experience with it? I also picked this particular piece because it is a true brown color and it has wide planks, which I LOVE!!
The bottom of this picture is our carpet. I don't know (or care!) much about carpet, so I let Mathew (our flooring guy) help me out! I wanted something neutral and soft - so we picked the bottom carpet. It has gray and brown flecks, so it will work with all of our color schemes throughout the house and also not show everything the boys do to it! Haha!
Below is the color options we have for our house. We are doing a custom siding that is going to be painted, so we need to choose three of these color options. We are for sure doing the "Black Fox" on the peaks, so we need two others. Any favorites?? White trim is going around everything, so it definitely needs to be darker to contrast with the trim. I would love to hear your ideas!
Now, onto the house. They put plywood up around the garage today. Holy cow - our garage is TALL! We had no idea it would be this tall, but it is clearly because it is a walkout...the house needed to be built up in order to accommodate that part of our floor plan.
They also got the trusses done on the top of the main level. I hope that means that the upstairs is coming soon!! YAY!!
There clearly won't be much progress this weekend, but hopefully lots more FUN to come next week!!
